This year I got asked by are real good long time friend of mine to be on his team. I bought PSE Spyder a few years to go to mess around with. To see if I would like to try bow hunting. At first, I didn't shoot it enough to real make a good decision on it. Then this past year, I tried to get into firing it more, I was all over the target and not happy with they way I was shooting, didn't like the arrow rest, tried a whisker bisquit, couldn't quite get a group I like, went back to the arrow rest.
So, anyways, I got a membership to the Archery club, practiced once and got the bow sighted, changed draw length. Well, lets just say, my first night went to hell...my arrow rest started shredding the Fletches off the arrow making arrow flight pretty bad. We shoot at 20 targets, 2 arrows, I had 8 arrows in my case, I went down to one arrow the last 4 targets, scored 90 points out of possible 400. One arrow went off bow so bad, it hit the framing of one target and broke in half.
Things I found out, my draw length is way too short for one thing, and we have it set a max draw length on the bow, so I have both, second, I put the whisker biscuit back one, went up to shoot it the next night, whoa la...hit target just fine, even kill zone on some targets, piece of shit arrow rest I had on.
So this
Now I just need to get about 4 arrows re fletched and I'm ready for this thurday night again.
I will be getting a new bow for sure, looking at the Diamond infinity edge pro. Like the variety of draw weight and draw length adjustments it has to offer, plus found a package deal for 339.00
I'm a little weaklin pulling 48 lbs...ha ha
Wish me luck, I will post my results from thursday....
