My 3 cents... 1. Don't skimp when buying a release. It should literally last you a decade or close to it. Tru-fire, Scott, and Tru-ball are good releases that are affordable. 2. Don't skimp on arrows. A good arrow can be had for ~$60 half dozen. When you find a good arrow that performs the way you want, but several dozen of them. Like Phade said, arrow companies tend to reinvent the wheel every few years so it's tough to find that same arrow that you've grown to love. 3. Don't skimp on broadheads. There are so many different styles out there to choose from it becomes a chore. Pick a few of the style (fixed or mechanical) you prefer and read the reviews on them. Good luck!

6 of one, half a dozen of the other. Releases are extremely simple and may make it easier for him to shoot. If it were a traditional style bow I would say fingers, but since it's a compound so I'd go with the release.

Micro adjust is the way to go. All I've used for the last 5 years. It makes sighting in so much easier! Especially if you have 5 pins like I do. I'm actually gonna have a trophy ridge react 5 pin for sale soon...

I like multiple pins...the more the merrier!

I shot an Elite (for the first time in my life) E32 last month and was really impressed. So impressed I think I shot 20-30 arrows through it. But the Obsession Evolution won me over, so that's what I ended up ordering. They were both nearly identical in draw smoothness and back wall (to me). But the obsession seemed more dead in the hand and a touch quieter. Prices were nearly the same so that wasn't really a factor. But, Elite definitely makes a super nice bow.

Yes he can ship them.
-
Cancel it! Haha, joking of course. Save the info and remember him next time. Better yet, tell your friends.
-
Could be worthy of selling if it turns out good, which I'm sure it will knowing you.

How about a double exposed skull and American flag???

I saw a nice 8 point last week that was still carrying.

He really does nice work

I've been shooting indoor league since January. It's only 20 yards but it's indoors. I also shoot in my barn up to 43 yards during the winter when it's not bone chilling cold out.
-
Here are some examples of what he can do.
-
Yes I use them. We shoot in a league together once a week and he's done mine and several others from the league, including the owners of Copper John sites/Stan releases. I've probably got 1000 or more shots on them and have seen no peep rotation, servings and ends around cams still look great.

I found a bunch of new razorback 5's this fall while cleaning out my gun cabinet. Almost through them out...thinking maybe use them for turkey season.

Diablosport predator sports tuner in excellent used condition. Just connect to your vehicle and the possibilities of tuning are endless! It has 4-5 pre-programmed tunes for ease of use or you can create your own. This was used on a 2004 Silverado with 5.3 L engine. Never had any issues and loved the instant performance boosts. Please see the link to the web page for the complete list of compatible vehicles. http://shop.diablosportpower.com/DiabloSport-Predator-U7193-2003-2005-GM-Car-Truck-SUV-U7193.htm Asking $215 or BO shipped.

What is not breaking the bank and what type of magnification? You mention range shooting, how far? If you're only shooting out to 200 yards you don't "need" a super high magnification. Check out Vortex riflescopes. They're a good quality scope that come with a lifetime warranty. I have 2 and would compare their quality with Leupold but at a cheaper price. Check out opticsplanet.com

Typically if it's a good workout you should feel a little tenderness. But what I've found that helps me most is being well hydrated. I add a couple table spoons of baking soda to a gallon jug of water and try to drink most or all of it before working out (over several hours). The baking soda is basic which should help keep the lactic acid build up down. And just the enormous amount of water should help purge it too. Since I typically work out before lunch, I usually try to make sure I have a banana and pineapple on the days I work out. Bananas have the potassium and pineapple contains amino acids which will help reduce the formation of lactic acid. I also eat a protein bar before working out. Good luck!

I prefer a nice drop point for skinning. My primary gutting/skinning knife is my Buck Alpha Hunter. I also have the pak skinner, but haven't used it yet.

Yeah, season was pretty bad for me...only took 7 deer. Haha.

I'm not sure exactly what is up with his left side. He hasn't posed for me yet. I'll have 4 cameras out there tomorrow, then hopefully we'll get a good look.

First, third, and fourth pics. He's a mainframe 5 on his right and what looks like a triple brow or double main beam on his left.
