Tell us about your bow/setup

Postby Dutch Dog » Tue Aug 02, 2005 10:36 pm

Lets hear what everyone is shooting. Bow, arrows, broadheads, rest etc. We don't need to turn this into a bragging thread, so FPS is optional.

04 Mathews LX Camo Easton 2213's (unibushings) with Thunderhead 85's. pulling 70 lbs or so. 70 lb limbs maxed out and backed off 1/4 turn...not sure of exact weight. Golden premier rest. and I have no clue as to the speed of the bow. 80% letoff.
It's better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it.

Mathews VX Pro, so old, I can't remember the year model, 80% letoff, TM Hunter & Freestyle type sight. Poundage @ about 70. 360 ACC's w/ 125 gr. thunderheads, 4" feathers. Can't be shooting more than about 270 or so... Just fast enough to keep them fixed blade heads flying straight. :wink: Put some meat on the table in its day!!!
