So I posted in the General Discussion section a week or so ago about possibly getting an Archery / Bow Hunting section. I was informed that most of the bow talk gets posted here in this section. I did some shootin last week when it was nice out and there was pretty much no wind. I usually shoot the most at 50 and 60 yards. This time I moved back to 70 yards and the pic is a group from there. I dont have a pin at that distance, so I just had to hold over about a foot. That was with my Diamond Liberty which is the one on the right.
I just picked up the other bow yesterday. I only shot it a few times today just to try it out since it was so windy.
The left one is a Mathews Monster XLR8. I havent had a chance to go by the bow shop and check the poundage and the speed. It says 60 to 70lbs, so Ill max it out to 70, but some bows will sometimes be a little over their max. The arrows that came with it I need to get weighed as well. I think they may be a little light for the monster, so Ill likely use my old arrows, that I know weigh 398gr and have a stiffer spine.
Heres the specs
2007 Diamond Liberty 70lb 29" draw. Chrono'd 3 shots last weekend at 276, 277, 277.
TruGlo 5 pin sight
Blue G5 3/16" peep
NAP Apache rest
Arrows are Beeman ICS Hunter 340's weighing 398gr w/ 85gr fieldtip
Mathews Monster XLR8
HHA Optimizer Sight
Red G5 peep, 1/4" I think
Trophy Ridge Pro Shot Whisker Biscuit. I plan on changing this to some type of drop away rest. Maybe a Ripcord.
Arrows are Easton Flatline 400's, weight unknown at this time.
As the title says, Id like to see what everyone else is shooting and pics if possible.
