Unbending carbon arrow myth

http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q32/mjs_015/bentcarbonpics004.jpg Carbon arrows are supposed to be either straight or broken. Here's one that is clearly bent.

Re: Making your own arrows

I like the 2216 XX78 superslam aluminum arrow shafts by Easton. I use the 2" blazers. There is also a 2216 flat ended luminok that fits these arrows beautifully if you so desire, and care to use lighted nocks. I also have found the latest version of gorilla super glue to be excellent. This is t...

Re: Ontario Native Woman wins U.S. archery title

Hey Don: So far I haven't heard if she will receive any public recognition from her band. I am sure the local media will do a story, but it's early days yet and so maybe I could put in a good word for her to some of the band members I know to have her recognized. As for myself I am just a friend of ...

Re: 150 GRAIN MECHANICALS ?

Hey J: I found a reference to the rage crossbow mechanical broadhead on page 52 of the June issue of Deer & Deer hunting. There is no reference to wt in that description. So you are probably right that it is a 125 grain head. I could have sworn that I saw 150 grains somwhere in the caption. So I...

Re: Fletching removal tool

I like the Zip strip by Norway industries. It is expensive but so is most archery equipment. But I think it will last me

Hey bstout:

I try to check the level whatever the distance. But are you saying it only matters

Re: Broadhead data

Recently, I bought a Bushnell backtrack device which keeps track of distance. this would probably work well. Regular
GPS devices I assume do the same?
