Re: How to see your arrows hunting?
You can still paint your arrows...cresting. lighted nocks are also great. As far as colors, try hot pink. Pink is the color that doesn't show up anywhere in nature. Paul Lighted nocks I am trying for first time in my life also,they are something to see..ok on cresting ,I went to bass school with Ze...

Re: Micro 355 Brace Height?
I myself am not worried about it. I reserve my own strings. If you wanted a better choice may be to burnish the edges, I personally wouldn't take a dremel to it but YMMV. I took a real fine file I had in file set and just rounded edge a little on both sides.Then I filled it with string wax and now ...

They are unnecessary on the bows with REDDS. Newbie, Do you think I should lightly take those edges off the brace line ...
