  1. 3D Archery
    I’m getting stationed In Colorado Springs soon and I’m trying to really step up my competition game both indoor and 3d but mainly 3d. I recall at some point reading somewhere in diameter size restrictions of arrows as in 27s are too big and I would need like a 23 or something. I just looked and...

    I am looking for some guidence on finding compound bows efficiencies that compare energy in vs energy out when shooting a bow. This would tell a lot about how much noise and vibration the bow would likely generate. In an ideal world, a bow should convert 100% of its stored energy into the arrow...

    Howdy! I'd like to figure out how to properly calculate the IBO speed of compound bows. Is it different for each brand? Can I use the omni calculator to help me? I'm confused with following the calculation from the omni calculator webpage but when i use their calculator it reflects a real...
  4. 3D Archery
    Hello, all! I am the Assistant Property Manager at Monroe Lake and am responsible for organizing the second leg of the Triple Crown. We have many shooters compliment our shoot each year, and a few who aren't happy about some aspect of the competition. I am seeking feedback from those who...

    I will be shooting the IBO Triple crown shoots this year and wouldn’t mind jumping on an AHC team if anyone is looking for another member. Just PM me. Thanks!

    Currently fifteen and have been shooting for about ten years now and for about five or six years I've been shooting a Mission Craze by Mathews. I am looking for a bow that I can seriously compete with as well as use for hunting. I compete with my grandmother every weekend in our local league and...
  7. Bow Tuning
    Anyone else own one of these nice custom longbows and know approx. brace height and approx. IBO? With the not too recent passing of Mr. Abbott (RIP Feb, 2014) an incredibly talented master Bowyer, I haven’t had success reaching anyone there to find out what the brace height or IBO would be for...

    The specs on my Mathews Jewel bow says IBO is up to 325 FPS with #60 bow @ 29 inches. My Jewel is set to approx. #56 and my draw is 26 inches. Is there a way to calculate approx. IBO with these details without a chrono? Also, the specs on my APA Sidewinder says the IBO is up to 318, but I can’t...
  9. 3D Archery
    Can someone tell me how peer groups are established for the 3 legs of the national triple crown series? I read in the rule books that a peer group "may" be made up of the top 10 scores from a previous competition. Last year I only hit the 3rd leg so didn't have to worry about it. But this...

    IBO Indoor World Qualifier Indoor 3D Money Shoot
  11. 3D Archery
    I'll be hitting the 3rd leg of the IBO Triple Crown this weekend. Unfortunately I won't be able to make it in until late Friday evening. I am thinking about trying to get all 40 targets in on Saturday. Anyone have any experience doing this? 40 shots is nothing physically. But the large...
  12. Traditional Archery
    I live near to Verdugo Hills Archers so was planning on stopping by probably this Friday afternoon or Saturday maybe -- never have shot 3D so I won't be competing but wanted to at least see what the event is like. Wondering if anyone will be there from this forum? Thanks.

  14. General Archery Discussion
    I'm looking for some numbers that people have gotten from their mathews z2 or z3 bows. Basically trying to figure out if they are hitting the adjusted IBO for your specific setup. Draw length, arrow weight, weight on string, and draw weight would be helpful along with what your calculated IBO...
  15. Obsession Bow Discussion
    Please excuse the attention grabbing title (and the sideway's picture)....figured I could post here without getting people's panties in a twist. But if you have a moment or two, feel free to follow my argument. As the k34 is Obsession's best all around bow to date (IMO), once everyone has...
  16. General Archery Discussion
    I am getting a Mathews Heli-M that I will be hunting whitetail with and I'm looking for advice on an arrow that will give me ample knockdown power** but also good speed** (3oofps+). Again I shoot 29" draw length at 70lbs. Any suggestion would be great!! ~MOOSE
  17. General Archery Discussion
    I recently purchased a Bowtech Carbon Icon and found I love it on the comfort setting, but don't like the backwall (or lack there of) on the performance setting. My bow shops chronograph is currently out of service, so I can't clock my speed. I wondered if anyone was tested the difference in the...
