  3. Very nice and your not done! Keep going! Congrats!
  4. Ok this is the Easton arrow tuning guild. http://www.eastonarchery.com/downloads/tuning-guide Walk back tune is just using your 20 yard pin at 20 yards 30, 40,etc. Using only the 20 yard pin with level in bubble perfect when shot and lined up perfect to see if the arrows group in one direction or not. Explained in manual. Simply put some arrows might fly better than others especially if you have more than a few types. Lawdwaz put it perfect in so far as form! I shot today horribly then before I left I concentrated on my form and hit 2 bulls at 20 then a decent group at 70. Practice shooting and your form before you start making any changes. And use proper arrow shaft and use all the same type all the time. I shoot a 65 lbs bow and use a 340 ICS Hunter Pro at 8.8 gpi 29" draw they are fast and hard to pull out of 3D. This is the Arrow chart for spline selection. 400 shaft I have shot do not fly the same as the 340's, I see them bend when shot. Another thing is make sure your fletching is perfect! Any rip tear or odd shape will cause uneven arrow flight. http://beman.com/products/ics-hunter-pro/
  5. Very nice, congrats on a successful hunt!
  6. Make sure your form is good! Simply put form is everything and will cause arrows to fly improperly even if the bow is set up correct. After you get your form perfect with a open hand and no torch on your lead hand, try to see if a paper tune shows any issues. If your form is good and the arrow rest is set up properly your shots should line up perfectly from 10 yards to 70 or as far as you can shoot. If they start to go to the left or right at long distances your arrow rest might be off. As long as your form is good. (Make sure your bubble level is perfect!) Try doing a walk back tune to check arrow rest and then if that is good check the paper tune. Make a note of the exact spot the rest is in now. Up down and left right so you can put it back to that spot if needed. Make sure your arrow spine is correct for your bow, I see some shops sell lighter arrows to improve speed but does not match the bow. EX: 65 lbs bow require a 340 shaft. Good luck hope this helps.
  7. 1) Get your hunting license for the game you wish to persue. 2) Check with local DEC about any regulation that might pertain to the area you would like to hunt. (Local regulations can vary from state so check to be sure you are legal.) 3) Get the fire arm of your choosing to fit the game you are after. Shoot often and become well versed in what ever weapon you choose. 4) Start your journey and enjoy the outdoors. Best bet is to get a partner with more experience to tutor you in the finer points of your game. Give me more info and I can give you more.
  8. What are you looking to hunt? And what part of the state do you have access to?
  9. Very nice, congrats. Looks great!!!
  10. Happy B-Day, enjoy, many many more!
  11. Nice bird, congrats!
  12. No way I would ever do this even on private land, to big of a risk with trespassers and getting shot.
  13. Yes without a question I would still hunt it.
  14. You are welcome to leave if you hate it so much.
