Re: removing the adf on a micro

I love your wording (spontainesly dissassemble) it seams like if i never had a 330 without it it wouldnt be such n issue. I definately am at least keeping the stock string. Like you said the micro has a considerabley higher draw weight than my 330 matrix thats a good point

Re: Ground Blind

I love a ground blind on a cattail edge or any place you only have to worry wats in front of you only. They kind a drive me crazy scooting from wall to wall any kind of field edge is also a favorite

Re: Hunting and Shot distance for Xbow vs Compound

I shot a longbow for years with a 25 yard self limit. The micro feels like a bazooka. My new limit in my p.a. woods is now a self limit of 40 yards . I dont practic any further than that to tempt me into a range im not perfect at. Especially in a windy condition.

Re: Project Flying Hatchet...

Ive shot the slightly smaller intercepters for 30 years with my martin longbow out of 75 deer only lost 2 or 3 and it was due to placement. Excelent head. Used to actually put a very sharp edge on em with a simple hand dragging smiths sharpener i usually reinforced the insert with a drop of epoxy

Re: Offspring

I like that bow too. The fact that you cant change the string or adjust fast turns me off. But being i got 2 extra matrix dosnt make it such n issue. I would like to try it. I bet you could cock that thing in an emergency widout d rope. Thats a cool plus.
