I took it to Village Sports in Butler this morning and got TJ to set it up. First shot it was shooting bullet holes on paper tuning. I had a bunch of other stuff to do today so I didn't get to shoot it to set the sights until this afternoon. After a few shots at 20 yards to get the sights set I moved back to 30 yards to fine tune them a little more. Maybe I'll get a chance tomorrow to make sure my sight tape is good out to 50 yards. I think I'm good at 30 yards though. Team Rack Addicts 2016 Aldeer Deer Champions

I've been experimenting with adding weight to my stabilizers and adjusting the tension on my back tension release. I tried several different releases but I seem to do the best with the Carter Attraction. I ended up shooting two nocks off at 50 yards. This is the last group that I shot at 50 yards. The far left arrow hit one of the others that's why it's kicked in the target at that odd angle. I think I'm gonna like this bow once I get use to it. Team Rack Addicts 2016 Aldeer Deer Champions
