Don’t hurt none to practice Doc. One never knows when one of them heart shots might become necessary.

I know a couple ornery Texans.

Good to see ya hangin’ Doc:D

Back to the weight of things 😀

How do you like shooting with the weight of a bow quiver?

On my longbows I like a bow quiver but small compact ones.

Two arrow ones are my preference. I have two that I’ve made, modified, with parts and pieces of different makes and models of different brands.

They’re lightweight and don’t get in the way but they add just enough weight to feel good.

I do use another that was a four arrow quiver but it’s been trimmed down also. R2ified:D

I rarely hunt with a recurve but when I do I have a one arrow quiver I put on it. It weighs nearly nothing and since my recurve is heavier, in physical weight, it all works out for me.

I saw it before but you edited your post…maybe you have to re-post your pic when you do that?

Maybe so uh. If it’s working, lesson learned. Lost the pic so I find another.

Ha, had to find a backdoor way in but I find!!!!!

Must be people around that do know the difference between arrow weights, weight up front, weight in the aft,:) or there wouldn’t be many, many discussions about the subject.

The point I make is a filed down, wore down point puts less weight on the front of the shaft and I’m thinking that could de-tune some people’s arrows.

Boring as it is maybe a few little things need to be pointed out occasionally perhaps.:)

I believe there’s an old adage saying that it’s the little things that count.

We men of action need to tend to our trusty steel.

Excuses are an afterthought.

If you remember, weight works on the other end of those carbons also. Bruce said so one April past. 😀

See, I can remember things maybe I shouldn’t oughta. :wink :8)

As for prune juice, I prefer lots of money. It relieves the burden in much more pleasant manner.

I always weight new stuff. I was just surprised how much some of the old differed. 125 down to 111 ain’t in the package variable game. 125,121,129 yeah, no prob.

I just mark those shafts so I know whether to draw a 1/4″ inch more or less depending on point weight. 😉

How come that don’t go for me, I shave every morning and I’m old and used. 😀 My weight don’t go down. I’ve been 196# for the last forever.

Doc I can’t believe the perfectionist German side of you would allow a difference of more than a grain. :lol::lol:

Scott I don’t know yays or nays on the topic much but I shoot mine til they get to looking worn some and make another.

I give’em a quick once over each time I string the bow.

If I ever see a bad or suspicious strand I grab another bow til I get a new string made for the questionable one.

I wax’em every now and then and go on.

Other than that????????????:)

Scott I’ve known times at Twenty Nine Palms, CA. in the middle of July, in the middle of the night, that I wished the Corp had issued me a couple more of those itchy wool blankets. 😀

It gets plenty cold here in the TX panhandle, not too far below zero too often but add our incessant fall and winter winds, wool can feel mighty good no matter what color.

Y’all:D, have different issues than we. Got trees??

Hard to hide behind what you ain’t got so looking as much like a lizard as you can helps.

I got the wrinkles part down pat.

I do good wearing brown and gray tones of plaid around here with a sagebrush colored camo vest and all is good.

Pulls the wool over their eyes sometimes. 🙄
