Re: Susquehanna stripers an walleye
Nice, I miss fishing for walleyes with my dad. He was an excellent walleye fisherman and used to make his own buck tail jigs. We used to fish off the hydroelectric dam in Susquehanna Depot.

Re: Here we go again!
It's got to be your scope. If you are certain everything else is tight and you are cocking the same way every time it has got to be your scope or mounts! These bows are so simple that the only thing left that could be the scope. Post a couple of pictures of you limbs from the top down, maybe someone...

Re: Bowtech Styrkezone
There is a video on you tube right now of a guy with one of bowtech's vert bows that blew up in his hands. He claims that the life time warrantee is not going to be honored and he seems fairly upset. The comments on that vid have been disabled.

Re: 43.5 yards
I shot that hog last year with a 25.06 in South Carolina. We tried North Carolina this year and I got skunked, my daughter killed 2, one with her vert bow and one with a gun. Her boy friend did the same 1 bow and 1 gun.

Re: 43.5 yards
I guess I still for some reason don't think it will shoot like it does. These bows are amazing!

43.5 yards
I had to post this group. I love my vortex Firebolts, easton wraps that don't quite fit and blazers, 100 grain tips. I ruined one of the flat nocks in this group.

Re: axiom scope and advertised velocity
To get to 305fps you'll have to use an FFF string and arrows as close to 350 grains as you dare to go. As far as accuracy goes a heavy arrow isn't necessarily more accurate than a light one. Heavy arrows are more quiet, lighter arrows have a flatter trajectory. Take your pick. I think you'll find th...

Re: Bucks Still Have Antlers
That cudde back takes nice pictures. I never would have guessed that any bucks here in Pa. still had their racks. Around here they will drop them pretty early. My daughter shot what she thought was a big doe a couple of years ago in Dec. and it turned out to be a buck. I've seen people dragging thei...

Re: Ibex accurate to 180 Meters !
Sounds like you need a sight similar to what used to be mounted on the M203 grenade launcher. It sits off to the side so the weapon can be elevated. It uses a dual peep sight and was pretty accurate. I could put those orange chalk practice rounds through a car window at 200 meters no problem.
