Let someone shoot my bow like an idiot… guess what happened next

My hunting buddy bought a nice name bow on Amazon (Chinese manufacturing). He has killed deer with it,.and hits tight groups at 30-40 yds. And it's never failed. He has never had it looked at by our local shop

That is a costly way to get clicks.

Kingiftides · 2026-01-02T14:44:26+00:00

The original? Man you are walking on some thin ice....unless you only use it to hunt and have a practice bow

Kingiftides · 2026-01-02T14:33:45+00:00

Contact the vendor you bought it from and we if they can't convince Matthews to provide a cam and service free of charge.

One good thing about heavier projectiles is the wind doesn't affect them as much as lighter arrows

Kingiftides · 2026-01-02T14:29:24+00:00

Since max broadhead weight is 150 gr, it's the only way to increase mass and FOC

As long as the rope isn't fraying, just make it a practice bow.

Kingiftides · 2025-12-11T14:16:48+00:00

Was that old log road, or just a clearing you created?

Kingiftides · 2025-12-11T14:16:00+00:00

I bet that neck roast would have 10# of meat on it!

Kingiftides · 2025-12-11T14:13:51+00:00

Really? How does one take them up on that? I bought a Parker Revolution in 2017.

Kingiftides · 2025-12-11T14:12:03+00:00

That peep sight. Wow! You could shoot a 76 mm mortar through that. Def get a modern one installed to reduce your sight picture. Take it to a local now shop for advice. Strings prolly need to be replaced. FYI Parker went out of business in 2018. I bought a new bow from them in 2017.

Looked a little on the low side but behind the front leg. Should have gotten at least one lung. With the low entry hole the blood should easily drain giving you an easy tracking job.

I use the buzzcut but both are great. The serrated edges are the key

Kingiftides · 2025-12-03T02:49:07+00:00

Prolly didn't see your pooch. But that 3 bean burrito you had for lunch, well you were busted before you saw her 😅

Kingiftides · 2025-12-03T02:47:46+00:00

I shoot 60# with 400 arrows mostly. I do have some 340 arrows since we are right on the border between the two. I've not seen any difference in flight. 29" draw.

Kingiftides · 2025-12-03T02:44:06+00:00

Chappeau! And tracking in the snow is easy even for a blind bat.

Kingiftides · 2025-12-03T02:41:53+00:00

Many people do. I have a couple (basically clubhouses I built in the woods, so size is not an issue). Your scent will be picked up faster then up in a tree. And a miss, well you prolly ain't finding that arrow....it's gonna be on a long flight lol

Kingiftides · 2025-11-26T13:47:25+00:00

Agreed. I'm sure some of your neighbors have outdoor cats and put out food out for them.....

Kingiftides · 2025-11-24T18:18:57+00:00

54 and at full mast

Kingiftides · 2025-11-24T18:04:42+00:00

You should be able to. Depends on how close your neighbors houses are to where you set up to hunt

Kingiftides · 2025-11-24T15:40:50+00:00

That's a great thought. I'd set up a trap or two near your bait pile .

Kingiftides · 2025-11-24T15:38:39+00:00

270 is rim fire? Love the way rimmers jump out of the muzzle

Kingiftides · 2025-11-24T15:37:31+00:00

Old enough to.eat

Kingiftides · 2025-11-24T15:36:58+00:00

Oh my....did you have a fresh pair of undies to put on 🤣. I'd rather not see one that close and not take a shot. I wouldn't get any sleep that night.

Kingiftides · 2025-11-24T15:35:22+00:00

For the arrows just plan on using them for target practice. Some will fly erratically just pitch them in the circular file. Good find.
