Tradbow Daily Challenge

Are we gonna do tmattsons balloon challenge for #7?
"Jumping ahead to a future day, maybe get a small baloon, inflate to 3 inches, shoot at 15 yards until you break the baloon, note how many shots it took you - thoughts?"
 
#6. Aiming at the right dot.

No but it’s his quiver I just got. Don’t care for it. Arrows are to close to my hand.
Bow is a Toelke Whistler.

Had the same issue with my great northern strap on....never liked a quiver on my bow. Went to an asbell style. Love it so far.

I have a few others and none was this close. It’s my 1st 5 arrow quiver for a trad bow. Might be part of the reason. I never hunted with my quiver on my compound. But they were easy to take off and mount else where for easy access. Not so with a trad bow quiver, so I made my self like it. I just don’t like this one.
 
Just curious, any you trad guy's shooting wood arrows? Think for a winter project I am going to build some, any tips from those with experience?

I’ve dabbled with it. Bought wood shafts from 3 rivers. Tried to knap my own stone points but never made a good one so bought one. Cut in a nock groove, cut in a groove for my stone point, sinewed the point on, stained the shaft, got it spinning true, shot a coon with it and it ran off with my arrow never to be seen again. Lol
 
One thing that may hold me back is from what I have read, finding a really good set that have decent tolerences for weight, spine, etc., they can actually get pricy, just fpr bare shats.
 
Wood shafts are awesome to shoot. Something about them just feels good when you release the string and they fly stealthy. It might be all in my head but it seems there is something different going on. Maybe just the density of a wood arrow.
Just hard to beat the durability of carbon for a hunting arrow IMO.

#5 pulled my 20 yard shot pretty bad!

Couldn’t quit on that note, so of course after shooting first 3 cold I shot these 3 all from 20...

Any advice on different grip for a Hoyt Satori? I’m very inconsistent with the stock grip...

I’m much more accurate and consistent without it. I’ve tried using vet wrap but it gets all “gummed up”...
