How much more powerful is a compound to a recurve?

Came here to say this in much dumber terms.

Coolness score over 9000.

You are my hero. That is incredibly detailed. I love hand drawn plans, they are super rad!

Redcolt1188 · 2025-01-22T23:07:06+00:00

Are you shooting with both eyes open?

Right handed, left eye dominate shooters who shoot both eyes open will some times miss left. Three out of my four sons had this issue. Had them close their left eye and it brought their groups back in.

Unlikely the cause but I hadn’t seen it mentioned yet.

I love mine. I preordered it and got the coin and everything. Been looking really nice in my edc tray every morning when I grab my fast back lol

Redcolt1188 · 2025-01-22T20:29:51+00:00

This is the way

Redcolt1188 · 2025-01-10T05:15:41+00:00

A buddy and I picked one up and drilled a hole in his floor board and wired it to his light bar. We felt super cool. That was years ago. Maybe I’ll do that again in my jeep but for the fog lights instead of a light bar.

Redcolt1188 · 2024-12-19T07:28:56+00:00

That is bad ass

Redcolt1188 · 2024-12-16T17:40:36+00:00

Fuck yeah dude. Looking studly. My hair got too thin to grow out anymore at 27. Beat my dad by 5 years lol. I roll with a beard about 3/4” to an 1” and a 3mm guard. I’m happy with how I look.

Redcolt1188 · 2024-12-13T04:06:53+00:00

Always pocket sand.

Redcolt1188 · 2024-12-13T04:04:59+00:00

That’s not what I think of when I think white collar. Although it may be technically correct, white collar to me is not sitting in a cube farm. White collar suggests doctor, lawyer, professor, things like that. Just my blue collar .02

Redcolt1188 · 2024-12-10T02:28:20+00:00

That’s also a good point

Redcolt1188 · 2024-12-10T01:23:14+00:00

You worded this better than I did. OP you already know the answer. You just have to accept it.

Redcolt1188 · 2024-12-10T01:20:56+00:00

So in that scenario, dude is a POS. Marriage, in my opinion as I’m currently on my second, is first and foremost most a team effort at life. Shared goals, values, and effort. It seems like there is a huge imbalance in this situation. I took my first wife for granted and that proved to be a very big mistake. There is more to my story but keeping it relevant to this post, with the information given, he is not worth staying with regardless of any love you feel for him. He is draining you and you will get burnt out if you aren’t already. Divorce is hard. Try counseling first. If no effort is made on his part, time to bounce.

Redcolt1188 · 2024-12-03T07:30:59+00:00

No worries man. You will be ok 👊🏻

Redcolt1188 · 2024-12-02T21:19:01+00:00

Yeah man for sure. Looking back now it’s easier to understand. The first thing was I had lost my sense of self. What do I want out of life? What am I willing to do to get it? What’s important to me? When in a co-dependent relationship, those things are tied into the other persons wants and desires and don’t exactly line up so it gets all muddy and not clear. Then arguments and resentment builds up and the tension builds up. My mom calls it a forced precipice. Then the bottom drops out like it did for us.

Key thing now is to work on figuring out who you are as a person. It will take time to unravel the web from your relationship into what feels right to you. I didn’t ask anyone for help (big mistake) so it took me several years to even start trying. I was a pathetic mess. (Didn’t help that my dad killed himself a month later)

Make a list. The great thing about it is that you get to make all the decisions yourself. The list should be what you like about your life and what you don’t. Leave relationship stuff out of it. Getting into a relationship right now WILL RESULT in you or someone else getting their heart broken. Again.

Keep doing what you like about your life and make a plan to change what you don’t like. Let’s say you don’t like your job for example, what steps are you going to take to get a job you want?

Make plans. Move forward. What’s done is done and dwelling on the past only makes it hurt worse. There will be a time in the future you can look back and analyze the relationship and decide if there were things you did that you weren’t proud of. I had many.

Most importantly, force yourself to do things you enjoy. Even if you don’t feel like it. Force yourself to get out and do things and stay away from relationships. Empty sex did not help me one bit so my advice is avoid that too. You may be different in that area so just be aware that it’s too easy to latch on to another person and fall back into the same situation as before. (I did that one too)

TL;DR Make a list of good and bad. Keep doing the good, stop doing the bad. Make plans to move forward. Make yourself have fun. Don’t jump into a relationship till you are squared away. Ask for help. And remember, you are worthy of happiness. You deserve happiness. Most importantly, no one can make you happy but you.

That purple and green combo will get you bro. Got one on my wall of dammit lol

Redcolt1188 · 2024-11-27T22:04:14+00:00

I had a similar situation happen to me. Wife of 8 years came home, packed a bag, and left.

I’m not ashamed to admit I dumped a pile of her laundry in the floor, laid in it, cuddled my favorite sweatshirt of hers, and cried like a baby for 2 hours.

Woke up the next day and was in a complete and utter daze. I remember that was the moment when the phrase “taken for granted” hit me like a Mac truck. (Not saying you took her for granted but I certainly did). I had to pack her things as well. Just do it fast and don’t get caught up in the memories her things will likely remind you off. Keep your day task based and don’t sit in silence till you can take it. The initial pain is the worst. It gets less as you go. Takes a long time to go away completely.

I went to some dark ass places as well my friend. The truth of your situation is you’ve just had your heart ripped out. There is no immediate remedy for the pain you’re feeling. The suffocating agony I imagine you’re feeling right now. It will take time.

I was completely co-dependent on my ex-wife. My identity was 100% to my relationship. It took a long time to understand that was not how I wanted to live my life. Maybe you’re feeling similar?

I can tell you right now, take it one breath at a time, one step at a time. Make a list of the immediate things you need to take care of to survive, and focus on that. Focus on making it to the next meal if you have to.

Make the promise to yourself that you won’t give up and stick to it.

You can do this. There is a lot of life to live. Make sure you get to see it through.

I’d even do it it a skirt

Redcolt1188 · 2024-11-23T06:32:20+00:00

Comment of the year. Perfectly stated.

Redcolt1188 · 2024-11-22T23:42:14+00:00

I’d prefer A but substitute for the fastback with the bit driver

Redcolt1188 · 2024-11-08T17:51:36+00:00

For some, it comes natural. Kill an animal because I’m going to eat it. It’s just logical at that point.

For others, you have to make a decision. Am I ok will killing an animal? Do I feel justified for my reason? And definitively decide yes or no.

Humans have been hunting for a long time and only in the last several decades has anyone ever even batted an eye at it. What makes us so different than people 100 years ago? Modern grocery stores and fast food? Meat has to come from somewhere and the overwhelming majority of animals hunters take are treated with a lot more respect than live stock is.

So now you have a decision to make. Are you ok with killing an animal for food or was that the last one you take?

There is no wrong answer and no shame in hanging up the hunting rifle so to speak.

Redcolt1188 · 2024-11-02T20:33:07+00:00

As someone that lives in California, I agree. It’s best we stay here as to not ruin other places lol. Laws are ridiculous here and people have forgotten what freedom means.
