Just got a Bear Archery Grizzly, a few beginner questions with this bow......

By

Hey everyone, I got a couple questions that I hope some of you can take the time to answer and help me out with...

I've been practicing archery at a very part time basis for the last 2 years, i'd go shooting maybe once a week or two. Anyways, i've been using the Samick Sage 40lb and a Hungarian horsebow that is also 40lb. I have more time now to truly practice the sport now and I had the $ so I ordered a Bear Archery Grizzly 50lb bow. So I guess my questions are.....

  1. I use wooden arrows from amazon, 100 grain, 31 inches across, all "hand made". They have always been very reliable for me compared to carbon arrows, and are very durable and never lose the nocks or arrow tips. Even though it says that they are applicable for 40-60lb bows, can they work for the Grizzly? Or do any of you have any other recommendations?
  2. This bow comes with a Flemish twist Dacron string, very different from the other strings I have, mainly because as I was stringing the bow with my bow stringer, as I was sliding the string down the bows limb, some of the twist was coming undone to fit around the limb as I was stringing it. Is this normal? Is there any extra care I should consider with these Dacron strings?

Shibuya vs Axcel vs other top end sights?

By
So my budget has increased and i decided i'm going for a top-level sight for the target style recurve i'm building. It seems that Shibuya and Axcel are the top end, so for anyone who has experience with either one of them, or preferably both, could you tell me the differences, pros and cons, and which one is the best value? i'm planning on buying the most expensive, so the Axcel Achieve XP - Recurve or the Shibuya Ultima RC PRO Carbon Sight . If there's any other top end sights you think are better, let me know. I want this to be the first and last sight that i ever buy, and price doesn't really matter. Another question, on the Shibuya there's an option for "Single mount" and "Double mount." What do those mean? And lastly, is the sight aperture on either of the sights suitable, or is there better after-market apertures that are better? I'm sort of thinking that is something I should be buying from my local shop so i can actually te...

Is there any reason mediterranean and slavic draw shoot from opposite sides of the bow

By
When the release imparts the same twist on the string? It was my understanding that mediterranean draw has the arrow on the side opposite of the bow of the draw hand because of the twist imparted on the string affecting the arrow on release but that should mean that slavic draw would suffer from that problem. Am I missing something with this? Shouldn't that mean you could use a mediterranean draw on the same side of the bow as the draw hand and not have issues?

Are my new arrows overspined?

By
Are 400 spine, 27" arrows overspined for 30 pound draw weight? The guy just picked the arrows, cut them and gave them to me. my old arrows were 500 spine, 32" so when I said that they looked overspined, he just shrugged and said "the chart says they're ok". Can anyone confirm my doubts? submitted by /u/Astaziel [link] [comments] from newest submissions : Archery https://ift.tt/3pmjVLf via
