Lots of good information on cresting arrows here and it's really easy to do.

Here's a good video on how to do it.

Instead of using BDU's, I made a poncho for hand concealment.

Goop glue or E6000 should work great.

Now that I've washed it, it is a lot less defined. It has "poofed" out and really does looks like the Swamp Thing. Having it as a poncho works great. I'm able to keep my hands inside and get things out of my pouches without being seen. Those hogs never saw me. It ended up being a pretty ex...

Ghillie poncho and a small hog

It was raining pretty hard last weekend and no deer were moving, but I got this little shoat. My Ghillie poncho was a little unfinished and hadn't been washed in, but I wore it anyway. I've since washed it and it came out awesome. It was easy to make and I only spent $35-$40 to make it. It's the thi...

I found mine in a 50% off box at the archery shop. I'm only seeing the self-adhesive kinds on the rack now. Look for the ones with the screw on backs. I believe mine said "Ultra Hoyt Split LimbSaver" and was in a red package. Limbsavers list model #3452 on their website. http://www.limbsav...

update.... I got tired of looking at the different colored camo tape so I removed it. I was also curious about how much weight the silicon in my stock had added and the answer is 4.5 ounces. I had used the white DAP-ALEX PLUS-Acrylic Latex Caulk Plus Silicone. For now I'm just using gaffer's tape be...

Rifled barrel: Sabot Slugs Smooth barrel: Rifled Slugs/Buck shot I was looking into this a while back but the cost of a rifled barrel for my 390 made me rethink the purchase and want to wait till I find a deal on a slug gun. Sabots are recommended for rifled barrel to get maximum accuracy. They can ...

I meant away from the string might create more vibration and noise at the cost of adding life to the bumpers, but still less vibration and noise than without the STS.

I confused myself.

There might be a slight increase in vibration or noise, but I've wondered if it would make a difference in having the bumpers a small distance away from the string when at rest. That way the stings uses up some of it's energy instead of slamming into the bumpers at full speed when set against the st...

I learned to ride a early 70's Honda XL125 when I was seven. I later moved up to a XL185 through Jr. High and had different bikes through the years. I sold this VX800 a couple years ago and got off the pavement due to too many close calls with cars not looking or intentionally trying to run me off t...

In the past I would always recommend someone to scan for spyware with both Ad-Aware and Spybot S&D. Then I would recommend using any antivirus software as long as it's kept up to date. AVG is the best free antivirus, while I have always had the best luck with Norton Antivirus as a commercial pro...

Feed bags work best, the woven material heals it's self for the most part once the arrow is removed. I tried clothes to stuff it but it was very heavy, and didn't take to the weather very well when I left it outside. I havn't been able to find any oversized feed bags. The ones I found at our farm s...
