    MAKIN EM SCARY SHARP

    Well This starts off with a familiar phrase..... I was watching a RF video...... and Troy was voicing his concern that the movement to cut on contacts may result in some guys flinging dull broadheads at animals. I was afraid that I might be one of those guys. I've never sharpened a broadhead...

    Left or right helical?

    It has come to my attention as I search for information on how to build better arrows that the determination of left or right helical for our personal setups is really predetermined....or is it? While bare shaft tuning I was reminded of a video I had watched that shows the natural rotation of an...

    Grizzlystik broadheads (arrow build time :)

    I'm looking to rebuild my arrows for next year and want to know if anyone uses Grizzlystik single bevel broadheads, or the Silver Flame line of double bevel broadheads from Grizzlystik? Heck you might as well let me know if anyone's using the Momentum TDT shafts, or the T-64 shafts from Easton...

    Bad Penetration.....Again

    This morning I had a doe come through at around 7:15 am or so. I was actually in the middle of posting on the Live from the saddle thread when she came through. I put the pin on her and center punched her. I watched the lighted nock go right behind the shoulder. She takes off and I lose sight...

    Who deploys a Doyles gear hoist from the inside of their pack?

    I love my Doyles gear hoist just not on my saddle(which is where it resides now) because it interferes with how my pack sits. and I don't like it on the waist band of my pack. Does anyone deploy it from inside their pack? I recall it being mentioned before but not on an instructional level...

    Wild Edge Step...GAME CHANGER :)

    I was out climbing this past week using my WE steps and knaider/swaider. As I'm removing a step from a pine tree I was climbing I noticed that the step took out a plug of bark from one side and barely any thing from the other side. I looked at the stand offs and noticed, as I have before that...

    Traditional quiver options

    A recent thread got me to thinkin about a quiver for my Samick Sage take down. I see it's got accessory holes in the riser. My question would be, should I get a riser mounted quiver or a quiver that attaches to the limbs? I'm thinkin a 3 or 4 arrow quiver. I used to shoot my compound with the...

    Invasive Species

    I was driving with my wife and we were wondering if the invasive species we are having to deal with up here in Mass is the same around the country? We are coming off 4 or 5 bad years of Gypsy moth infestation that has reeked havoc with the white oaks in the area. We are also dealing with Asian...

    I recently started shooting three under using a glove. Would you traditional shooters recommend a tab, and if so what would be a good one to start with? I went on Three Rivers Archery website and I could use some help in making a first time purchase. I'm certain I like the three under method...

    How do you use a Thermacell

    I just recently started using a personal thermacell. I can see a difference, but I wonder if there's a best use? Is it effective in the wind? It says a 15 foot radius, is that accurate? I saw on the thread, Best and worst gear the thermacell mentioned a couple of times, looking for some folks...

    PERCH review

    Alright, the jury is in. I've had my Perch for a week. First thing you notice is it's ultralite. It has a great surface, which relates to good traction. I found that if I tied my stepp on and cammed it over loosely, just enough to hold it in place and then put the Perch on the stepp it wouldn't...

    Anyone using the Predator as a step with the knaider swaider?

    I was reading another thread and someone mentioned using the predator as a step. Is anyone getting that last 5 feet using the platform and a knaider swaider, or other aider? It would be nice to drop a step. Also I'm wondering about the strength of the platform material on that leading edge. In...

    Sage Samick.... to good to be true?

    Hey guys, I'm looking to get a recurve. I saw some reviews on the Sage Samick. Great price, but how is the bow? I have no experience, so I'm going to leave this in your hands. I want to hunt deer with it eventually. Please help.
