Re: Refletching
Finally got time to fix a couple arrows. Not perfect, a little excess glue, but not too bad for first time. I think next time I’ll try using a toothpick to get a lighter coat of glue. Now I just need a little free time to go shooting,will probably have to wait until next weekend though. Thanks again...

Refletching
I was looking for some advice refletching some arrows. Wanted to put some new wraps, fletching and a few need new nocks. Cleaning the old ones up seems pretty straight forward, a little acetone, a little scraping (I found a small chunk of wood works pretty well) and some wiping. I could use some adv...

Re: Ghost Blind Review
I've been looking at these blinds myself. Think I might pick one up for next year. A bunch of deer come out in the one field where I hunt just about every evening. Was able to get two doe with the rifle, hard to creep up close enough with the bow. Dan, do you have the 4 panel predator or the 6 panel...

Slingblade
Anyone ever use NAP slingblades? I have a pack of them but have never shot them yet. I was going to shoot a couple different broadheads this afternoon and decide what will be on my arrows this year. I have some qad exodus, rage hypodermic and the slingblades. Just wondering if any one had any experi...

Re: Rough knife problem
I've had success in the past cleaning up rusty parts with C.L.R.
It will take the riser old but leave the steel a blackened color.
Some fine sand paper and wd40 or pb blaster should also do the trick.

Re: Tiller problem
You would be correct, that the bumpers are off about an 1/8". They always have been. Everything's seated correctly, that's just the way they are and have always been. Since they don't affect the shot, I don't worry about it. The good news is, I found a loose screw by the trigger (insert a coupl...

Re: Tiller problem
I was sighting in a new Hawke sb 30 pro, first time it's been out of the house. I was using field points at 20 yds. Haven't swapped the string stops. Just measured from string to limbs (beside the limb stops) and tips to rail when cocked. Both were off about 1/8". The string is a little out of ...

Re: Tiller problem
Thanks for the input. Tiller is off about 1/8" and off the same way after switching limbs. I still have to check the trigger box screws and then I'll try a different set of arrows. Probably won't get time to shoot it again until this coming weekend. But after checking it out some more, I believ...

Re: Tiller problem
Yeah, everything appears to be seated and tightened right. I triple checked all of it. I could be wrong about the riser being out of square (if it is, it's very minute). Should the string be perfectly square to the riser? I would think that a limb problem would show by it being out of square the oth...

Re: Tiller problem
Swapped the limbs, all of the measurements are the same. The squareness of the string to barrel is off the same too. It seems that somehow the riser is not square to the barrel.

Re: Tiller problem
The 3/16" difference is when outing a square on the barrel. The left side is touching the string and the right is 3/16 off the string. When cocked and hooking a tape on the limb tips and measuring into the barrel, on side is 12 3/8 the other 12 17/32. I'll try swapping the limbs and see what ha...

Tiller problem
I finally had a chance this weekend to sight in my new scope. After the first shot everything started shooting way right. When checking out the tiller it measured off a bit. I put a square on the barrel and the string is off about 3/16 in 16". All screws are tight, I've disassembled and reassem...
