Bull nettle is good to eat. Easy to kill too.

Welcome. I would suggest buying online. Go to a proshop and get your measurements and shoot a few bows. Then look online. You can save $$$$ off retail. If you need help finding something let me know. I bought my reezen online

I was told ordering online would void the warranty does anyone know if this is true?

[TX_bowhunter37]

Not sure about that seems that it would be false

next time your at granger let me know where ur at? I work out here now but am not the warden, just a park ranger .....hogs are destroying the corn on the Circleville side..... I just drive around the lake wishing I was in the boat or in a tree stand lol, but not so much the tree stand because it's too hot....in the boat so I can fall in the lake to cool off....

Thats awesome man congrats on the job! Seems like it would be a pretty cool deal. Sure I wi ll be seeing plenty of you out there this year.

Most bows allow a one time warranty transfer. But....don't quote me mathews and bowtech do not transfer. I'm gonna research that. I don't recall seeing anything in the paper work I got with my chill.

I am picking up a Browning Illusion from another TBH member today. Going to start cheap and upgrade later. After all, I haven't shot a compound in 16 years.

Browning makes a quality bow at a real good price. My brother in law has had his for a loooong time and can shoot lights out.

Well met the guy out at Cabelas and made the purchase. Bow looked pretty good overall. Took it in to get arrows, etc. and decided to change some things out. Sight was missing a pin (limiting me to 40 yrd) and not that bright, so I decided to swap it out for a Spot-Hogg Right On. Expensive upgrade, but can put it on a new bow if/when I get one. The quiver was crap, so I bought a new TruGlo loc-dwn. Has an older Ripcord rest which I decided to keep. Will replace with a Code Red or QAD Utra-Rest HDX when the time comes. So overall I am pretty happy. Just need to practice now.

One thing I don't like about it, is that the grip is really irritating my holding hand thumb knuckle and that the first time I shot it, I raked my shooting arm all the way down.

have you tried holding the bow where your knuckles are at a angle or maybe bend your elbow a little bit this will help you not hit your arm

The hitting the arm is most often times form or the bow draw length is to long. I have a membership at hillcountrybownunters. We can go shoot sometime just let me know when.

The problem is the underside of the shelf is not smooth and I have protruding knuckles. I think a file or some camo moleskin should solve it. As for the arm thing. I have Popeye forearms, but pushing the elbow out works.

It actually feels short. Was set to 28 and my wingspan measurement / 2.5 is 29.7. I would enjoy shooting with a master like yourself. ;-) I will schedule time with you soon.
