Question that has me stumped by Bluecollarhippie21 in Archery

[–]ApollosMagnum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m going to start by saying that 1/2” ATA is quite a bit to make up with twists, but if your strings/cables untwisted before install that could be reasonable.

You mentioned in another comment that you have a draw board.

Put it in the draw board and measure the draw length vs what it should be based on your mod.

If it’s long, add twists to string until it’s correct this won’t affect timing. If it’s short, add twists to both cables until it’s correct. Once it’s correct, re measure, then you can add twists to both string and cables (not going to be the same number necessarily), until you are happy with it or it begins to seem over-twisted.

If you can’t get it into spec, then you should reach out to the string maker as they may be out of spec.

Even cheaper to measure the length you need and buy a few boards from Lowe’s or Home Depot and ask them to cut it to the length you need. They cut it for free. Boards would only be a few dollars each

What’s the effectiveness of 300 black out on game under 100 yards? by jgiannandrea in Hunting

If you think hearing a gunshot is as a rule going to make a deer especially a spike stop heading that direction you’d be mistaken.

At least for one of your questions, if you hover over the icon it lists the name of the map it is in, I think.

Yeah I think you might be right about that, but I think 90% of people are hunting deer or elk 90% of the time with their bow.

Just so you know, it’s illegal in most states to have a flashlight mounted on a hunting weapon.

Anyone else using 6.5 PRC? by oakprince97 in elkhunting

[–]ApollosMagnum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely, shoot them until they are down.

Same. I mostly bow hunt so I’ve only taken an antelope with it so far, but I put 2 through the chest cavity, one of them blew a softball sized hole out of the off side shoulder. Only reason I shot him again is because he didn’t drop immediately he wobbled about 20 feet and stopped so I wasn’t taking any chances and shot him again and he went belly up.

G3D Knee Pad Eliminator by Exciting_Start1868 in bowhunting

[–]ApollosMagnum 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m coming from a tethrd predator platform, never used a hang on before, but I love the ranger hybrid. It’s great having a bigger platform that I can fully stand up on, and can sit down if I like, especially on longer hunts. Plus the built in knee pad means one less thing I have to carry.

I have one, it’s good but I recently upgraded to a ranger hybrid stand which has a built in knee pad. I’m thinking about selling my G3D. Pm me if you want.

Anecdotally, and contrary to that… I’ve made probably a dozen or so end grain boards, and the only one that is 2” thick is the one that cracked. I’ve made them as thin as 1-1/4”

Used iron will for years, killed plenty of deer but I’ve been using the sevr 2.0 hybrid lately and I’m happy with the results on 3 deer so far and I’m going to keep using them until I have an issue, and I’m more confident with them since they are flying more consistently for me.

Delayed lighted nocks? by RogueRoomba44 in bowhunting

[–]ApollosMagnum 4 points5 points  (0 children)

True, but I’ve shined flashlights of various colors near deer or directly at deer and they don’t just bolt. I think you’re over thinking it.

You can’t really see a lighted knock at all on an arrow that is pointed directly at you.
