Greetings, all.  I've been gone a few years.  I picked up a wheelie bow a couple years ago and am now getting rid of it.  Darned things just aren't as interesting to me.

Almost a year ago, I injured my arm/shoulder and am slowly working my way back into shooting again.  For the most part, shooting left handed is okay.  Right-handed, just depends on the day.  I'm mostly a right-handed shooter but occasionally shoot left handed just to even out the muscle tension in my neck.  At the moment, I'm mostly shooting left handed and may need to hunt left handed this coming turkey season, depending on what the Doc says.  It's going to take some practice, for sure.  I'm a decent shot right handed -- used to place or come very close in local comps 5+ years ago.  But I'm nowhere close to that left-handed.

When shooting left handed, with careful attention being paid to the arrow being under my eye and pointing straight toward the bullseye, I consistently shoot left.  This is the case regardless of arrow spine as I've tried several and have the same result.  I've not yet tried bareshaft...  But with fletched arrows, I have to intentionally get the rear of the arrow slightly off to the left (arrow pointing right) to get it to land straight.

What's your best guess?  Is this a form issue (plucking)?  Is this an eye issue with me shooting off my non-dominant eye (I don't really have one the way most people describe)?  Is it something that can be solved by building out the strike plate or would that risk changing the actual dynamic spine of the arrow & mess things up once I put broadheads on?

I welcome your thoughts.

Never thought of fishing braid and didnt think i could split artificial sinew so all good info, thank you.

Quote from: Tajue17 on Today at 09:19:00 AMI just dont know,,,,, for mostly re-sewing leather items like sheaths and bow quivers with just a heavy threaded needle.... 50/75/100#  im not sure the thickness's so which one should i buy.

I use the 100# and if it's to wide I just spilt it in half it's easy to do.

I've used 20lb test spider wire fishing line for leather repairs with no issues. Having said that, I have artificial sinew, which looks more gooder, but no clue what weight.  I think it might be a question of appearance, in terms of the width of the sinew, and getting it through a needle and leather vs the weight rating?

Well I went down the rabbit hole yesterday on quivers and nearly ordered another Selway. Selway is good product for sure, but dang those Eagles Flight are good looking and light. I read in another thread, they bumped into Karen from EFA at a shoot.  She said they make quivers for people who don't like a quiver on their bows. Perfect enough for me!  Ordered the Navajo in Osage and brown, 4 arrow jumbo head and the wing setback option. Can't wait to get it!

This subject has come up here a bazillion times. Here is THE answer...

If you have to have a single bevel to kill an animal, you have other major serious problems.

Welcome!!! 

Welcome aboard sir!

So this thread is perfect timing for me. I'm getting ready to call and order the Full Shot.  Anyone have experience with that style full glove?  Feedback?
