Oh, well it would still be nice to have specs...
I have been shooting this bow a while and it calls for a 36 inch dacron string.
I want to know the correct A2A specs or brace height or whatever it is supposed to have because I want to know if I...
I hope that isn't rude or seem selfish because I would like to make a mutually beneficial trade for something you could potentially not want.
I'm almost ready to make my next bow not be a Martin....
WELL if you decide not to restore it, I would like a crack at maybe trading a computer or something for it. (Not that I have a computer right now, but I don't have lots of money.)
How big is it?...
I found this nice tutorial...

This looks to me to be the ideal string loop. It does not however work with my release....
Okay, now I get it!!! Thanks!!
I decided to try using my bathroom mirror to adjust my draw length.
This is how I did it. If my elbow is supposed to be aligned with the arrow and that is how I tell if my draw length is the...
I understand now that the blade is not just for slicing a bigger hole, but also for penetration.

Seems to me like the bow manufacturers may be suffering from the same assumptions that car stereo amplifier companies do which goes like this:
"If we don't put outrageous numbers on the box nobody...
Okay I wondered why there weren't any that had any helix. I could probably make a mechanical that would straighten the blades on impact, but by the time I do all that I might as well have a...
My first few shots with it were like... "SUPRIZE!!!" and I was like WHOA!! Now I;ve gotten used to it going off really really easy it is okay because I can do really good shots with it. I like how...
I think I'll blow some graphite lube into the place where it is supposed to rotate around because I realize that it rotates when I draw and doesn't do that very smoothly and catches a little.
I...
I have no idea what this release is. I think it is old, but I like it because it is like a handle release and a wrist strap release all in one.
I have just started shooting with the release. my...
Okay, cool thanks.
I determined that I needed to twist the string so that I put the draw length back where I had it before. Now that I did that I'm having less problem with the release so I think...
Thanks wscywabbit!!!
I have just put a few twists in my string so that My back is straighter. I feel like the bow is now where it was before =0) I put 8 full turns in so that means one full turn...
I can barely draw my bow with a release attached to the string. I draw it really well with my fingers. I don't know if I like the release at all.
Any tips for going from a finger release to...
Sorry, I must have missed your post. Uhh it just says Gold Tip HUNTER graphite 5575. They came with the bow.
EDIT they have red and white fletching with very little helix to the vanes. I'm using...
Could it actually be that broadheads do NOT turn the arrow, but arrow spine does, the arrow front is more stable with a broad head. The shape is like a wing on a missile. Arrows that are paper tuned...
This is what I mean by broadhead tuning.

COOL! I like the dynabo single cam. !!!LOL!
Well I just found out in another thread I'm not the only one with strange ideas. I'm not going to try making any piano wire cabling, but It might be something to research a little in the future. I...
Looks like that could be made to be a pretty fast recurve!
Thanks bob, I will get new nocks since these are all damaged now, probably from reinserting them over and over again. I think that once I get new nocks then I will be able to shoot again and wear the...
Okay. I wish I could get a job at Martin or something cause I feel more comfortable here.
SOrry if my request was rude. I did not mean for it to be. I would be sharing my stuff and I would rather...
Cool! what other types are there? I mean what if I could take a really strong yet light yarn and wrap it up like a boswtring? Maybe add something else to it like pre-stretched nylon or something that...
