    TRU Ball Tru-Ball Chappy Boss.... with a d-loop?

    So I ordered a Tru-Ball Pro Diamond release aid from an online archery shop. They didn't have the item I ordered in stock, so offered to send me the more expensive Chappy Boss for the original price. Bargain I thought. When the release aid came though, I doesn't have the caliper jaw I was...

    TRU Ball Truball Stinger - increasing length

    Hi all, Anyone suffessfully, or knows how to, increase the length of the Truball Stinger release aid? I like the idea of the wrist attached release, however it's about 2cm too short for my giant man hands. I'm already using the large one, and they don't make a larger model. It's attached to...

    Moving from plastic rest with foam pad to magnetic flipper rest

    So on my recurve currently I have a hoyt super pro rest that sits on a foam pad. My button obviously fits through the hole in said rest and everything is as you'd expect (pointy end of the arrow goes in the target). I've just got my hands on the shibuya magnetic flipper rest and so I'm...

    Limbs Need to reduce limb poundage (but how much?)

    Having returned to the sport, I'm struggling to complete a Portsmouth with my 42# limbs (weight at full draw, limbs are marked 34#). I've come to the realisation that I need to get some lighter limbs and build back up or I'm going to keep struggling. The question is, how far to drop it down...

    Back into Archery, Tab advice

    Hi all, Leaping back into the sport (3 years of shooting at a club level followed by a 3 year gap) and I'm looking to try and tackle all the problems I identified the last time I was shooing. Mainly, consistency between shots. When everything goes *right*, the clicker clicks, the fingers...
