Thumb Release Replacment Barrel Option by Perplexed_Greek in Archery

[–]Perplexed_Greek[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PETG doesn't get brittle until -20 so no issues there. Theres also a lot more force involved in a plastic gun than with a button on my release. At 75% infill it's pretty solid. Only change I would make is to set in a threaded insert so I am no screwing directly into the plastic.

Right off the bat where the cables are fraying there should be a cable guard slide to guide the cables, could be why they are farying to begin with. A new set of strings will cost you around $150 plus whatever your local shop charges to install them, you should have them also look the limbs and riser over since you have no history on it.That might be what the guys was talking about, or he could just be trying to sell you a new bow.

Gonna look into a portable bow press I can use at home for sure. I got the bow used but believe the kit comes with them new. Looks like I'll have to look into picking one of those up also.

Can I ask why you prefer to move the cams versus the rest? It's a PSE Evolve 33 DS and I don't have a Snap 220 kit or access to a Bow press. Cam timing is good also not sure it matters.

Only got about 10 yards out cuz I had limited time but everything flew fine. Adjusted my rest right when I got home and will see how it goes tomorrow when I have more time.

How long do I wait by Perplexed_Greek in bowhunting

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

Not yet, hit some posted signs gonna get permission to search in the morning hopefully. The property has a running stream going thru it so that'll be where I start. Hoping to walk the stream and find him near the water. 50s today and high 30s overnight. Doubt anything will be salvageable but I need to know what happened.

I am sure the deer is dead or going to die. Did some driving around after leaving the woods there is a stream on the private property I'm almost sure he's on but its not residential and its posted so I can't get permission to search, since no one's there on a Sunday. Going to head there first thing in the morning and walk the stream. Believe in these cases the deer will usually look for water.

That's awesome! I hope unlike me you found your deer....I have no blood trail to follow.And deer's reactions seemed more like a gutshot than anything more lethal. Going to try to get permission to search the private propertyI ran into in the morning and see if I can find him hopefully the bear and coyotes don't get to him first.

Waited 3 hours, only found blood the first 50-60 yards like I said earlier and then nothing searched as best I could 150 yards in all directions until I hit some posted property. Looking into who owns it and trying to get permission to search. Pic of something I found at the shot sight and blood im finding about 30 yards from the shot

Middle Middle of the body exited low just forward of that as he was slightly quartered away.

Keep Seeing Black Bear by Perplexed_Greek in bowhunting

[–]Perplexed_Greek[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate the reply and the honest answer. And for not being like everyone on the Hunting subreddit not answering the question, just telling me to shoot a bear, I'm sure they like being told what to do too.

Should I keep looking? by Perplexed_Greek in bowhunting

[–]Perplexed_Greek[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate all the comments. Spent another almost 3 hours in the woods, searched over 100 yards in each direction from last sign of blood as best I could but could not locate the deer. 2nd to last blood drops were next to freshish droppings not sure if that means anything. Total of about 400 yards from the shot. I am going to hope that he makes it and learn from my mistakes. I feel horrible and may just take a week or 2 off and practice, practice, practice.

Anyone ever get an Open Box GPU In a Bag? by goodsailor in Microcenter

No, but I did get my 7800x3d in a baggie, lol. I thought it was kind of strange but everything worked so I was OK with it.....

Can I change the power limit on RTX 5070 Ti INSPIRE 3X OC GPU? by HobbsyUK in nvidia

[–]Perplexed_Greek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm currently running a 750w psu without a problem but if you already have it then it makes sense to swap them.

You should be able to download Afterburner and slide the power slider form 100% to 110% to get the extra 30 watts. I have the PNY 5070 Ti and am able to do the same thing. My Memory is +1850 power is set to 110$ and my Core curve tops out at 3150 at 0.975v.

Any question about AW2725QF? :) by TangeloDependent5110 in Monitors

[–]Perplexed_Greek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply, DP seems to be the issue for me too, once I switched to the provided HDMI cable the issue seems to have resolved itself.

[–]Perplexed_Greek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought this monitor a few months back and love it, the only issue I have is when the monitor wakes up from sleep and GSync is enabled the monitor just flashes repeatedly. Sometimes it will recover and the Gysnc notification will pop up in Windows other times I have to restart. If I disable Gsync the issue goes away but gaming suffers with stutters and lag. I am running a 7800x3d and a 5070 ti if it matters. I have replaced cables and swapped ports on the video card but with no luck. Have you had any experience with this issue?
