Are you content?
Based on another thread, I'm curious to see who is content with their current set up, and who thinks they need some work either by upgrades or by tuning?
Do you feel your bow and arrow set up will be adequate for the game you hunt? Secondly, do you know of anybody that has a set up that you don't feel 100% comfortable about, be it by their ability or their equipments ability. |
RE: Are you content?
I'm pretty content with my setup, except for the rest. I'm planning to lose the Whisker Biscuit and add a Muzzy ZE rest in about a month. That said, the setup with the Whisker Biscuit would be fine for the hunting I plan to do, but I don't feel that my skill is. That's why I'm starting now getting ready for late October. :)

RE: Are you content?
As A person who likes dual cams and my current Pat is only a single I am upgrading to the new dual cam version.
But I will say that the single cam Pat is more than adequate for any game I hunt. If BT did not bring out the dual cam then I would not be upgrading cause I just love the Pat and the way it shoots. ![]() Aussie by birth Texan by choice |
RE: Are you content?
I'm pretty content shooting 378 gr ACC's at 26" and 70 lbs. However, I did get a failure to penetrate on the thickest part of a shoulder blade this year with a Snyper and am considering using heavier arrows. I've already gone back to fixed blade heads. I would like to get a set of heavier arrows and see how well they shoot.
I am working out a theory that would combine kinetic energy calculations leaving the bow with momentum downrange, call it KEMO. Calculated the same, but multiply the two together, or some variation-I haven't worked on it too much.. Tweaking arow weight might play more of a factor. That way, if the heavier arrow supposedly doesn't slow down as much, that factor is taken into account. Lots of noodling to do on it, but there has to be a way to account for weight "carrying" the energy and transferring it to the target better. The arrow's inertia has to be a factor there. It is just a seat of the pants type of theory, but I think there is some merit to it somewhere. The most important bloodtrail leads right to the foot of the cross |
RE: Are you content?
I guess I am pretty satisfied with my current setup, although I do want to try a fall away rest like the Muzzy ZE. Ive heard some good things about them, so maybe after the season is over Ill try one out.
I also want to try out the Magnus two blade 100 grain broadhead. If anyone has used these I would like your comments on them. |

RE: Are you content?
I'm thrilled with my setup. I did get a Whisker biscuit for Christmas, and if it works as well as I hear, I don't plan to change anything the entire off season, which would be a miracle for me.
I do imagine I'll get a new string about mid summer, and add any new products Limbsaver dreams up, but that's it. "In heaven, even the fish have antlers" |

My setup is fine. No problems, it ain't the fastest, but it kills deer.
