Title: Hey Big Jim
Post by: CRM_95 on May 12, 2016, 03:45:00 PM
Thanks so much for helping me out with the arrows, and giving me the advice. The Gold Tip blems came today. I put the 200 grain heads on...and the difference between how these arrows fly and my old arrows is night and day!! Took me a few shots to get dialed in with them, but in the last hour I'm shooting better than I have since I got my bow in December. Here's a pic of my last group at 20 yards!!

That's some good shooting there CRM.
He fixed me up with some heavy hunters at the Tradfest and boy I was surprised at how well those things fly from a light bow and extra weight up front.

The difference in accuracy from poorly matched arrows and well matched arrows, well as you said... night and day.  

Jim and his crew are great people!

A fine typical rewarding experience to be expected in working with Big Jim.
