  1. Re: Arrow rest I've alined all my fletching so they would clear the arrow rest and still the same results.I'm going with a biscut or the trophy hunter.On the subject of the shakey hunter rest-Does that rest keep the arrow from falling off?I know the biscut keeps it inplace.Thanks for the replies.

  4. Does an arrow rest affect shot placement?My shots are not consistant.I'm shooting a two-prong style arrow rest.A friend at work said that it would.he suggested a whisker biscut or drop away.When I started shooting this bow the arrow rest was new and now the black covers on the prongs are wore a bit.

  9. Re: Local bow shops I feel for you man.We have the best pro shop around.He does'nt try and sell you something you don't want or need.He has his own indoor range with all types of targets and in the off season they hold 3-D shoots.He can order you anything you want if he does'nt have it in stock.He is the man around here.He will give you great advice on anything about bowhunting.He's been doing it for nearly 35 years.Anybody within 50 miles will tell you go see him.

  17. Re: Guys!!! Hey people,women do hunt and they look good doing it.This man that my dad knows called the other day and wanted to know if we could come down to his farm and kill some of the deer.My dad could'nt go because he is taking chemo and radiation for cancer.This is the first year that we have not hunted together for about 16 years.Anyway I went to this man's farm and met him and his family.4 daughters -2 that hunt.They said they had so many they needed help.They showed me some stand sites that they had set up(great locations too).I just love it when a plan comes together.Smart,beautiful,camo ladies.Life is GREAT.I love to see women hunting and fishing,I think it's great.Keep it up ladies.Going hunting Friday morning.I think it'll be a all day hunt at that.Maybe more days to follow.

    Re: weight The bow is a pse maruader.It has a 30 inch draw length.The guy I bought it from works at the plant with me.I'm shooting gold tip carbon arrows that are 30" long.does that sound right?My height is 6'4 and the guy I bought it from is the same.he said our reach would be the same.There is a bow shop not to far from me and I'm going to take by there on wed. and get them to check it out.Great forum guy's.

    weight

    I bought my bow used I don't know the draw weight on it.Is it any way I can check this?The guy I bought it from told me he thinks it is at 80 pounds with a 65% letoff.Does this sound right? I don't think i need that much pounds.
  24. Just went bowhunting for the first time.There's nothing like it.The only deer hunting I've ever done was with a rifle.Bought my first bow back in the summer.A few friends at work got me into this.I'll be hunting with my bow until all of the deer season goes out here in south central VA.I wish I had got into bowhunting at a younger age.I guess it's never to late to start though.Good luck to all this season.
