RE: how many of you take tools with you?
The only thing I carry into the woods is pruning shears. When we go to West Virginia, I carry a tool box full of tools, parts, etc. The tools and parts aren't for me, I shoot a longbow, but for the other fellas who all shoot compounds.
Several years ago I had to setup three bows that had just come out of the "Pro Shop" before the fellas left on the trip. Maybe it was the change in elevation, NOT, but I had to move the rest and signt pins closer to the riser to get the string "behind" the arrow. I also had to change the height of the sight pins to get them shooting deadon at 20 yards.
