RE: What do you use as a backstop ,practicing

No disrespect intended but if you sometimes miss a 2x2 bag you should probably move up a little and get more proficient at closer distances. Be patient and don't be in too big of a hurry to shoot at...

RE: Help with indoor shooting

The fat shafts you see probably are recommended sizes for their setups. Most any competetive indoor shooter uses them. I shoot 2413's indoors and they do help. I'd go bigger but they just look...

RE: Drop Away rest question

They also help eliminate torgue problems with your bow hand. The arrows not in contact with the rest after the shot, so your bow hand is pretty much taken out of the picture.

RE: carbon arrows

Neither speed alone or weight alone = passthroughs. Speed + weight = kinetic energy which + shot placement = passthroughs. Usually the weight given up going to carbons is more than made up for with...

RE: What would you do?

Gotta agree with Dave. Since a human is shooting the bow it should be tuned to the human shooting it. All paper tears aside a machine will throw arrows out of a grossly out of tune bow into the same...

I can't find anything current on them. I still have last years Cabelas archery catalog and they carried them last year. Maybe a call to them would help find one.

RE: Mathews LXI maxed out at 65lbs??? Why

Check your brace height. That's most likely the culprit. When your cables stretch, you'll lose pounds.

RE: Which vanes?

With the drop away rest you can put as much helical as you want. I like AAE 4" vanes. Tough, flexible, and quiet.

Yep. Measure off the base of the tree. One of my favorite local 3D courses has a medium deer target 10 yards away but about 30 yards down a steep incline. More arrows are shot over that deers back...

RE: what do you shoot your broadheads into?

The Block won't hurt your broadheads, but your broadheads will hurt you block. It's a great target for fieldpoints, but broadheads destroy it fast. I use the Mcenzie for broadhead practice also, and...

Toughest critter I ever hunted. Maybe the most fun too. Hunted em on the ground. Took 2 perfect double lung hits and still walking. Quartering away did the trick though.

RE: Tree stand theft???

It's a shame we have to worry about such things. I leave my climber chained to the base of the tree through bow season. Where I hunt, not too many guys walk around with bolt cutters.
