What do you guys consider to be the best string making jig out there and why?

Anyone know if the aae maxweld pen and bond glue will be ok if it was possibly frozen or happened to get cold? I’m wanting to order them but didn’t know if it froze in transit thru the mail if it’d be ruined ? Thanks

I am looking to try a thumb release this offseason in preparation for hunting in the fall.

Any of you boys have some pros and cons of 3 finger vs 4 finger

And a swivel head vs non swivel head

Thanks

I have been shooting a STAN Shootoff trigger release for about 2 1/2 years and have realized that in order to really improve scores I should probably change to a hinge release. Any suggestions on a certain one that has a safety on it? I have tried to shoot one before, but I am deathly scared of punching myself in the face. Haha

Wanting to swap cams. I’ve got a rival with pcx cams. 29” draw. Reading the forums should I go with the number 4 PCXL CAM?

I am looking to go elk hunting this fall for the second time in my lifetime. The first was 14 years ago. I am trying to gear up with everything I will need, and trying to not end up in the dog house with the wife on how much I spend 🙂 I have a day pack that we used the first time but it is no means a meat hauler. I’m not planning on camping far from the truck so I don’t need a huge pack to bring in all my gear. The compromise the missus and I have agreed to allows me to purchase basically whatever frame I want that way I have the ability to pack out meat should I be so lucky, yet not drop $ 600-700 on a pack/frame combo.

Any advice on which frame to target? I have done my research and it seems like I can’t go wrong with EXO, Stone Glacier, Mystery Ranch, Kuiu, Kifaru, etc. Didn’t know if there were others to consider as far as buying only the frame?

Maybe I’m nuts only buying the frame??

Thoughts?

Thanks! :thumbs_up

Easton Axis 5mm 300 spine 28.5”. Three 3” AAE vanes, 50 grain brass inserts and 125 grain head. Giving me 513 grains at 13.3% FOC.

Gold Tip Hunter Pro 300 spine 28.5”. Three 3” AAE vanes, standard insert with 70 grins of fact weights and 125 grain heads. Giving me 510 grains at 16.8% FOC.

Fortunately both arrows tune left/right the same. As for vertical I just have to adjust rest for arrow diameter, which I have marked.

The major plus for the Hunter Pro’s is with Fact weights I can shoot varies grain heads by just adjusting the fact weights. And I do not have to add anything to the end of the arrow for broadheads. But unfortunately they are not made in USA.

Now I have 7 months to decide before next archery season.

How does the kifaru 22 mag work as a deer hunting pack to care a treestand in for a hang and hunt?
