Bottom bow was a Fred Bear Kodiak used for hunting. I don't remember the draw weights on any but the Kodiak was beefy &...

Re: How hard is it to......

A second point that I forgot to mention. Your arms will stretch. You may become NBA worthy, but a new wardrobe will be needed.You can always just hang out with the rest of us "knuckledraggers". Its pretty easy to spot the Exomax shooters in a crowd. I've only been at this a couple weeks &...

Re: Ibex accurate to 180 Meters !

But even so, I was very happy with the accuracy compared to the verticals. I'm hoping with some more fine tuning I'll get them to stay in the ground next year. Clout Mirror.jpg Clout.jpg Awesome, sounds to me like your on the way to winning your first clout! :D I & my Brother & a coupla bud...

Re: Claws x 2?

I spent about an hour on the phone w/ Danny over this recently. His opinion is the 2" shorter string will be a b*tch to change, over stress the stringing aid. It was an interesting conversation as he was building strings in his mind while talking to me. :mrgreen: He called me back about 20 min...
