another angle.. if its needed.

It looks like im leaning backwards slighty, its because of the camera facing up. It was on a bench on my range.

Looks pretty damn good to me Josh. Some people will probably say the draw looks a little too long, however your bow arm looks good and you're all nice and straight and inline, and that's the key.

My only suggestion would be to get yourself a wrist sling and relax those fingers a bit more.

Oh...one more suggestion....

sell me your bow..for $200



I've always wanted a Pro-Tec with spirals...seriously considering ordering one.

and congrats on that 60 yard group. excellent. I can never find the patience to put in that kind of time with a back tension release...suppose I need to someday to cure my TP.

Um Jeff? Check out the AT classifieds ;) I actually traded my Liberty for the protec. My shooting has gotton better because of it. I think because of my monkey arms, those short ATA bows just arent compatible with me. Not to say it shot bad, but I had a noticeable improvement when I switched.

K... I'll go take a look over there ;)

As for the bows...well you went from a high reflexed 33" bow w/ a 7.5 " brace to a deflexed 37" bow with an 8" brace...quite a bit of built in added forgiveness in the protec. Much less torquey than a Liberty is...How does it balance with just that S-coil on it? (though likely I'd get 2005/2006). May have to go with either the Timberwolf or a c.5 Ultra/v-tec as I'd hafta order a Pro-Tec and need something fairly soon...Hoyt is not exactly know for it's er....quick delivery of product :eek:

I can't stand those spirals on a Turbo/SuperTec..but on the U-tec and Pro-tec they pair up nicely!

Try the XT-3000 limbs once... it'll blow your mind :D

I just saw a 04 protec wiht spirals on AT get sold for $400 shipped.. Wish I would have seen it before it was already snatched up.

It balances decently without a stabilizer and the 2 peice Hoyt quiver on it. I noticed little change balance wise after adding the s-coil. But I basically got the s-coil free afterI ordereda cobra diamondback for $39. After hunting season I'm going to go shop for a good 3d sight and stabilizer. Looking towords a sureloc supreme or something of that nature... It does tend to aim a little high, but a 1/8 tightening of the bottom limb fixed that. But I dont check tiller when I tune.. I just bottom them out, and adjust until hold on the bull easy.

Been there, done that as the saying goesA bit long for a dual purpose hunting bow for me personally these days (since I hunt on the ground quite a bit), but yes...*extremely* good shooting bows.

yeah, I'm sure I could find one cheap over there or elsewhere used, but I always buy from my Dealer. He's a good freind and a good dealer. The service & cameraderie I get I cannot put a price on.

Thenew riser should help with that, but I also find the C.5s tune and hold best with the bottom of the arrow shaft even with the center of the berger button hole (as opposed to the normal arrow shaft centered through the berger button hole). Makes quite a difference,

Looks much better. How does it feel? If you are using a back tension release I would get a wrist sling for sure.

Compare these pictures with your old ones and look at the difference.

RE: New Form Critique Please
 

I would agree. Your form does look better than the previous pics. Almost textbook in my opinion.

RE: New Form Critique Please
 

If you're going to be shooting targets only, you can get away with that form.

If you're going to be hunting, your DL is too long, you'retoo "nice and straight and inline", and your bow is not stabilized properly.

Im no expert, but HOLY SMOKES, if youre the same guy that was leanin way back, big difference. I only see one lil thing. Your right elbow looks a touch high, could be the angle of the pic but if not try to mentally drop your elbow, should help relax your form, and lessen any shaking oror unwanted jitters caused by tension.
