Went through 2 varizones and 1 lumizone. shoot Hawk now. No more problems.

I use the same arrow as Bob 1961 except I use 100 grain Slick Tricks. My broadheads hit right with my field points. My arrow weights 500 grains. They fly 215 fps out of my Equinox. My Hawk Map scope is dead on 20 through 60 yds. At 60 yds. , my fletching is touching and I don't have any flyers as lo...

2117s shoot good from Excals , You can also add 110 gr. brass inserts to the front of 2117s for more FOC.

I shoot the Equinox with 500 grain alumimun arrows and it shoots great.
I have no problems with serving and like Gerald says 10 minutes and you have a brand new serving. Had the 200 lb. and 225 . Sold the 200 kept the 225.

The 500 grain arrow I shoot is very accurate and seems quieter to my ears than the carbons I used to shoot. Everybody has their own opinion.

Aluminum arrows fly better for me than carbons. I think they fletchbetter also.
I use 110 brass inserts in 2117 aluminum shafts and Blazer vanes with100 grain
broadheads. Total weight 500 grs. I've bent one arrow this year and that was with another arrow. Tenn.

Rescue One CDS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What do you think of the new Controlled Descent System full-body safety harness. Twenty five feet up hanging in mid air would be a bad place to learn they don't have all the bugs worked out. I hunt mostly...

I like sitting in my treestand with my tree mounted umbrella in a drizzling rain
and fog settling in taking catnaps with one eye open.

Thanks for the replys. Guess I'll just cover it with my hand. I don't think I wanta
be slapped to death. Joint in my arm has been bothering me. Getting old ,
so I ordered one from Mr. Miller. Thanks, Tenn.

How you doing Wes

Has any one tryed cranking in a treestand with the catch off. I know you
would have to have a good grip on the handle to keep from looseing your
fingers , but it would be totally quite. Thanks, Tenn.

Try the API Quik Stik from Bass Pro Shop. Aluminum light, easy set up quickly,
very easy to climb. Four sections 16 ft. or 5 sections 20 ft. strap on.
very safe, no monkey balanceing act. Double step for both feet at same height, not staggered steps.

Wyvern Creations on the web. Great guy to do business with too.

I know what you mean Raymond, Wes sent me a half dozen arrows also.

He is a good friend.
