Bow hunting

[Lilred500]

Who all here bow hunts? What is your go to set up and some details on it? Mines a 2018 Matthews triax in sitka subalpine cam 70lbs draw weight 29” draw weight still have to set it up the way I want but couldn’t pass up such an amazing deal at my local pawn shop for basically a brand new bow.

Post a pic of your rig!!!!

Triax here as well, Montana Black gold sight 6 pin slider, Mathews QD quiver, Trophy taker Drop away. I have taken quite a few animals with it, with the last one being a mule deer buck on New Years Eve. My P1k5 opened up so much more land to hunt it is crazy. I used to beat my pickup to hell trying to get into some places. Now I can drive 20 minutes from home, jump in my Pioneer and cruise 40 miles on Dirt roads and be away from all the hunting pressure that public land creates. Bowhunting is my #1 hobby and my P1K5 was bought to do exactly as it has, put more animals in the freezer.

I’ve bow hunted since I was 12. I typically shoot Bear, have had a few Mathews ,Dimond and a few Jennings back in the day. My first bow kill as a kid was with a Jennings unistar plus lol. I have a center point cross bow I like to hunt with as well.

Hoyt for me, but they are all really nice.
I have an older Hoyt Stalker and a Ravin R10.
The best type of hunt to my way of thinking.

I started bowhunting with a recurve back in '74,and stopped with a Martin compound bow the year Daddy died in '88. 3 yrs ago I started back with this Mission Sub One Crossbow. Not at the point of being consumed with it, since it is usually just a few days of hunting in MO before gun season starts. This thing is super quiet and deadly accurate.

My centerpoint CP400 uses the same limbs as your Ravin. I like it a lot.

Good to see the Genesis bows hanging as well.
To bad you will not be joining us in Portage this Saturday, but there will be others.

Halon 32-6. I am a very long draw. Triax didnt go long enough for me.

Yup.. Hoyt here, I’m not a new bow every year kinda guy. I’m still running a Rampage XT and I love it!

Also have a crossbow, but only use it when my shoulder is acting up.

Bowtech Allegiance, bought back in 2006. Probably the best bow made... as far as I'll ever know.

Started with a recurve 37 yrs ago and then bought a Mountaineer dual cam bow. From there I went to a high country bow the a Jennings single cam now an older Matthews switchback xt. Too cheap to buy another. Darn things are more expensive than a good rifle.

I'd be ashamed to talk much about my 24 + year old PSE.
I had a bow shop tune it up in 2008 and they bit their tongue...
I did try a new PSE then, super nice but wow what they cost... haven't bow hunted since.

Yeah they cost a pretty penny no matter what you get but $300 to $400 will get you in the door pretty easy with a decent one.

My last bow was a switchback xt I bought used.
