Question for Satori owners - stacking in your experience?

By

I recently had the great pleasure of shooting a friend's 21" Tiburon with short Trad limbs (so a total 62 AMO) and while at 45 lbs it was a bit overbowed for me I noticed less stacking than with other hunting-style ILF bows of the same size. Which is surprising given the short limbs!

By the end of it, I didn't feel like I had just shot several ends with a 45 lb bow, which for me would typically stack to 47+ lbs.

I don't know how much of that is due to the Formula system, or the quality of the limbs, or the geometry of the riser. Probably a combo of some sort I would presuppose. Assuming a Formula hunting rig is out of reach due to availability, I have some specific Qs about the Satori that I can't seem to find addressed in reviews.

  1. If you have a long draw, what is your experience with stacking between a Hoyt 19" or 21" riser versus other risers? How about the limbs, do they feel more linear on one riser or another?
  2. If you have also tried the earlier Hoyt "Formula" hunting risers (Tiburon, Buffalo, any others) do you feel increased stability or decreased stacking with Hoyt-made Formula limbs, versus a Hoyt-made ILF setup?

Help me identify a problem with aiming.

By
So im trying to learn how to gap shoot, but the problem is, the first step is 'use the tip of the arrow'. Now when I do this, I can already tell before shooting that if I use the tip of the arrow, the shot will go way left, this is obviously before even factoring in the gap above and below the target. I don't have too much trouble grouping in the yellow at 10ms, but the way im 'aiming' is just looking at the target and knowing that I need to shoot a certain distance to the right and a certain distance down. Im not using the arrow tip here...its hard to say exactly what im using as the reference its just a feeling I guess? I wouldn't say its instinctive as im definitely trying to aim I just don't know how im doing it, and I don't think it would hold up as I increase distance so I want to learn how to gap shoot properly. I appreciate having to adjust up or down as thats part of gap shooting, but if im having to compensate right, what could the problem ...

(New?) Dual Takedown Recurve Case Option

By
Before I get to the case. HUGE shoutout to u/FerrumVeritas to all of his fawking awesome posts about equipment, risers, etc. Me and some friends started archery a few weeks ago, and after weeks of looking around and compiling info, the best I could share with my friends are mostly his posts interspersed with my own opinions and analysis in our shared spreadsheet. To the case! Not that I looked, but it doesn't look like anyone has done this yet? I wanted a case, but didn't want to carry around a rifle sized case. Nor did I want something obscenely heavy. I prefer a hardcase, but they were all exorbitantly expensive. I like the look of SKB, and the reviews and reputation is there; but for the price, I don't feel like the value is there. I also wanted something a bit different. Enter the Pelican 1605 Air! Website measurements showed a 25" riser was a tight fit in the Pelican, so I took a gamble that 1/2" of foam was plenty to protect the riser's ends. ...

Question on bow fit - Mathews V3 31"

By
Long story short: I decided after 2 years to upgrade my used Dreniln. Went in to a local shop and they steered me towards a V3. In hindsight they didn't spend near as much time with me as they should have. Anyway, my wingspan is just under 76" and the bow is set at it's max draw length of 30.5". In order to get a good sight picture and have my nose touch the string, I need to tilt my head down just slightly, which then causes my jaw to change position and a loose a bit of my anchor point. Is this common for a shorter bow, or should I really have gone with a bow that goes to 31" and/or a longer axle to axle to get a better angle? V3s are hard to come by around here so I may be able to recoup most of the cost of the bow if I decide to switch. Not sure what to do. I went back to the bow shop and the guy said "That's the cool thing about archery, some people move there head, lean back, lean forward, it's all a matter of how you want to shoot"...I...
