Hutch, I was going to recommend Loesch grips but alas it appears he's no longer in business - at least I couldn't find his business on the web any more. I thought about Martin's Thermal Elite at the...

A while back a friend came to our home to shoot with me on our rural back yard range. He commented on how quiet my 08 Firecat was during the shot. Later, he was visiting his brother in Florida who...
I'm still getting back into shooting my bow after rotator cuff surgery last Nov, but as I recall from shooting with my "bent rod" setup before then, I did notice some improvement in...
Not to steal anyone's thunder or suggest you don't do your own testing if that's what you want to do, but there have been several BH tests on AT over the past year. One poster, who goes by whitey375,...
Thanks for clarifying that point. Could help others who are considering replacement of their CCS on bows that have them.
FTS, I'm not quite sure what you mean, unless the different colors (brown/black "camo" and silver) are what you're referring to. The rod is all aluminum - I just painted the forward section with flat...
You bet it works and works great. This item is functionally the same as my home-made TRG and slide. I simply used a straight 3/8" aluminum rod and bent it in a couple of areas to duplicate the angle...
Hey Lungbuster, thanks for the compliment. I put the limbsaver on as a precaution. I didn't really notice any noise coming from it but I'm kinda anal about vibes and noise - if there is any I'll try...
I bought one of these and had high hopes it would work for me and my setup, but being an odd-ball, especially regarding broadheads (using Grizzly and Grizzly El Grande/Kodiak), it didn't. I really...
Thanks for the offer Spiker. Right now it's a strong desire but I have to remind myself that I already have a good shooting setup. Plus, we have several home projects that are going to consume some...
While recovering from rotator cuff repair surgery this past fall and winter I had the time to do some upgrades on my ole reliable. I decided to get some Loesch grip side plates, upgrade the sight...
Cool looking bow indeed. If it had 70# limbs I'd seriously consider buying it, especially for the current price he's posted.
Glad to see others celebrating our veterans and acknowledging how much we appreciate their sacrifices. We all owe a lot to them for preserving our nation and heritage.
Definitely some good points and pluses for using feathers. Besides the "vulnerability" to getting feathers wet and the higher cost versus vanes, the only other main reason I see for using vanes is...
Not trying to hijack the thread but I too am impressed with the SSAS glue. I talked with Jerry about this about a year or so back. He assured me this was good stuff, comparing it to what B.....G...
I have a Saunders Hyper-Glide and use it with my home-made TRG rod and it works very nice. And it's smoother than the teflon OEM slide (which also worked well). I haven't checked whether it provides...
Another brand worth considering is Bi-Delta. I'm using the 2.5" Sharkstooth for all my arrows and have been very impressed. They weigh less than 2" Blazers, are .5" tall (like Blazers) and have a...
With the Martin TRG and my own, I have noticed an improvement in the draw cycle, most notably near the end as the draw force curve drops into the valley before coming up against the hard stop/wall....
Well, all I'll say for this thread is this. If you haven't, or aren't willing to read and understand the extensive field test reports by Dr Ashby and/or haven't actually spent the time and effort to...
I beg to differ on both accounts, Destroyer. Higher FOC arrows will fly better and group better. Take a look at Olympic archers and what they shoot - high FOC. And these folks shoot at longer ranges...
If you've read the Ashby reports you'll quickly discover the advantage of heavier and higher FOC arrows. The added mass provides more momentum which enables the arrow to keep moving forward even...
Sorry I haven't been more active and updated this lately. We recently caught a good sale on ceiling fans (20% off) and bought 4 to augment the 2 already in our home. This project has become more...
Interesting. This could lead one to think this pic was taken before the TRG/SOS concept was implemented.
My first bow (old PSE Polaris) could not accept any "modern" rest such as a drop-away so I chose a WB. It worked well enough but the one thing that annoyed me was the waviness it caused along the top...
I don't know how big they are where CK82 lives but the ones here (Colorado), even if they were tasty morsels, wouldn't be worth the time skinning and cooking as they don't have much meat on 'em.
