Been a little bummed since the limb went but I bought a back up bow it's coming along nicely. Confidence back.  One shot at 23yds tonight.  Followed that with a bunch more in the black  and it al

I still dont think my flight is good. I need to do a walk back but that crappy Hurricane bag wont stop an arrow anymore 

Throw a bareshaft down range starting at 20 and moving to 30.  You will know quickly if something is off.

Just posting to show a member how fletched arrows with field points can look great but bareshafts tell the tale that spine is off.  Results in a lousy tune with less energy and BH will not hit with FP.  Plus it will be very unforgiving on bad releases.   This was only at 15yds.  At 20yds the bareshaft will miss the hog completely.  I am shooting these stiff spinned arrows while waiting for replacement limbs.  Only 10lbs difference in the limbs.  All three arrows are the same spine and head weight

My 2nd & 3rd arrow groups have been terrible past few days I've suspected some torque so I adjusted my grip 1st arrow 10, 2nd at 15, final arrow at 20:IMG_0059.PNG

Oh yeah, it was also a cooler morning than the past two November 2nd's I've hunted.

My field tips and broadheads have been all over as of late. Took my bow in to Niagara Outdoors today Jeff tuned her all up for me. Paper tested it a couple more adjustments and I was on my way. Broadheads an field tips exactly the same. Just FYI I'm not an expert archer so when hoisting that bow up to your stand make sure your careful what ya bang into. Not sure what I did but Jeff said my rest was all out of wack. Need to be more careful from now on
