So here is my concern and not sure what to do.

I switched from a Index to a thumb release a few months ago. recently shot my BH (Expandable) and it was two inches low at 30 yards to FP. Went to Dealership this morning and they made my d loop a little longer. They felt the shorter d loop was causing too much torque. So new loop went on and shot a bullet hole also through paper. Mind you first time ever for me and I give credit to Thumb release as I was punching the trigger with wrist release.

So here is my problem. Went out to range and 20 & 30 BH/FP touching. 40 yards FP/BH in the 12 ring but 1/2" apart. Shot the 50 yard target and both were 4" apart and high right one time and low right the next time. My sight goes out to 60 yards.

Should I just gang adjust the sight or move the drop away rest up slightly or down depending on the next 50 yards shot grouping?

Thanks!

I’m a second year bowhunter and am looking to upgrade over the Craigslist find from last year. I have a nice rocky mountain sight stabilizer and everything else I need. The dilemma is should I buy a midgrade rth bow like the bear archery species that I’ve been looking at or maybe fork over a little extra on a bare bow. Its very hard to find mid grade bows that aren’t rth. Any ideas?

I’m building an Ozone Closet for next season. I’m having some difficulty finding a good sealed portable plastic closet that is actually airtight. Have any of you guys built an Ozone Closet? If so can you reply or pm me a good link for a good portable plastic closet that actually seals and has a plastic floor? thanks!

So i’ve finally decided to invest in some good layering stuff. I hunt public land, walk a mile plus to get to the spots i like. In the warm and cold season i wear shorts and a tshirt for the walk in. I then layer up and get in the tree or blind. I bought some expensive thermals from bass pro a few years back, level 4 something, $ 100 for the top, and $ 100 for the bottoms. Maybe i do it wrong or there are more layers needed, but I still get cold with those underneath their insulated bibs and jacket.

Can someone school me on proper layering, with names of suggested articles of clothing? Thanks!

DON’T TAKE THE EFFER APART UNLESS YOU HAVE NERVS OF STEEL!!!. Yeah, what a pain in the keister.

Firstly, the cutout for the lanyard is not a good design. Too small and too tight a bend. Thinking I would loosen the screws a little bit for better access, I turned them one turn too much and "unpositioned" a spring inside. The result was a stiff trigger that would not adjust. I have rebuilt jet engines for 20 years. I have built fuel controls with little Itty bitty parts from scratch hundreds of times. Well after putting the justx back together, I can assure you it’s no picnic.

Secondly, do not attempt this in front of sensitive ears unless you are comfortable with a six year old cursing like a drunken sailor.

Thirdly, enclose yourself in a very small, very clean and sealed area because you will send each of the 4 springs flying across the room at least 4 times each!

Lastly, what a great release! Performance is smooth as butter and undoubtedly will make me a better shooter.

Consider yourself warned!

Alright guys, I need some help finding a good mid-layer for my system. This is going to hopefully be an outer during early season (with a Stratus vest on top for windy days), and then I’ll layer it up as the season progresses until it finally finds its place as a true mid-layer. I’ve got a cheap Academy fleece that’s actually really warm that I’d use for this but it’s to big for me. Here’s what I’ve got so far:

-FL Wick 150 Baselayer
-Core Heavyweight 1/4 Zip
-Mid-Layer that I’m looking for here
-Straus Vest or Jacket

Things that I’m looking for are full zip, and no hood if I can help it. Other than that, I’m open to options.

I’ve been looking at the two below and I’m thinking I can just pick up any inexpensive fleece to fill this spot but I wanted to see if you guys knew of anything else that might work better.

Let me know what you think and thanks for the help!

Can’t believe this but there is some serious inside looks and glances at gear that has been largely overlooked in the new Petersen’s Bowhunting mag. Usually the mags are several months behind on info but the new 2019 gear addition has some pretty good sneak peaked, including the unreleased (until now) FL sweater.
Highly recommend you pick up a copy.

Just doing some research.
