Default RE: Fred Bear Element

For those of you with the Element, I am interested in details of your set ups.

After all these years my son traded his Remington (740 I think) for a new FB Element. He is not rich and has to add things to his set up one piece at a time. It took me 43 years to get set up. I know his bow is not a Mathews but most of my early years of bow hunting I wasvery happywith all my FB bows (my favorite was the FB Kodiak-I think that's what it was called) and never had any problems-of course those were the Recurve Days and some of those bows stacked but still tool many whitetails and one black bear.

The following is my recommendation for his setup:
1. String Loop 2. Limb Savers, 3. Sims S-Coil stabilizer 4. Scott Sabertooth Release 5. Copper John Scardey Cat (Fall away arrow rest.) 6. Cobra Boomslang 5 pin sight 7. Timberland No-Peep 8. Strap type wrist strap 9. Beman ICS Hunter (target arrows) and Beman ICS Camo Hunter (hunting) 10. 100 gr field tips 11. Sonic 100 brodheads.

Do any of you Element shooters have any comments?

OOPS! One more question-he did not get a manual can you tell me what the draw weight change is for each turn of the limb bolt?
