jblosser Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 BeeGreenStrings is world champ, or close... I think he was getting out of the game, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beegreenstrings Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 (edited) Ill answer to anything T&K Guns and Archery, ask for Tommy. Tell him Bill Green sent you. He can get'er working pretty good. I was never a big single cam shooter so I cant really help you that much. They are not difficult though, way easier to shoot than a two cam or cam and half or Binary. Thats just one of the reasons so many people shoot a Mathews. I still shoot one of my Hoyts. Sold all the others. Trying to work a deal on a Bowtech Insanity CPXAult, I just seen you are in Revenna. T&K is a little bit of a drive from there. Try Olde English, They are a huge Mathews dealer.Funny thing. The girl I was seeing is in Revenna for XO and IO Military training this week.

blue03636 Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 I own one, haven't had much time to shoot it though. There is a nice 3D place near me that I want to hit up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJC1000rr Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 (edited) With being that close to Youngstown I would call Ken at Baldys Archery. I have went there the past two years and it's worth it IMHO. Just got back my Bowtech Invasion from retune after snapping a nock and having the string come off. He also reworked my brothers Pearson... Which I believe is a Cheaper Mathews bow. He found the lower cam had a small section missing from when my brother had it snap the hoist string getting into his stand. New string/cam/install/tuning only cost $145 with tax. Ken has a lot of good reviews on AT also if you want to to check up on him. Edited August 7, 2012 by SJC1000rr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grapesmuggler27 Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 No, that's cool I see how it is. You live 3 hours from me he is 3 min plus I don't like sloppy seconds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
e-flores Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 I shoot with a Switchback xt I mostly hunt though, it's funny because I was just at old English yesterday and shot a Heli-M and just saw this thread today. Congrats on an awesome bow! I don't know how far you are from Old English but if you're anywhere near I would definitely suggest going there for help.

Gump Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 I shoot a Martin stick bow and fletch my arrows but just play in the yard normally. Prefer instinctual sighting over mechanical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowdog Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 We need to get together sometime and shootDefinitely! I am a member of the Coon Hunters club in Canal, We have 28 stations through the woods with differant style 3D targets set at differant ranges and angles (Bears to Antalope) and then a 20-30-40-50-60 yard standing target range.

Kmanlyst Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 I love bow hunting and just recreational shooting. I have a Bear Archery Grizzly Recurve right handed with a 50lb draw and I use Cabelas Stalker Extreme arrows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnG Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 Recurve man myself. Shot competitively with compound from 94 to about 02 and got bored with it. Picked up a stickbow and never went back. Still have my PSE compound hunting rig but rarely shoot it.Find a good club near you and join. Especially if they have a 3d course that you can shoot on your own. I wouldn't waste my time at a compound 3d shoot. Too many people and too many delays between targets.Good luck and have fun!

flounder Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 Not much to setting up a new mathews. pick out your rest and sight, install them, and start tuning. Im a mathews guy myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redkow97 Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 I have shot a bow in the past, but my experience is limited to 8th grade gym I would like to pick up an inexpensive 50# recurve and just mess around in my yard. My wife's boss is into compound bows, so she offered to find me something. I'm finding her a bike (her boyfriend rides, but his shadow is like 1300cc or something, and she's afraid of it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm finding her a bike (her boyfriend rides, but his shadow is like 1300cc or something, and she's afraid of it)For anyone interested in recurves and longbows, or seeing a few vendors for arrow and hunting supplies, I would highly recommend a trip to Jackson, Ohio over the Labor Day Weekend. The Ohio Society of Traditional Archers (OSTA) holds the end of year State Shoot on this weekend and it's a great time. Plenty of folks selling bows, vendors, free camping, good food, two thirty target 3D courses, and commanderie in a family friendly environment.http://www.tradarchers.org/default.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
