    Australia

    G-day Mates and Sheila's Not signed in in here in over 18 months due to emigrating. Unfortunately due to the hot sunny weather I have not managed to get shooting as of yet as there is far too much other fun stuff to be doing on our days off. I thought I would just sign in and show you some of...

    Shipping a bow overseas.

    Well we took the final plunge last night and paid for our flights to Australia. WOOHOO! 6th August is D Day! The only problem is the pitiful baggage allowance they are giving us for a long haul flight for a 12-24 month initial stay. 20kg each. Initially I was thinking of taking the bow on...

    Oops.

    Oops. I think the pic says it all! When my cousin in law came round for a pizza and I had my bow in the garden he decided to pick it up and draw a 59lb compound. I has popped to the loo and for some reason he had a moment of madness that cost him more than a pizza to fix. The string ripped...

    Taking a bow to Australia

    Has anyone taken a bow from the UK to Australia? Are there any weird by laws that I need to read up on. I know in Europe Archery gear is classed as sporting equipment but going further afield I just need to check before. It will just be a Compound Bow to start with, the rest of the bows will...

    Top end arrows

    So are pro tours the only real contender? Has anyone tried carbon ones or the new pro field arrows as a comparison at a cheaper price. I have always shot with Easton arrows and have had good success with my navigators. But after 4 years I think I need to retire them (all 12) and upgrade. But...

    Changes to stabilisation

    Last night I decided to have a play around session with some other club members bow accessories on my bow. The decision to do this came from me not buying a new compound this year and decided to spend some cash on pimping it up. So far this season and last season I have been shooting high 580...

    Is there an easy way of removing arrow wraps? My wraps are looking worn and have ripped where the fletchings have passed through the boss. I have bought replacement wraps and its time to refletch. After spending 15 minutes trying to pick off one of the wraps in about 100 tiny bits I gave up...
