First visit to my local archery shop

By

Finally made the trek to my local archery shop and wow was that awesome! Tried out as many bows as I could like everyone said I should do and the two that felt the best were the Mathews V3X 29 and the Bowtech solution SS…of course $1,000+ bows lol.

Between the two the bowtech drew smoother but the Mathews felt just as good in every way. I tried out a few “mid-tier” bows but they didn’t feel anywhere close as good to the higher end bows and I can justify the extra money for either the Mathews or bowtech after shooting them and others.

Am I crazy to spend this much money on my first bow? I don’t want to outgrow a bow in terms of features and experience and be back buying another one in a year or two. The cheaper bows just felt awful for a bow that’s still $500 plus compared to the higher end bows.

Any insight into making my first bow purchase is appreciated! Also if anyone shoots those two bows let me know what you think and how you like it!

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
