Newcom 2000 Pro gets my vote!!!!!!

By traditional, I mean non-wheel bow. I've got a couple of the compounds, but I just can't get that same feeling of enjoyment that I do with my recurve. I just bought (will be here in 5 weeks) a Quinn's Stallion with metal riser and laminated limbs. The bow riser window is past center shot so...

Since I shoot traditional, most of the time, pro-shops don'r really help me out, I buy through Lancaster, 3 Rivers, and Bowhunters Superstore, I'm 55 miles from the closest range/proshop so I shoot 20 yards in the back yard and do all of my own work/setups, arrows cutting/fletching . I also...

They consistently win 1000 yard matches. That caliber was the king of long range for many a year. I shoot a Stevens 200 with reworked stock, trigger, bedded and 20 MOA mounts and can hit an 8" gong at 800 yards all day long off the bench with factory Black Hills 190 grain. I'd go out to the...

I have killed two elk. the first was with a .53 patched round ball from about 75 yards with a high shoulder shot, the elk went down like he was poll axed,,,1 step and folded. The second was from an 8mm rem mag at about 500 yards quartering away down hill. Took the same high shot with the same...

Please don't forget that not all bows have wheels on them!!! I own and shoot crossbow, recurve and traditional. Once learned, instinctive shooting with a GOOD recurve or longbow, will most of the time outpleasure any type of shooting there is, I shoot all my bows every week-end but when I get...

The last set of dinked up threads I had to fix was on a small block chevy moter mounts, I just filled them in with steel JB Weld and retapped them, but than again I'm not a machinest, and they only let me work on computers where you can't use any high end tools,,anyway good-luck on your...

Karsten Cheekpiece: Karsten's Custom Camo :: Products For Sale

Using the "DUCK" anology: If it looks like a rifle: If it shoots like a rifle (bolt, in-line breech): If it has bullets (jacketed) like a rifle: If it has sights (scopes) like a rifle: If it has powder like a rifle (smokeless): If it has the range of a rifle (or nearly): Than by golly...

I'd still look closer at the stock, my group size decreased drastically after I stiffened up the forearm and bedded the action in the tupperware stock. There is a ton of flex there that you propably aren't seeing on the bench. also added weight to the butt and put on a Karsten cheekpiece to...

I've heard good things about the Lee Classic!

The Muzzy 4 flies out of my Excaliber Vixen crossbow like a field tip and I can group 6 shots in a 2" circle at 20 yards. They will take down anything I hit them with, using my crossbow. I can't get them to fly very well from the compound or recurve, so I don't use them. They seem to plane...

30 yards with 40lb recurve shooting 2016's with 160 grain Woodsman,,those arrows drop like a rock,,,but they sure do kill good!! Light bow,,heavy arrows,,,don't have too good of a trajectory!! But I ALWAYS hit what I aim at, and it dies real quick!

I've hunted with muzzleloaders for over 30 years. I started with a Sante Fe Hawken with a 34" barrel, buckhorn sights, patched round ball and FFg blackpowder. That gun has killed mulies, whitetails, bear, elk and a couple of turkeys, not including the numerous vermin that got caught in my...
