Ravin pays royalties to TP for the design’s patents. Just like TP pays royalties to Scorpyd for their patents of RD bows. Very true but that is not COPYING a bow. If anything Tenpoint is copying Ravin. The cam and cablke system the width is all designed and owned by Tenpoint, the rest of the bow is...

Well it sure looks like their technology is working,, this is 70 yards with their new Stealth that Ravin is coppying and injuring owners with! https://s19.postimg.cc/jxfy1o6xf/448-grain-_ZS-at-70-yards.jpg 3x scope at 70 aiming center of heart looks like both arrows would have been ruined if I had a...

Thanks fer lett'n me know Eric, I was close with the new limbs and same chronograph sounds like that setup is shooting what the advertised speed is for a 380, a little hotter as matter of fact. That 408 @ 361 fps, and 353 @ 384 fps,,, Who woulda thunk it,,,, ,,,

Out of the dozens of Exo's, Micro's, and Matrix bows I have owned the 380 Mad Max has always been my favorite. Now today there was a question about leaving bows cocked all day or for more than one day hurting them, so I did some thinking, and some checking and did a little test. My Mad Max was one o...

I think you have the chrono set up right, but the point you make is valid, if the 350 is shooting this fast the 380 should be around 350 fps for sure! at that weight 360. I have had a 15 fps difference from a factory string to a flemish string. I just checked my 380 and with the factory string it ca...

After 35 years shooting national benchrest competition I don't need instructions on setting up or using a chronograph. This is exactly why you will see in my comment I stated lighting and setup and yes very critical and yes very few capable of doing it consistently and properly.

Same broadheads as always Slick Trick standards, and Slick Trick Viper tricks, the Viper tricks are becoming my favorite, and weather in the 330 or the 380, no reason to change when you either watching fall or have less than 50 yards to track them, I'll stick with my proven ones, we will be using th...

I have owned three chronographs, none over $200, and only one that gave false readings at a thousand feet per second that were off by more than 20 ft per second. The other two tested with a 3 screen Oller professional Chronograph known for its accuracy we're both within 5 feet per second of each oth...

Thought I would post on this subject since I haven't been here in quite some time, and I do own two of those TenPoint bows, the shadow NXT, and the stealth NXT. Shadow uses the acudraw original on the one I have which cranks super easy holding the bow with two fingers. Their new acudraw Pro fabulous...

Hate to see this, I haven't been here in a while, and this is one of the last things I wanted to see. But sounds like things are looking up and I will send some prayers your way Dan, hope everything is getting better yeah, we got to love these golden years don't we.

: Steve, was there any weather change? Front coming in? Temperature drop? Any environmental changes? Strange response :roll: Actually a very observative response! atmosphere is always involved in the influence of any projectile at extreme range. It may only be 100 yards, but that would be like 1000...

One thing is for sure Dan. That 380 set of limbs are not acceptable. But till you try others, or put your 330 limbs on the 380 riser it could also be a slight difference in the limb mounting (riser machining) as well?? Good Luck with the limbs, that would be the easier fix.

I've tried about every arrow and weight and found one thing, like galamb said, a recurve is a different animal, the instant stress when that trigger is released is what determines how much spine? The other tning OI have proven in the last 4 years with my 380's is they have to have more spine than my...

I always season my limbs, needed or not, O set brace height and for the first vweek I own a new bow it is cocked for the duration. When I decode to shoot each day I uncock it with my rope cocker and check brace height, then I shoot and when done I cock it again till the next time I shoot it again, o...

NO! when you get out 60 and 70 yards your taking a chance on gimping a deer and leaving one you cannot recover to die a slow dreadfull death. One step even whith their head down grazing is all it takes in the over 1/2 a second it takes the arrow to get there for that OH CHIT! what Happened! You want...
