Re: Wrapping foot stirrup with what? V

I use the rubber grip that is made for wrapping the grip on a bow or compound.
Quiets it down and absorbs vibration. Waterproof too.

Re: Zeroing in Matrix 355

When I had the Tact Zone scope, I believe I had it set on about 330 FPS with the stock string. As stated above: zero in at 20 yards. Back off to 40 or 50 yards - shoot from a rest of some sort. If you hit high, increase your speed. If low, turn it down a little. You should stay zeroed at 20 yards af...

Re: *** HAPPY EASTER ***

I too wish everyone a Happy Easter. Just read an article today on the net that stated how some people had decided that the Easter Bunny was not " politically correct". Believe it was in the state of Washington. They are trying to pass a law that the Easter Bunny and egg hunting is no more....

Re: My review after 87 shots. KATIPO aka matrix 380

Nice review, Matt. I am in complete agreement on the Tact Zone scope. Loved the light weight and it was extremely clear when held just right. We are talking absolute dead on, don't twitch, don't blink, don't breath dead center. Problem being, if you did not have your eye dead center in one very smal...

Re: Matrix string

The cocking aid that came with my Matrix is shorter than the one for my Equinox, naturally. You can always tie a knot in one end to shorten it. Should have gotten one with the Matrix, I think. If you tie a knot in it, you will probably find it easier to have one for each bow. Might not get the knot ...

MATRIX QUESTION

Hey Guys ( & Gals) --- Quick question please. Got my new 355 an hour ago. Love it. Would someone tell me how high you are carrying your brace height? I am sitting about 1/2 inch above the parting line ( where limbs bolt to stock). The rail has no lines like my Equinox. This is where they had it ...

Re: What are we doing?

Wow Fellas - Must be time for me to come out of the closet. All I do is think about feeling my cheek next to his. I am constantly wiping him down with a soft cloth and running my hand down his long rail. Then I see myself loading my 20 incher in his slot, slowly pulling his trigger and hitting the b...

I read this forum every day because there are a bunch of really good folks on here. Somebody on here has a problem or sickness, half the people on here start...

Second day - see above ------------ Oh well -- Spring turkey season will be here in a couple months. Ho...

Re: Thank you "Smokepole" Matrix 380

I use those strings to tie on cat whiskers. They seem to be in a perfect position for that purpose. I am sure that they also help keep the string together until it is on the xbow and stretched. This may not be right, but that is what I use them for. I will also state that Mike is one of the kindest,...
