Re: Micro 355 Brace Height?
Congrats on the new Micro 355. Jeff will be jealous :lol: The new bows do not have brace lines on the rails. Just keep it off the reds and you are good. I keep mine 1/4" off. Being 1\2" behind you are good to go the string will creep some. Do not shoot if it gets close enough to touch the...

Re: Is This Really Archery Hunting?
By definition....It IS NOT a bow or an "Airbow". The name is no more accurate than the term "Arrow gun" is for crossbows. Disabled won't be able to use it in any "archery season" as it's a "firearm" by definition and unless I'm mistaken there aren't any state...

Re: Brace Height / REDS...Does this look right?
My line on my MICRO 335 puts string about 1/4 inch..Boy these micros are bear to pull back to replace string I broke the string on my cocker..I took tip and got Paracord 550 at wal-mart and it did not break.. Doesn't sound right. It's no more difficult to replace the string using the cocking rope o...

Re: Micro
IMHO get tje 335. Not much difference in cocking effort. I domt know the price difference either but 315 comes without reds and a cheeck piece. I got my 2 micro 335 way below the price of 315 and they gave me a Tact-zone scopes upgrade..You get reds/cheekpiece like stated above...Most likely the 31...

I mean its not for me and I dont see it out selling crossbows or verticals but its another way to do it. We should be care...
