in reply to: Fletching jig #20446

i bought a Bitzenburger jig and it’s great! i got the right helical and use right wing (for no peticular reason cause it doesnt matter anyway),, so ive stripped old arrows and re-fletched them, bought new and fletched them.. fun to just change them up every once in a while, some i crest some i dont… but the jig itself is easy to use and does a PERFECT job..

i have a very old bear Kodiak Hunter 44#, i just made a set of XX75’s for it…im going to see how this bow stacks up against my 60# Super Kodiak on the first doe that walks by and stops broadside under 20 yrds as soon as the rut ends!

in reply to: Waterproofing feathers?? #10376

i use Gateway Feather’s 100% waterproof feather powder… i’ve always used it and it has always worked 100%.. one evening last week it was raining hard,,, i watched the water roll right off.. then again ive shot in the rain (without it) and still did quite well.

yep, it’s on the left side of your “home” page screen. And i can’t imagine why no one uses it.. im always ck’g what’s on ebay.. it should be here!

turtle, since my post ive been reading a lot about my question.. im pretty sure the only difference is that the take down is able to be “taken down”.. and that’s all. im not concerned about flying someplace with the bow but my idea is that when i have to drag my deer a mile or longer through the mountains that i can take the bow down and put it in my back pac freeing up both hands. I’ve dragged many a deer a long distance with the bow in one hand and the drag rope over my shoulder and im pretty tired of that and the ATV is outta the question!

thanks guys.. i guess i’ll be one of those guy’s with a bunch of bows! i have 3 bears already and i do like them but i dont think ive found my sweety yet… someone wrote on here “so many bow’s so little time” … ive sold the Harley so i figure a bow here and there wont hurt!

sorry, i meant recurve. funny you say pma ll cause thats the one im thinking about, the greay bark 58 in. maybe 60in. 60# @28.
as far as travel… not in the near future and i’d prob drive anyway.
as far as limiting to the two brands.. it’s pretty much been narrowed down to the two models.. bear takedown or the bw pma 11 (or the widow one piece)…ive seen the Shrews.. i do like the them but i already have the bear magnum 48 and i like it very much. i also have and mostly use my bear super kodiak (60# @28) just thinking about getting something “better”… but is there really such a thing as “better” than a super kodiak? not speaking of price of course.
