GURU pulls one out from the PAST!  :eek:  
I agree with Owlbait I found Rob to be a bit easygoing at the compton shoot. I don't doubt he can pull a bus bakwards tho. I did forget to ask him why he is called Rob-TATTOO tho,well, maybe next year.If he comes back.  :goldtooth:

It's all about shot placement and keepin it close.  Make sure you have a sharp broadhead.     :knothead:

Make sure you use a single bevel 2 blade and put it right in the boiler room...

Remember that a triceratops has a thick shield right over the vitals and only take broadside shots at under 75 yards   :p

I don't know what you could be thinking, going into the woods with a setup that light. You MIGHT be OK on squirrels or field mice, but for heaven's sake don't go after anything that might fight back. And even them dang squirrels have a healthy set of teeth, bent on mayhem if angered.

You won't have to worry about me dry-firing it.

I went downstairs to my bow rack and put the Winnie-the-Pooh stickers back on my punie curves. (But I do enjoy wiping dirt and lung blood off my broadheads in the same swipe.)

Do you shoot left hand grain or right hand grain arrows?  Shooting left hand grain arrows with right hand feathers (or vise versa) could be bad. Rob, can't you foot the arrows or do something to get the weight up to 1000 grains?

I've given this a lot more thought....

And I wouldn't shoot anything with that set up bigger than the TX Turd Roller.

Rob,

How did that D10 strech on you? On my 82# er the D10 stretched almost 3/4" over two days. Seemed to have stopped now but I'm not happy with number of twists in string. Going to have some 8125 strings made up - I had stretching problems on my 75#er until I switched to 8125 then very little stretch. D10 seems fine on light bows.

Only with a single bevel with matching the feathers with a 3 to 1 ratio would I attempt to shoot a deer with it.

I don't do impressions.
