I just wonder if anyone on this forum is into Geocaching? Geocaching is a high-tech treasure hunting game played throughout the world by adventure seekers equipped with GPS devices. The basic idea is to locate hidden containers, called geocaches, outdoors and then share your experiences online. Geoc...

You'll not believe how much more quiet until you hear it. So will you hear it? So Boo, in my case, whiskers or no whiskers? I guess the speed loss might make my archery club more happy as the penetration of the tarkets will get lower. By some reason archers in Sweden seems to be scared of crossbows.

Whiskers or no whiskers, that is the quesstion

As I always state, I'm still a newbie. Not much real shooting experience and wear experience. Anyway. I'm going to buy a Boo string, that is a fact (if Don wanna make it for me :D). The question I ask is Whiskers or no whiskers, as I'm just target shooting my phoenix (hunting not allowed in Sweden)....

No hard feelings. I must say I have thought the same thoughts. Got Mattias V-bar. Looked at it and thought: "Ahh that is how it's built. I wonder how it can be optimised". That's just how I am, I like to optimise things :). But I guess Mattias done some optimising himself. The good thing i...

I hope the storm dies before it reaches land. In other case, good luck.

Don't go out kite surfing as this guy did.

Hahahha, that was Hilarius. What a patient man. Would kiilling it be considered self-defence? Yes, I would think so. I has happened to me once. My dog often walked around dreaming not noticing the surroundings. Once she walked strait into a bunch of geese by a local pond, which attacked her. She got...

Fat chance that a 400+ and a 200+ poster will leave this forum due to some quarrel about physics based on a misunderstanding :P

Step 1 - Ok, the only tap and die set I have found with a 8-32 die is about 150$. :shock: And it is still a "low budget" set. I don't really feel I wanna get one of those, especially as I already have 90% of the taps and dies in my metric set... Why can't the world unite. :cry: Step 2 - Fi...

Dimension of screw thread in sleeves & inserts?

The screw thread in inserts and sleeves (where you screwin your point), does anyone know the dimension of this? It's the same as in the nocks. I guess it is some inch-dimension and I'll have to start a small hunt to get a die to make one. I'm building a arrow puller that pulls from the tip and not f...
