Re: Janesy's life tip of the day.

Had my old time friend tell me how crazy her old boyfriend was. Said he would put and old coat on backwards and had a sawed off shotgun and he would put it inside the gas stove and shoot up the chimney. Said he would come out black. She looked at me strange when I said I would like to see how clean...

Re: Where did "smoked" come from?

groovy info, kegbelly. the older i get the more i dislike pop culture and the need to say or own the latest and greatest which somehow makes a person better than others. "reality" tv and hollywood make the need to connect with nature thru hunting and fishing that much more necessary and sa...

Re: Cabelas Equalizer

I looked at the 350 on flaherty's site and going by the picture, it has a micro stock (my 350 has a matrix stock) and it has an ADF but no REDS. ADF had to be added (but i believe REDS were included; i bought a used one) to the original 350le/se and they often exceeded expected speeds. will this new...

[/quote] The endless loop and Flemish Twist are just different styles of strings and each can be made with whichever material the string maker chooses. Most here, including me, prefer the Flemish twist simply because there is less felt vibration and perceived noise at the shot. Paul [/quote] With ne...

Re: Cabelas Equalizer

went to cabela's website to check it out and $540 for a "370" seems like a pretty nice deal. a standard lite package minus the REDS is included. i think that rivals the 350le deals of a coupla years ago.

Re: My old friend down the road

joe, the owner of the 40 next to mine is 93. i call him sir so he doesn't kick my butt. checking to see if he made it back to camp at night is usually the highlight of my season. doesn't talk much about exploits but i have pieced together over the years that he was a ww2 frogman/infiltrator who was ...

Re: Micro 335 Limb Failure

If the bow your having issues with is a Gen II and they send you a Gen II replacement riser and new set of limbs you will be good to go and have similar performance to that you are used to.
