McPhersen Monster 7.0 and Axis infused arrows. Unsure on broadhead to be used currently. I have the NAP killzones from last year that are similar to Rage. However, I have killed more with the WASP Stingers and old 3 blade Thunderheads.

Began practicing daily (workdays) again in mid April.

Martin Mamba, recurve. And a new longbow I'm still dialing in.
Old school, Brah.

I've killed more with WASP Jackhammers than any other. Was 13-13 shot/kill at one point over the span of a few seasons. Not sure why I quit them really..

What happens if a bow doesn't match your draw length etc?

Can you get that changed or you have to find a bow that fits you?

Very bad things.

They all can be changed. Some easier than others. Mathews and maybe some others require a new cam. Some have modules that come with the bow.

It's painful to shoot indeed. I remember when I bought it I told the guy I wanted the fastest bow made. He said "I have this one, but...

I cut him off right there and said "I'll take it"

You have to just about tie it to yourself to keep it in your hand. All the bad things aside, mine has killed a gigantic pile of deer. I keep saying I'm going to break down and buy a new bow, but this one just keeps killing. Every year when I pull it out I wish it to be warped. Damn thing just shoots straight time after time.

I did the same thing.


You really should shoot one of the long riser/short limb bows. Going from Ultra-max to the LX was one of the best things I've done in archery. Just a joy to shoot.

I shoot the new ones every year. They are 20x nicer than mine. I always try to talk myself into it, but can't justify the money until mine breaks. Maybe this will be the year
