Finished setting up my bow!

[BlackwaterHunter]

So today I made a trip to the proshop in pg. I am now finished with setting up my 50 pound apa mamba m7, I have a cobra boomslang 4 pin sight, carbonblade 8.5 inch stabilizer, black wrist strap, apa twister cd rest. My equiment is as follows: Neet side quiver, Gorilla grip arrow puller, 6 easton platinum plus 2115,xx75 aluminium arrows, 8ft of rubber peep tubing, 2 allen key sets, and a tru ball release. So glad it is finally complete! :D

[BlackwaterHunter]

Im heading to the range tomorrow, last week I shot 285! sure hope i can do the same if not better tomorrow!

[killman]

Good luck! Where is the range you go to?

[BlackwaterHunter]

Thanks! and Silvertip

2115 xx75 aluminums? why not carbon shafts? Just curious....

[BlackwaterHunter]

Carbon shafts are a pain in the ass to pull out of foam targets, and for target they work fine.

Thanks! and Silvertip

In the school or outdoor? How far can you shoot in the school?

[Bow Walker]

Carbon shafts are a pain in the ass to pull out of foam targets, and for target they work fine.

Use a bit of arrow lube and carbon shafts slide out very easily. If you don't have arrow lube - use a bar of soap. Rub the soap up and down the arrow for about 6 to 8 inches behind the tip and you're good to go.

Carbon shafts are waaay more durable than aluminums. Could get expensive - as the aluminums get a bit bent.

[BlackwaterHunter]

Ive been shooting aluminums for 8 years, I honestly beleive they are way better than carbons for a few reasons, first they can be straightened if they get bent, carbons shatter, second I have gotten carbon slivers in my hand before, and they hurt like a son of a b****h, third i find them to be way more reliable.

And The school, 18.5 meters, but its not open to the public, you have to have a membership and even then you can only shoot when someone with a entry card is there also.

[BlackwaterHunter]

And I only shot 256 today, having trouble getting used to my new stabilizer

[Bowzone_Mikey]

the school is only good for 18 meters ... outdoor range will be open probally mid april ..

I shot at the school on thursday nite with the New Pure and my lil knittin needle arrows ...

[BlackwaterHunter]

Cant wait for the outdoor season to start!

[Bowzone_Mikey]

Wow sounds like a porno! I just flung a few outside. Out to 40 from the neighbors yard to mine. :)

[Bowzone_Mikey]

I can get 40 yards in my driveway .... I havent yet with the new PURE ... but after shooting it the other nite ... I am in love .... yesterday I was down all day in bed with cold .... so didnt shoot at all ...

[BlackwaterHunter]

That's the funniest thing that I've heard all day. As soon as an aluminum shaft gets tweaked, it should go in the garbage.

[Bow Walker]

Hey, knockturnal - some guys like to live in the stone age....

[BlackwaterHunter]

Haha sorry if you guys disagree but alot of the top archers I know shoot aluminums, soo i guess its a personal preferance

[Bow Walker]

Ya know - aluminums are good for target archey. My bro' used them to good affect in his first attempt at the Vegas Spots Shoot. Carbons rule when it comes to hunting though.

But whatever you like to use - the point is that you're getting out there and using them! Good on you.

[BlackwaterHunter]

Haha well to be honest havent bow hunted yet, Ive shot target archery since I was 6 but havent hunted yet! But that shall change this year, Thanks
