Choosing a Sight to Fit Your Needs

Posted By: Rudy Hassalll  //  Category: Archery

This is a very good article from the BowCast site, that shows you some trials and tribulations with picking the right sight “for you.”


Most sights today offer the necessary items that will cater to just about every hunter out there. Those items that Wayahsti is talking about are: a level bubble, third axis adjustability, fiber optic pins, and a round pin guard.

Don’t be Cam Shy!

The Elite Archery line is an incredible bow line that most archers are unaware of as they do not mass advertise; they only do it by word of mouth. I have my sights on an older Aigil or a new GT500 for next season.

This was a great interview, with one of the best bow engineers in the world. Some of you may know who Kevin is and some of you may not. But, after listening to this podcast, you will know he definitely knows what he is doing.


Do you know the how and why a cam works on your bow? Do different draw lengths mean different string lengths? What does a hot rod engine have to do with a compound bow cam? Anthony and Aneal are joined by Kevin Strother, who is a bow designer and consultant to Elite Archery. Kevin shares his over 25 years of experience designing bows and cams to answer some very common questions about how our bows really work for us (and sometimes against us!). He also reviews the 2009 Elite Archery lineup and covers the differences in each bow and what went into each individual design.

Monsen Mountain Mashers

Posted By: Rudy Hassalll  //  Category: Recipe

 

I found this useful little recipe that I found on BowCast. They are a great little pick me up when you need one on the mountain. They don’t require any special storage.  It doesn’t matter if they get mashed.  They are not that bad for you and best of all they taste great and are less filling…Wait, isn’t that a beer?  

 

But it is approximately:

  • 3 cups powdered milk
  • 1/2 cup ground flax seed
  • 1/2 cup ground wheat germ
  • 1 cup old fashioned oats
  • 1-1 1/2 cups peanut butter
  • 1-1 1/2 cups honey
