RE: Would you consider it overkill?
 

Nothing on my bows that I would consider overkill...espicially my right handed bow.

RE: Would you consider it overkill?
 

I don't really need five pins with 20 feet of wrapped fiber.

I don't really need the lightest weight peep available on the market.

I don't really need a fall away rest.

I don't really need an STS.

I suppose I could get rid of quite a bit and still kill animals just as effectively.

RE: Would you consider it overkill?
 

heck, id say most of our whole rigs are over kill...the past proves we dont need what we have to hunt....

but based on a "typical" bow hunting rig, id say my viper sights are probably overkill....010 pins and an extention just isnt really needed for a 20yd shot on a deer IMO...but, i love my sights!

RE: Would you consider it overkill?
 

Let's see. I don't use sights. I shoot fingers and use a simple flipper rest, although arthritis flare-ups are making me lean toward hunting with a release now. Sometimes I've got a stabilizer on the bow. My arrows run about 560 grains with 5" feathers and wear cut on contact 2-blade broadheads. Even when I'm using my compound, I'm still shooting traditional. ;)So, nope. No overkill. :)

RE: Would you consider it overkill?
 

The only thing about my setup that is overkill is the guy behind the arrow. I mean seriously, it's just not fair.;)

RE: Would you consider it overkill?
 

I am sure there are things on my Bow that are actually overkill, but none I would part with. $200 sight for one thing. 1st sight I ever played with was a painted toothpick taped on my bow.

Kids will do what they have to;)Killed my 1st rabbit with that Bow too.:D
