I have always shot right or left handed when it came to rifles but mostly right hand. I shot a compound bow for 17 years right handed. Last year I started shooting recurves and longbows and found I was more accurate left handed. While I am right handed I am left eye dominate. I managed to kill 2 buc...

Unless they changed it this year you still can't hunt Ft. Campbell with a crossbow unless your handicapped. Makes no sense to me with TN and KY allowing them. There are some monsters on the FT but there is also a call in system for each day and areas you can hunt can change daily. You have to buy a ...

I have just got into crossbow hunting in the last few months and with my vortex I have maybe 300 shots. I changed the setup several times and have now got it ready to hunt. I just posted pics in a thread on here of my groups off handed at 30yds and feel its a dead deer if he shows up at 30yds. Left ...

Most on here are probably better shots than I. Wealth has nothing to do with me shooting 4 at one dot :lol: I find it easier to read my shooting when I see the arrows together in groups than aiming at different dots. So far I have 11 of 12 arrows. As long as I have 6 for deer season I'm good. I have...

I'm sure it has nothing to do with the bow its the shooter no doubt. The only thing on the bow that I could imagine causing it would be a stiff trigger which I doubt is the problem. More likely the "loose nut" behind the stock.

I may be a trigger jerk :D Yes there was wind. I guess recoil could be a possibilty although I never even notice it. Cossack you may have it as my dad shoots left handed and scoped rifles don't shoot to the same point for him as for me. Even though I can shhot with either hand but now that I think a...

I shot off handed at the same 30yds. the shot grouped to the right were right handed and the 3 to the le...

Inconsiderate

Its a pet peeve of mine. Someone post something for sale. Then someone else who has no intention to buy it makes a reply about it being over priced. Thus making it harder for the original guy to make a sale. Then on top of that they sometimes even make claims that they can buy new ones cheaper but o...

Canadians do have cost factors that the guys from the US don't consider.

I don't see a case listed.

You might save a little money from "Western Hunting Online" if they ship to Sweden.
