Before I went back to the whisker biscuit, I shot a G5 Expert II drop away. It was pretty good
-
No problem. I don't think the vanes with have much of a difference. And yes, the downside of shooting the wrong spined arrows is that you will not get the arrows to group. FYI it is generally better to be overspined than underspined arrows. A lot of hunters (including myself) shoot a stiffer arrow on purpose because they are heavier. A heavier arrow is quieter and has more Kenetic energy behind it.

Ok if you shoot 100 grain broadheads, you will be a little underspined with those arrows. Your set up should be good to go with a 75 grain broadhead, but that may throw off your FOC (it can get complicated). My advice is go get 100 grain broadheads and shoot them to see how they group. If your not sure on the terminology, "underspined" means that when you shoot the arrow, it will bend and flex a little too much and your arrow isnt stiff enough.

Looks like the bow I grew up shooting! I can't help you with the rest question because I have no idea. As for the weight of a broadhead, to get it "right", we would need to know the length of the arrows and the spine. What is the 4 digit number on the arrows (2312, 2215, ect)? I fletch my own arrows, and use a knife to scrape off the larger chunks of glue, and then rub the shaft with denatured alcohol. The alcohol works way better than goo gone. The fletchings are a personal choice.

AZ Senators=RINOs
Curtis Reed replied to longbowpilot's topic in Political Discussions related to hunting
Don't invest in any politician (except Ron Paul lol). They will inevitably let you down or stab you in the back. Politicians are power hungry, narcissistic blowhards that have one person they care about.... Themselves. Unfortunately, the sheep in this country eat up the crap they spew out of their mouths. Ron Paul was the Tea Party before there was one 30 years ago. -
2013 Model Year End Bow Sale

I wish I knew this last month! I just bought a 2013 Assassin.... -
Buying a gun online is like buying a fishing pole from Amazon. Only difference is instead of shipping to your home, you need to have it shipped to an FFL so you can complete the 4473 form before you take possession. It's easy.

+1 what he said. I have bought 4 guns from Buds. Best prices... NO TAX and free shipping!

Democrats and republicans are the same. They work together behind the scenes and then in the public eye they act like they are working against each other. Look no further than the crap Boehner pulled with his secret meeting with Harry Reid on how to get congress exempt from Obamacare.... Google it. Only politician that I have had any hope in the last decade was Ron Paul. He was the last TRUE STATESMAN Read the last paragraph in this article: http://benswann.com/breaking-john-boehner-and-harry-reid-secret-meetings-to-protect-their-own-healthcare-subsidies/ -
Questions about a bow case & flying
Curtis Reed replied to 6ANut's topic in Bows, arrows, broadheads
I don't ship my bow, I just fly with it. I pay to check it like any other piece of luggage. I have never had a problem yet -

I am from Minnesota and miss it less and less every year. The people are very nice and the slow paced, small town living is what I miss. I don't miss the weather (especially winter), high taxes, and mosquitoes. Not to mention the liberals are ruining that state. The Twin Cities are the epicenter of progressive liberalism, and the other 90% of the state is rural and full of good blue collar people. Good luck though! The hunting is great, I am leaving two weeks from today for a whitetail hunt at our cabin near Mille Lacs Lake

I've been to Oahu, Kuwai and Maui. Oahu was nice but full of people/tourists. Kuwai was beautiful but not much to do aside from the beach (not many restaurants, ect). I liked Maui the best because it was a happy medium between Oahu and Kuwai. There was lots to do in Maui and not as crowded as Oahu.

Shooting Bows and pellet guns within a 1/4 mile of a building
Curtis Reed replied to wayno945's topic in The Campfire
You have to check with city ordinances too. I believe at one time shooting a bow in the City of Surprise was illegal or was a proposed ordinance that didn't pass. I can't remember which -

Really?

I disagree. I have bought used bows before from people I know, but I have bought new bows too. Spending $500+ for a bow sight unseen off the internet makes me uneasy. I know people who have been ripped off. If you plan on keeping a bow for a while, a new bow comes with lifetime warranty and is not the worst investment. I just bought a 2013 Bowtech Assassin straight from the dealer for $499. They are going for almost that much used on archery talk.
