    New Limbs SF Ultimate Pro

    Iv'e been struggling of late with my 990TX 36lb limbs with 42-3lbs otf. So i have taken the plunge and gone down in poundage and up in length at the same time. The thing is i've been shooting 2312' X7s with 200gr point and although they dont tune with the bare shaft they go well but will they...

    Stabiliser Swap or sell?

    I have a set of X10 Stabilisers, 5" extender, 2 x 12" side rods and a 34" long rod. Would swap (or sell) for HMC+, Win Win or similar, only difference being i want a 30" long rod. Rather than just change long rods i'd rather change the whole setup as i dont want to mix. PM me :target:

    Brady Ellison

    How the hell did he get so good? At age 20 and only starting recurve 2 years ago, ( he used to shoot on the DS) Ranked now 10 in the world and regularly shooting 1300+ Fitas. My question is, is there a natural talent to the art of being this good or are they just super humans?

    Painful Elbow

    I am suffering a painful elbow and i dont know if it's 'Tennis elbow' or not but assume it may be. It does'nt hurt when i shoot but it does when i dont. I've been told if it is TE that i should not shoot anymore until it's mended and they say this could take upto a year:worried: Anyone suffered...

    Length of Short Rods?

    Is there a rule of thumb as far as the optimum length of short rods go? Up till now i have shot with a 5" extender, 30" long rod and 10" short rods. I have seen on a certain shop website where they sell complete sets and where the 30" long rod is combined with a 5" extender they have 12"...

    What's the benefit of 70" over 68"

    At present i shoot a 25" riser and medium limbs making a 68" bow. Arrows are just over 30 1/2" I've always felt i was on the cusp of a 70 incher but never had one, lately i have felt my fingers pinching and wondered if i should give 70" a go. So what's the benefits and downsides to going...

    UK.....Rain and Club Day Practice

    The weather in the UK is generally crap and this week has been no exception. So i have not shot this week because of rain. This means a week without shooting which is not good but as i do it for pleasure i'm not into standing out getting wet on a practice day. Hopefully tomorrow will be better...

    Scopes on the Shooting line?

    Why is it a lot of people these days insist on putting their scopes on the shooting line, this seems to be a trend nowadays? Even worse with the 10 second lead in time to set up and take the scopes on and off the line. When i was shooting early to mid 90's most people (including Steve Hallard)...

    How to determine the correct drawlength?

    I've shot with many different d/l's within an inch difference and have had as good shooting with most of them. I have never had total confidence which is the correct or optimum one. Is there any scientific method to determine the precise length? (I'm thinking not but you never know)

    Fletched and Bare shaft tuning

    At what distance can we realistically expect a bare shaft to group with the fletched arrow? I note on another thread that Dave can group them at 70mts. I can get them touching at 20 yards but have not tried a longer distance, so should i be trying longer?

    SF Sight Bar Not Inline with string!

    Found out shooting for the first time outdoors with the sight that i was moving the windage pin at varying distances (No wind). On checking with a piece of card attached to the sight bar i find that it is out by about 1/16" and there is no adjustment possible, so i drilled out a bigger hole in...

    Beiter Pin Nocks

    I have Beiter pin nocks on my X10 and some are quite loose fitting and move around. As you're not meant to glue these on is it OK to put a dob of glue to secure them as it'll be a pain in the harris if i have to keep checking and moving them?

    Stringers

    Who uses them? When i used to shoot in the 90's i never used a stringer, now having bought a nice new bow the instructions say NEVER string the bow WITHOUT a stringer, so i started to use one. However a few months later i've gone back to my old ways. I understand they are worried you can...
