    yes this is a never ending learning curve. i don't know all the answers but i look for them and sometimes i find interesting things about myself when shooting. only way to learn is put yourself in situations and see how you respond. some good some bad you just never know. chasin perfection is a burden but necessary. catch you later and good luck. conditioning is another thing still workin on. got bored this weekend and me and my friend tom built us a hooter shooter. some other shooter built one for about $160.00 bucks and thats about what we paid for ours. cool tool to go with our draw board! can never know enough.

    forgot to mention you might want to change your weight setup with the higher lbs. everybody is different some like more some less it changes your posture and balance a little and forces your body to correct form or bad form. you don't really settle in you have a aggressive setup and your attitude will be business only attitude when shooting this type of setup.just learned this setup about a year ago and always learning something in archery. still workin on the head game, mental stuff. have a great day and talk soon.

    interesting stuff. don't reccomend for hunting. archery is a evolution, what worked 3 months ago may not work as well today. so always evolving. works well in wind because your pretty solid or firmer on your setup. but shootin in wind is interesting no matter what. have a great day and talk soon.

    one thing i have learned is it demands proper form. if you slack off or get lazy you pay. very aggressive setup. some of the guys are shooting around 30lbs holding weight. DEMANDS GOOD FORM!

    hello angelra. shooting with about 24lbs holding weight. backtension shooting. I'm a bigger guy and seems the higher the holding weight the better things get. i haven't truely found my sweet spot yet but experimenting. used to shoot around 17lbs and shot well. some of the guys i shoot with shoot the higher weights and they all out shoot me. so if i can't beat them join them or atleast give it a try. jeremy terhune shot 86x out of 90x at vegas and my other guy fran won bowhunter freestyle class in vegas. we have several other shooter we shoot with that are in top 25 in pro class at vegas in our little circle of archers. they cut me no slack and thats the way it should be. they call be bowreck. thanks for your time and you have a great day. archery is a evolution of yourself, how far do you want to evolve is the question?

    hello angelra. see you are a knowledgeable in archery. read some of your comments about a shooter looking for a new target bow, liked comments. what have you done with a specialist. currently shooting this bow and wondering if you have shot and liked or dis liked. just getting it figured out but took a little work to get it to do what i want. wanted the higher holding weight tuning and learning this as we speak. thanks and hope to hear from you.
