    Mathews z extreme 60lb

    Shot lots of goats/bunnies/turkeys with it but still chasing the first deer. Fired arrows over and under them though so can't be too far away. .....

    Thanks man. She shoots like a dream; the draw cycle ramps up really hard and took a little getting used to, but the back wall is rock solid, and it's super light.
    Pretty happy with it.
    I wanna get new limb dampers and get rid of the little red bits, and get the red off the arrow shafts.

    Bowtech Reign 6 set at 65lbs, I recently switched arrows to Gold Tip Hunter XT's totalling about 510grs. That's about my best effort to date shooting it...

    How are the new strings going? I was going to get some new strings from AA this summer...

    Your Bowtech looks nice man.
    Yeah the new strings are great. It came with red strings originally which looked hideous.
    What distance are you shooting at in the photo?

    That's at 40 yards (36m) which is about as far as I have shot out to. I need to get the sight tape only my sight sorted when I have time.

    How do you find the overall weight with the carbon riser?

    When I've got the quiver full of arrows on the Reign it feels pretty heavy - apparently a heavier bow holds on target steadier(?) but I've never tried anything else to be able to tell

    That's pretty impressive at that distance, imo. I can get max 15 meters across my front yard at home and my groupings are about the same as yours at 36, haha.
    My carbon air is super light. I'm new to archery and don't have much to go off of, but the people at Advanced Archery also commented on how light it is, so I'll take that as confirmation.
    Couldn't say if a heavy bow holds steadier, but it certainly reduces fatigue.
    My first bow is that EK Archery Research piece of junk shown in the first photo, that thing weighs a ton by comparison. But, it was cheap, and it got me back into archery (I had a bow about 15 years ago).

    Got this a couple of weeks ago and am just getting to grips with it. Really enjoying it but I think game animals are pretty safe from me at the moment.
    I have shot it out to 30 yards but am still playing with the sights for different distances. I am sitting inside today watching the rain so am restricted to the 10 yards I can shoot inside. Haven't damaged anything yet...

    FFS. Can't seem to get this photo the right way up!
    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.

    Best group today at 43 yards. I could usually get at least two arrows close together but then had some pretty wild ones too.

    Bit of sight adjustment to do but happy with progress so far.
