How many hunt using a compound bow

[BigRAWesty]

The alloy joints that hold the strings together can fail.. And a local club can confirm this as it happened at our club on a cheaper bow..

But this was a second hand bow and history unknown so just keep an eye on em..

Did ya get onto some grunters mate?

no pigs mainly deer and goats, looking at getting out this dry season for a Buff..... but shoulder is killing me at the moment so might have to wait.

This is my faithful OLD GLORY by Bowtech pulls 73lb, i use a mixture of Easton power flight 360 and 400 spine carbon arrows tipped with either 100gr ribtecks or 100 gr black stumps that's for goats rabbits and deer and for pigs I use port oxford cedar shafts tipped with tusker Aztecs only because I found hunting pigs with a heavy arrow and heavy heads I have got better penetration... But that's just my opinion.

Bow came in today, 1st time owning a compound bow and is impressive for a mid range .

Will get Gecko to give us a hand setting it up and will post pics later

[BigRAWesty]

I finally got to put 30 odd arrows down range. Loved it..
Hit some serious changes to make though.. First up I need to reduce my draw length now with the release aid.
Next it adjust the peep as it's to low.
Then shoot in again.

Was great fun though..

Draw back with your eyes closed with your natural grip. Open them and that's where your peep needs to be

[BigRAWesty]

Will do once I sort my draw length

You should be able to slide the serving then the peep on the string and do as growler said over and over till its in the right spot then re tighten serving close to the peep.

You can get metal jackets that slide inside the arrow to up the weight as well so it's not just tip heavy.
