      Awesome stuff and great customer service. All in all sounds like a pretty good day.

        Thanks for the reply Dr Ashby. So far my personal results have been far from encouraging.
        First off I tried shooting off the shelf with my longbow and center shot recurve. When that didn’t work out I tried shooting off an elevated rest that I installed on my recurve. I have tried adjusting the nocking point, multiple shaft selections, every point wieght imaginable, building out the shelf, and nothing seems to work. It seems when I use the release that my arrows keep bouncing off whatever rest I’m shooting them off of. Why this is, I don’t know.
        Yesterday I went to the local archery shop and decided to try out a compound with a drop away rest and was getting great arrow flight. I don’t want to loose the simplicity and feel of a trad bow, but I dont want to quit bow hunting even more.

            Thanks for the info Duncan.
            Unfortunately a new glove wouldn’t help as my fingers can’t take more than a few pounds of pressure. I was only shooting a 43# bow this season but it turns out that even that was too heavy.

                Nope the Samick has no plunger hole.

                  I use a laminate wood longbow with a very shallow shelf, but I havea backup recurve (Samick Volcano) which might be better suited?

                    Thanks for the pic two4hooking. But after a bit of thought I decided to make em into my newest set of rattling antlers. Can’t eat em after all so I might as well find some use for em. Might try a mount with my first Whitetail though.

                      That is gorgeous country, I bet its just full of game. And as far as the miss goes, are you sure you wanted that Elk? I’ll bet you intentionally missed with the intention of educationing said Elk. That way he wouldn’t fall for a similar ruse by other hunters. At least thats what I would say, and believe me I have said it before! 😉

                        Sounds like a sweet rig! Unfortunately the wife reminded me that its a bit out of our current budget. Maybe for Christmas? 🙄

                              Try doing that with a compound/crossbow/long gun!

                                  Sorry about my earlier post Mike, it wasn’t very specific.
                                  What I am looking for is a single bevel head that can be made into (adapters) or comes in a 150 to 160ish grain wieght. I may tinker with the rest of Dr Ashby’s specs at a later date, but for now I am only interested in the bevel.
