  1. I’ll be interested in seeing how you like it. I’ve thought about getting one but just not sure.

    I’m liking it a lot. I like that there is one focal point and a clear line of sight.

     

    I have actually “forgotten” to adjust the range a couple of times which is scary. I guess I’m just not used to it yet.

     

    Outside of the operator error, it’s been really great so far.

  2. My wife and I moved recently, and live by Floyd’s Fork in Jefferson County.

     

    I’m wanting to try setting some limb lines on Floyd’s fork for catfish.

     

    Anyone have experience doing this? I’m curious about:

     

    What type of line I should use?

    What type of bait?

    Should I use classic circle hooks?

  3. Dude I’m going to go ahead and give my 100% endorsement.

     

    This is making a gigantic difference in how I’m shooting. Misses right and left have virtually been eliminated.

     

    In my hand I can physically feel the bow wanting to tip forward. It’s straightened my arrow flight a lot!

    ...
  4. Easton bought Beman back in the 90's I believe but wasn't sure if they made them in the same factory.

    I actually don’t know which factory produces them.

     

    Another definite upgrade was the Blazer brand vanes on the arrows. There is a huge difference in quality between these and the vanes on my other arrows.

  5. Do you know if Bemen still makes Cabelas arrows? I believe Carbon Express makes Bass Pros and didn’t know if anything changed when BPS bought Cabelas.

     

    Actually I think Easton makes both Beman and Cabelas arrows. I found that out a couple days ago when researching arrows.

  6. I currently don't have one and to be honest it's probably been a mistake. I will be getting one this year and leaning towards a Bee Micro Hex in 8" or 10".

     

    IMO, 4" isn't long or heavy enough to do what a stab is designed to do so unless you are using it for vibration reduction only then it's pretty useless. I think most would be very surprised at how a proper stabilizer will change the way you shoot. It's one of those things that you don't realize what you were missing until you try it.

    I did end up going with the BStinger 10 inch one. It was expensive but I can definitely tell that my pin is more stable.

  7. Well, after a season of hunting at Taylorsville lake, I can say I’m really liking public land.

     

    I saw deer nearly every trip out...

     

    - I shot and missed a deer I should have nailed.

    -I had deer come in to 15 yards in September that I didn’t see until they saw me(which is the worst)

    -had a small buck walk close enough for me to almost touch

    - had a nice buck that I was scared off by another hunter walking through the woods. It was really close to presenting a shot.

    - I did end up killing a button buck that I thought was a doe, but it was with 6 or so other deer, one really nice buck.

     

    All in all, I’m pleased with the opportunities that I had presented to me, and I think I have some spots that should produce in the future.

  8. I have shot a 4 pin fixed sight for a while and I’m needing to upgrade, mostly because I messed mine up by tightening it too hard.

     

    I really want a single pin sight, but I’m nervous about making adjustments on the fly.

     

    Do any of you all have any experience with a single pin sight?
