  1. I have found that only Blazer or Quickspins last with a WB. I use the AAE which has a 1* offset. With the short 2 inch Blazers it's hard to get more offset. Like I said eailer, I am interested in FOBs but I would have to change rests...there is always something to play with in archery. Redman
  2. Shoot a drop-away and maybe your arrow will go where they need to go J/K Humm you may be on to something... I have thought about switching to a drop away so I could shoot FOBs, FOB, I would love not to fletch another arrow. Redman
  3. On average around 2 or 3 fps. 2-3 fps???? I bet Casey is closer at 10 fps.... Casey is not the norm..... 2 or 3 fps is the norm.......the next time I am close to a chrono, I will shoot a bare arrow through my WB on my X-Force. BUT shooting a WB on a X-force is still shooting faster than any other bow If I could only put the arrow where it needs to go Redman
  4. I am still amazed at 130 yds, that guy could group his arrows. No matter what rest a person shoots, that is impressive, with a hunting bow no less. Redman

    time piece

    Not sure what your price range is, but Sunnto watches are probably the best for outdoor activities. Some even have a GPS built in. Redman

    fall-away rests

    Christian hit the nail on the head. I wore my WB out until it was starting to fray and I didnt have luck with accuracy ( I am not the best archery shot at all, so I need all the help I can get!) I switched to a Rip Cord fall away with my gift cards from Xmas and I love it! It's not like the Whisker Biscuit Arrow Rest fails or wears out in one day, the WB can show some wear over time, but one KNOWS this is happening (a replacement disk is $20.00 and takes a minute to install). Drop away rests are very reliable but they DO fail without notice. One must fell comfortable with their equipment (this depends on the person). I used the logic of, which is worse, failing without notice, or knowing something is sloooooooowly wearing out. There is a reason why the WB is the most widely sold rest and it's design drastically changed archery equipment... it's simply the best hunting rest there is. Redman

    FS - Leica Trinovid 8x42 BA $800 (US)

    Thanks. Its too bad more gear suppliers don't advertise here. I was also wondering since there is advertising in signatures and wondered if these were offical sponsors. Redman

    salt and feed no more in 2009

    It was the Antis that pushed for banning baiting AND USE OF HOUNDS in Colorado and Oregon, not hunters. If you don't think the use of dogs will the next thing they go after here, once the baiting is taken away, you are not paying attention. These people are not stupid, they know that they cannot get away with the banning of all hunting, but they can take a little bit away every year until our numbers eventually dry up and die. WAKE UP! Your argument as you stated is a red herring. The rule change in AZ is due to the Game and Fish, not antis. I am neutral on this subject, I guess it's because I have never done it. I thought about it, and was going to do it this year because the great success people are having...... Redman

    salt and feed no more in 2009

    Tony, What? You mean to tell me that other states don't allow bating? Holly molly I thought the Arizona Game and Fish was really stepping away from the norm if it was going to ban baiting. The states you mentioned seem to be pretty good company... Thanks for the post. Redman

    camp trailer

    In September and at night it would cool down without a problem. In July it had to be 115+ at Roosevelt Lake and with the AC on during the day, the inside probally cooled it down to 90? There was an obvious diffference from being inside and out, once the sun went down, it drastically cooled off. The only problem is in order to get a generator to handel the load of the AC I had to buy a Craftsman generator, it's noisy.... to get a Honda to power the AC I was looking at $3500. A long extension cord helps. Redman

    camp trailer

    I got the 10C model (its camo). It is my second pop up. Not sure what info your looking for, but if you are in the market for a pop up, its the way to go. It's built good, but some material is not up to my expectations. The suspension makes going over rocky roads great, it has more clearance than my truck so it will go many places. It pulls great on the highway. It has an inside and outside shower, hot water heater, toilet, refrig, heater, AC.... it has everything. A couple of friends have borrowed it and stated they really liked it. We used it at Roosevelt last year during the hottest weekend of the year, the AC helped cool the kids (obviously I had a generator). The negatives are, the canvas is not as good as my old Viking pop up, I spent a week in Colorado last year and it POURED! everything was damp, but there was so much humidity, hard to say if it was the trailer or not. It does not hold any heat at all, I used it in Jan and sometimes I thought it was colder inside than out (when the heater was not running). It is still a pop up and requires setup. I can get it up in the dark in about 20 minutes. I use an electric drill to put down the jacks and need to find one to lift the roof. I also need to modify the batteries so I can put two 6V (so the heater does not run the battery down in two nights). I talked with a guy who put two 6v and during his moose hunt the heater ran for 9 days with juice to spare. If I had more than 1/2 ton I may of opted for a toy hauler. I got a smoking deal I paid 8k for it, the original owner paid around 14k for it less than a year before. If you need more info, PM me. Like I said, if your in the market for a pop up, it's the way to go. Redman

    Archery Shoots

    Thanks for the responses, I would like to get to one shoot once a month, I npw travel all over the state so can plan to go to any shoot depending on what else is going on. I love the Sunrise shoot, what a great time. I have only been to a few other shoots, in your opinion how do the other shoots compare to Sunrise? I hope to make it this weekend to Usery. Thanks, Redman

    Draw Bow Tags?

    There was a lot of discussion on this a few months ago in the bow hunting forum. Here is a cut and past of another members post' "3A/3C - 150 tags 3B - 75 tags 7 - 500 tags 12A - 1850 tags 13A - 120 tags 13B - 120 tags January 2 week season instated: units 4AB, 8 & 9 .... not sure which 2 weeks December season cancelled: units 17A, 20A, 22, 23, 35A, 37A & 42. All the archery deer hunters that draw a permit for 12A, 13A & 13B can also buy over the counter buffalo and elk tags like the rifle hunters can. Now when they say Dec, cancelled they mean no Dec. hunt but open all of Jan." Redman
