As you turn ring up your power gets stronger ..I keep mine at 380 on my tact zone as it is best setting to see a Buck clear at 30 yards and target also..

But i do not use lines only the 20 yd one sighted in at 30 yards never shoot buck over 35 yards,never ...

But that is not your question

experts with a lot tips...I like your idea of using only 20 yd line and keeping shots close.. PRACTICE is must shooting freehand ...I sight my 20 yd line at 30 yards dead ..never use others.. my shots also are 35 yards and under .. I have been sad on what is happening with expanding points..Hunters ...

After awhile like 100 shots your string will settle down and stay away from rubber bumpers..Like said mine seems to shoot great if its 3/16 away from rubbers or 1/4 inch ....

As long as your total weight is over 350 grains you should be OK. I would suggest you use the heavier heads, and get heavier arrow inserts, or other arrows to use down the line. My personal experience is that heavier is better, yes slower, but better penetration and accuracy with higher FOC (Front ...

50 YDS is too far for shot on nice buck like that.lets start there...I will let experts help you on bow/arrow..

Man you got some fatties there! I assume these bears are killed over bait??

No baiting is illegal in pa...Most are shot driving in crews of 25 hunters.1 crew got 25 last year and other 14..Yes some bigones killed as high as 800 pds average on big ones is 500 to 740..

Nice...We all use just a DREMEL tool with cut-off wheel makes nice cut also..

We had real bad weather first 2 days of Bear ...Group saw at least 12 bear and got 2 ..Other gang saw 9 bear and got 2 ...Real bad year on numbers so far ....1 other member saw 9 bear for week and got none..

1 bear was 588 pds ..PGC told us that a few are 800 pds this year and many 700 pd bear....

Has anyone that installed AIR BRAKES had limb failure?So far I am not having problem with air brakes on..

My Micro 335 first set of limbs had it before a 4 inch splinter came.My second set of limbs no marks like you have in your pic..

I wonder if my air brakes help stop it also?I cannot use the new spacer with Air Brakes..I have over 100 shots on mine and guys without Air brakes limbs are breaking...

At camp we have a lot of micro 335 with gen 1 riser..Funny 1 member is on his second limbs right one bro again and he hardly shoots..Like 10 shots on 1st limbs and 10 on second limbs..Both sets bro while he had bow on his back or sitting on ground waiting for deer..tink,tink.tink then snap.....he ha...
