Hello - New Member!

Hello!

Just thought i'd introduce myself, I have recently returned to shooting after a couple of years absense, I shoot compound at a club near Chichester in West Sussex, heres my setup:

Browning Rage twin cam, set to 60lbs peak and a 30" draw length
Easton Cobalt arrows, big fat linecutters with bi-vane fletchings
Quicktune 1000 rest locked out to work like a solid rest
Arten Midas sight, hopefully with a scope fitted soon...
41" Beiter longrod, with some tuners removed, and added end weight
14" carbon twin rods set at 45ºx5º (flat)
Solid D loop and TRU-Ball Stinger release

I have been shooting with this setup for about 2 weeks (except for the midas sight) and my scores are between first class and bowman depending on how i'm feeling that day. I'm hoping to improve on that now i have a sight that doesn't adjust its own windage everytime i shoot

So how does my setup rate in the outside world? It seems to work for me, mostly developed from personal trial and error.

Glad to be part of the forum

Hello...

The compound stuff means nothing to me (no offence), as i'm not a Compound shooter... It sounds impressive though

Welcome to the party

If you can get your arrows to the boss with all fletches attached, you're a better compounder than I...
