PowWow / Re: What weight point?
Last post by Phil Magistro - Today at 11:13:17 AMWhat you've settled on is about what I use. I'm shooting a 38# ASL not cut to center. Big Jim's 700 cut 28 3/4" with a 145 gr point work better than any other combination I've shot.

The Bowyer's Bench / Re: Heatbox temp and duration?
Last post by mmattockx - Today at 11:13:05 AMQuote from: Kirkll on November 09, 2025, 09:53:10 PMYour theory is good, but I'm uncertain how the power supply will react with a closed circuit for long periods of time.They are designed for that sort of service. I have a battery charger I use for my radio controlled aircraft batteries. It has a mode specifically for powering a hot wire, for cutting foam. It will run that mode non-stop forever as long as you don't exceed its power ratings and overheat it. The power supplies should be the same thing.
Doing some more reading, it appears they act as I say above.

They will power a load indefinitely as long as you stay within their power rating limits. Since they are DC output a resistive load is no issue.

PowWow / Re: What weight point?
Last post by D. Prewett - Today at 10:52:56 AMI would probably start out with a .600 spine shaft and around 150gn of point weight. You stall have shaft length and point weight to play with. I can usually get a pretty stiff arrow to tune well from an ilf rig vs a standard longbow.

PowWow / Re: Glove
Last post by trad_bowhunter1965 - Today at 10:44:15 AMQuote from: Roger Norris on Today at 08:20:26 AMI have used a Bateman Cordovan tab for 15+ years. I probably have 20 of them, I am paranoid that they will become unavailable.DITTO just like Roger I really want to use a glove I've bought and sold trade a bunch just can't get a good release,
I truly WANT to use a glove for hunting, but I have always struggled with my release using a glove. I did have success wearing a golf glove. For me, feeling the string is way better than thick padding.
