Big Country

Georgiaboy34, good decision. I don`t know what would need changed on the limb pockets to accept the heavier limbs? I have changed limbs by 10 pounds many times, but maybe a 20 lb. change involves something I am not familiar with.<img src=icon_smile_question.gif border=0 align=middle>Anyway, let me know how it works out for you. Good Luck!

I just want to say, those calculators seem not to factor in the speed for anything. Say I was a 50# kid, but I was moving at 300Fps, I figure even if I weigh very little I could still nock the heck out of some big person moving slowly. I have been thinking about getting a High country, as I am on the market for a new hunting rig. Hey georgia, you are shooting a thin walled aluminum, very flimsy. My suggestion would be to invest in some carbons, heavy or light they will have more KE then that 2213 could ever store. But good luck anyways, you may see me hunting with a carbon force in the next few months.
good shooting.

Dylan, I have a carbon force extreme pro....and I love it! One thing with them though, due to overall mass weight, they do buck when fired. I have no problem with accuracy, it just feels funny compared to my much heavier 3-d rigs. Now that our season is over here in PA, I am tempted to set mine up for 3-d, just to see how a short A to A bow stacks up. By the way, in hunting trim, my carbon force @ 67lb. draw wgt. 28.75 draw length, shoots a 370gr. bemanICS @ 285FPS. Translates to 66.749 ke. Only fired at one animal with it, a 275lb. Illinois whitetail, passed through like a hot knife through butter. If you get one, let us know how you like it.

are you useing a x-sorber stab? if not try the 6&quot; also check where the aim string is hitting the cam that bow should not have the hand shock. shot that bow last year
you will like it for 3d

Hey 55# recurve i've been thinking for a while about getting the carbons just don't know which to get.after i get the new set up back from HCA i'll probably have to get new arrows anyway wont I? i think the 2213's will be to light for my new set-up? so maybe i will try some then.

c4extrem

that's going to be a good bow.
try cx200 game tracker, these work good for me

Thanks for the info BC, I think I will shoot the dual cams to cut down on the kick. I think any bow I get I will shoot the dual cam version, except for maybe Darton. I like the light mass weight of the carbon force, especially when I am treking through the mountains, it takes alot out of your shoulder with a heavy bow. I have heard good things about highcountry as I said before. Also about darton. As for arrow's georgia, www.thegametracker.com www.goldtip.com www.carbon-tech.com. I think those should give you a little bit of info on carbon arrows. Myself I think I will shoot the Mckinneys, by Carbontec for olympic, and shoot maybe the cheetah's out of my compoud, I also shoot the Terminator hunters right now. If you get Carbon Express georgia, get them with buff tuff coating. Anyways, good shooting.

c4extreme, thank`s for the stabilizer advice. I am using an 8&quot; kybershock, but have tested 5 or 6 others on it. It is not a shock, it just recoils more than my heavy 3-d setups.

55#recurve

I would guess you are using a single cam BC?

Dylan, yes I am using a single cam system on my carbon force. I still get bows for next to nothing, even though I don`t shoot the big 3-d`s anymore. This is what they ask me to shoot, so I do. I do miss my old HCA hachett`s, though.
