Default Got the z7 whats next?

Im new to bow hunting so im a little in the dark right now on my bow I have the Qad Ultra HD pro rest, a tru glow sight, unknown stabilizer just rubber piece?, an apex quiver, base peep sight I would guess? What kind of upgrades can I make before next season as far as these parts and other parts are concerned? Another thing my draw is at 65lbs... What grain should I be shooting 100? 125? what are the differences? fixed blade or not? Right now I have shuttles Ive been shooting with but ive heard good things about rage and muzzys ?

Thanks,
Mojo

Whats next?? I guess go out and start robin hooding arrows. A friend of my just got his. Been shooting archery for bout 20 years (lots of them competetive). Never hooded an arrow in all that time. 2nd day of shooting his z7 he slide the second arrow right down th emiddle of the first shaft. He says it was all bow.

Depends on your draw length and arrow weight. Each arrow manufacturer have charts for this.

Man, CONGRATS on your Z7 and accessories! You should be good to go with that set-up!!!

What arrows are you shooting? This will allow us to determine what point weight suggestions. However, the 100 grain is obviously going to allow you a LOT more options of all the popular b-heads on the market!

All that's left is to enjoy!!

Just kidding you might always be upgrading this and that if you get bit hard by the Archery bug!
