Gary I use the rope cocking aid. The shop where I bought it told me they thought it was sharp edges on the riser but the serving is coming apart where the trigger hooks hold the string.

Thanks Butcher, by posting your ? you helped solved why I have to put a new string on my max approx. every 30 shots. New string will be centered. I am on my fourth string now. Thanks again.

Thanks for the help. RJ that is exactly what I was wondering, if I needed the winter camo and by the way it looks awesome. I am going to give it a try again tonight.

hello

I was wondering if the first snowfall in the area would be a good hunting day or wait till they get used to the snow on the ground? Hope you guys with all the experience might help someone relatively new. And is camo still effective in snow conditions or do you need white gear?

Try a new string and use the process of elimination. Hopefully that is all thats wrong.

I was hunting 3 days ago and had a fork horn, a six pointer and 3 does all inside 25 yds and the bucks didn't seem interested in the does one bit. Does anyone else have commments on the rut in this wmu. just wondering if you think it is started yet? Oh yeah the reason I don't have one of them in the...

Congratulations on two very nice bucks. You two must have one hell of big trophy room!!!!

That was my post above. One thing I forgot to say was not to shoot expandable broadheads at this target, I learned that the hard way. I broke two blades off in the target and I shot in the same spot and the buried blades cut a brand new carbon bolt on me.

No. Spent most of the day Fri. in my stand and stalking through the bush and didn't even see one. I have to work today and Sun. I am going to try again Mon.

Has anyone else bought these ? I bought a set Sat and shot them at my target, they seem very accurate. Just wondering if anyone else had tried them yet.

Congrats on the nice deer.

I had the same problem with mine on Sat but the reason was my scope mounting bolts were loosening off with every shot I took which let the scope tip downward. I am going to get some lock tite tomorrow to make sure that does happen again. Maybe that is not the problem but just check it to be sure.
