Re: Sambar Cull

I wouldn't say that just because you don't eat what you kill/harvest means that you need help. We hunt because we enjoy it and get satisfaction from overcoming the challenge. But, as hunters we are also serving a role as a tool for wildlife management that provides an inexpensive and effective metho...

I don't care what the parts of the bow are made of or what the arrow is made of. To me the biggest thing that char...

A medium wrist is what you see in most recurves. Your wrist is at an approximately 45 degree angle to the riser. A high wrist is where your...

Try a foam pad

One of the more successful strategies I have found for keeping broadhead tipped arrows quiet and sharp is to put about an inch of foam, like you find in bow quiver hoods, in the bottom of the quiver. When you put the arrows in just push a bit and stick them into the foam. This keeps them from rattli...
