Archery Talk

really tho, i hope yawl get yer shit straightened out in a timely fashion...

 

Well, Dennis, at least my R15 strap lasted longer than your R10 did!!!! Same exact situation.....do you have an estimate on how much it will cost to fix it??? What exact damage was done???

Pops

 

My Mathews DXT, made in 2008 works as it did brand new, but torn rotator cuff and biceps on same arm have me using the crossbow. May try to get the Mathews cranked down to 50 lbs. next spring/summer and see if I can shoot it at that weight.

 

my 10 point is a crossbow, saw them at the Harrisburg Show in Pa. paid $900.00 22 yrs ago, got my doctor to give me a note and gotta permit to use it. permit not needed now in murrilin.but, it has been a devastating harvest machine, as is all the new ones that are out there.

 

No I don’t, my R10 shouldn’t cost anything, it’s brand new.

 

OK - talked to my local archery shop yesterday - opens at noon today - will be taking the bow over this afternoon. Still pissed at Ravin for lack of communication. Anyway, I did cool down after the communications with my buddy and this morning I was able to unspool the strap to see the damage to it....stitching deteriorated or attachment to itself (not sure how) failed.

Pics of end of strap attached for your enjoyment. The strap would have wrapped around the horizontal black pin in the trigger lock piece (I think it is called that??)

 

Saw this guy while I was driving between jobs.

 

Wow!!

 

Watched a nice 8 point yesterday morning and afternoon but talked myself out of taking him. Plopped down in my stand convinced I was gonna take the shot if I saw him today.. 8:20am and a fucking yote walks right out where he’s been moving. ​

 

Hate yotes, they are bad for turkey and fawn

 

Yea same. He’s dead in a bush about 80 yards from me. Ain’t gonna be chasing deer on my land anymore lol

 

only thing that eats them is golden eagles, raven dont even like them

 

Buddy that works at a taxidermy place is gonna tan him. Now I’m just sitting telling myself the 308 that I just sent down range didn’t scare off every animal in a square mile

 

Sometimes not

 

There’s the smelly ol bastard

 

they do stink

 

When I took him to my buddy’s work they made him put it in the outdoor cooler

 

My cousin got it done about 150 yds from me. Saw it take off, run 50ish yards and then keel over.
