Where you heading for elk?

 

What kind of stabilizers is everyone on here using? I want to tighten up groups a bit but I don’t know if I want to add much more weight to my bow. I’m going to try out a 11” front 7” back CBE torx setup and see what it does to groups.

Im happy enough with how I shoot cold but I start to shake after holding full draw or taking 30-40 shots so I really have to slow down between shots.

2” dots here 40yds. Bittersweet destroying an arrow, but no adjustment in sight between shots so maybe a 5” group? I don’t know what I should aim for accuracy wise before taking it to the woods.

 

Shrewd 12 inch front and 9 inch rear.

This is a 30yd group in the backyard. I try to have my arrows touching out to 40yds and then the groups open up after that. I practice out to 60 and 70 yards often that will really tighten up your groups better than a stabilizer will. you can really see what you're doing wrong at that distance.

 

Got 2 of my 3 food plots planted today, the 3rd one needs a few more days to dry out.

 

That is beautiful right there! Congratulations on a job well done.

 

Is that where @1buzzbait is gonna hunt?

 

Trying food plots next year. Got a prolific amount of pigs on my land.. old timers say plant enough for deer and pigs and you’re good. Stoked to see if it works

I just recently got back into archery, haven't shot a bow since childhood. Got a cabelas brand compound bow. The dash, I believe is what its called. Have been really enjoying re-learning how it all works. I'm only at about 10-15 yards in my backyard. But its fun

 

Yep!

 

Was gonna wait a few days to plant my last food plot but I didn’t like the forecast so I planted this morning and got done just before it started raining.

 

A couple of you may remember me for being very active in this group several years ago. I have kind of disappeared over the last couple years because I couldn’t shoot any more. About seven years ago I got a shoulder replacement and now have an artificial right shoulder. I couldn’t pull my right handed bowl back anymore after the surgery but was able to convert to a 48 pound left-handed bow because I don’t have a dominant eye.
(It was actually quite easy)
but now after not shooting for a couple years I no longer could pull back the left-handed bow because it put too much side torque on my shoulder. So just for the shits and giggles I picked up my old Matthews right handed bow and was shocked to find out I was able to snap it back with ease and it’s at 62 pounds.
this is a personal huge achievement for me I just felt like sharing it with you all.

 

congrats to you sir...

 

Congratulations!!
