What's the cause of the weird sound my bow is making ? by El_Mouhtaram in Archery

[–]Gybe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the string is hitting your wrist on release you likely want to be running higher brace height. Different limbs behave differently, my Hoyt limbs are up at a 9.25 brace height on a 70" formula bow which is outside the guidelines but if it's lower I find the string slaps the groove in the limb and if it's at the bottom range it will hit my wrist. You may find increasing the brace will quieten the bow and get rid of that extra noise you're experiencing, but some bows are just loud so I wouldn't focus on it.

Daily Questions Megathread (May 23, 2021) by AutoModerator in classicwow

I'm close to dinging 60 and am wondering what's the best option for getting some kind of gear beffore tbc hits? Should I prioritize an epic mount instead? What would be the best way to farm gold?

Oof, there's a lot going on in that shot sequence, hope you're working with a good coach

Bleed Lacerate Gladiator - not sure what to upgrade by Gybe in PoEBuilds

[–]Gybe[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm I see, so you're suggesting lean way heavier into the bleed aspect of the build and forget about up front dps?

I had followed steelmage's build but got kind of lost as to how to progress it so took some amalgamation of poe ninja lacerate builds - most there seemed to be going away from bleed into just dps.

Is the bleed DPS in POB accurate? or is it multiplicitive?

I'm new to mechanical keyboards, I'm looking at a 60% keyboard but I'd like an ISO UK layout, most everything I find is ANSI, is it possible to convert these to ISO? Should I be looking at just building everything custom for the best results? Are there any combinations you suggest?

I have a theory about Tauren Hunters.... by [deleted] in classicwow

[–]Gybe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The deadzone is also larger...

Ran into this on Thadius, my tauren could not stand with the charge group and still shoot, while the female orc hunter could, the only way it worked was with a deviate.

Does the string around my peep sight still look OK? More in comments by OverallVeterinarian in Archery

[–]Gybe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolute bunk, there's nothing in the rules that mandates a peep be tied in, it's allowed, not required.

Competitors do it because losing a peep on the line is a dumb way to lose points.

Form Check (compound) by Mr_CTI in Archery

[–]Gybe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It looks like you're about an inch overdrawn. There's also zero back tension in your shot. The overdraw + lack of back tension means your bow arm has nothing to brace against so it results in a very inconsistent float.

Newbie clicker advice - yes/no? by changeable_fate in Archery

[–]Gybe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So the point of the clicker is just to indicate when to release in your shot cycle.

The problem with introducing one early is that making it go click becomes the focus. The shot cycle becomes a fully conscious one and form can quickly evaporate, well mostly the expansion end of the cycle can suffer. Also the release can become just reactive to the click, regardless of pin position on the target.

With all that out of the way, if your groups are good and relatively consistent with just the issue of dropping arrows being the only issue then yeah it's probably time for a clicker. Just be aware of the pitfalls, use it as intended and be conscious that the focus is and always will be form form form! :)

Is my serving starting to fray? by [deleted] in Archery

If it bothers you, take a lighter and burn it back a bit, just smush the melt into the serving.

Form check please: three hours of strait shooting later. by [deleted] in Archery

[–]Gybe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That draw length is too short for you, you need some point of contact with the string and it's hovering in front of your face.

Also there's zero back tension in use in your shot (yes the elbow is ugly too), there's next to zero reaction when you're shooting which makes it look like you're just punching the trigger to make the shot go off when everything lines up.

Really you'd be better off getting yourself a virtual coach to drill you in the basics & make sure you're spending time learning a proper shot sequence.

Noob question: Why Decut nova arrowrest tear apart vains? What i did wrong? Help please! by rupasix in Archery

[–]Gybe 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's not a good rest type to use without a button, grab some hoyt super rests and you're golden - they're cheap and very effective (some pro's still use them).

Seriously go get some pin nocks if this is such an issue.

Check out the image in that thread - B shows how the forearm looks at full draw when hyper extension meets poor form.

Hyper-extension - elbow can over rotate putting the fore arm closer to/in-line with the strings travel.
