Re: Phoenix Brace Height

The bow has not been strung since Christmas. We strung it about a week ago. the string is at the mark furthest from the riser. I would like to get it midway between the lines.

Re: Wyvern Creations Mount

I have a Grounder Pounder Mount. I did not like loading the arrow between the mounting posts. The Wyern Mount you can load from the side.

Wyvern Creations Mount

I ordered the Wyvern Mount. The instrctions say to mount the adapter on the dovetail. My 2005 Exocet does not have a dove tail. I do have 2 drilled and tapped holes in the riser, but the adapter does not fit the holes. Is there any other options to attach this mount?

What is the advantage of the shorter vanes? Should i put a helical or streight fletch. I have a Bitzenberger and a Arizina Ez Fletch they are b...

In my T/C Encore the best combination I have found is 245gr Power Belt Aerotip with 2 Triple 7 pellets. I have had 2 deer travel about 50 yards the rest have fallen on the spot. The Power Belts load so easy even after the barrel has been fouled.

Slick Tricks

I am going to bite the bullet ans purchase some Slick Tricks for the upcoming season. What does everyone use the Standard or the Magnum. Will the 1/8 inch difference matter that much. I like the bigger diameter. I am shooting 100gr Thunderheads and they fly OK, but I want something that shoots a lit...
