Re: Scope holding zero or me

Well I certainly hope it all works out for you. If money is of any issue for you like it is for me and you dont mind having only three aim points ( 10, 20, & 30 yds ) or depending on how you set it up with the speed ring. Then I really believe that the Hawke Sport HD IR 2-7x32 is the "best ...

Re: Matrix at Cabelas

Im glad you liked it. I have not had my hands on one yet. Im next in line and right behind you if they come out with maybe something even less than 320 fps. I would be happy with 250 to 300 fps.

Rumor

I heard that Excal might come out with shorter more compact bows similar to the Matrix but in lower poundage like Vixen and Phoenix.
If true then do you think within the next year (soon :D ) or WAY down the road several years from now ?

That will be another test to see if the scope adjusts like it should. Im pretty picky about my strings. I look forward to getting yours and trying them out.

Dont think I will ever....

shoot another arrow other than the Spynal Tapps from Jerry at SouthShore Archery. Those buggers are dead on the money. I love the way they shoot and he is a great guy to work with. Combined with my new Hawke Sport HD IR 2-7x32 scope things are really looking great. If you would like to have a scope ...

Re: Crossbow speed question

Well if you havent done so already then on the left of the screen there is the word "Support" with a drop down menu and you can click on Arrow Performance and it appears that your information is pretty close. So I wonder if you have access to a chronograph at an archery shop ? If it really...

Re: S5 question

You want two string widths or more between the string and the bumper. Also what will extend the life of the bumpers is if you grind half to one third of the ball of which will make the bumper in effect softer and make it harder for the string to pinch the rubber against the ball. I have heard about...

Re: S5 question

Yes thanks. Ive read where rotation extends the life. For example only if you was not to rotate and continue to shoot in the same position then where do you think it might fail first ?
Center ?
Edges ?
All the way across ?

S5 question

I just bought a set and have not tried them yet.
When you are shooting with the S5 system and your bumpers start to finally wear and give way. My question is where do they typically start to split at first ?
Middle/center ?
Outer edge ?
