Yea.....not to many come in under weight, in fact, neither do I......    :biglaugh:

I made up some new arrows for my JD Berry MorningStar. 50-55 sure wood hemlocks. 27.5" 160 up front. Finished weight is 530 grains.





Also bought a doz economy western larch from kootenai river archery.
Same specs but weigh in at 675 grains. I am NOT use to arrows this heavy, but they sure Rock a target
First couple shots at 15. All seemed well enough. THEN went back to 25 and dropped them in the dirt LOL.

I'll see what I decide on. The heavies are good for gap shooting but I don't think I can jump back and forth.

What is this sorcery? My posts are gone and the threads back to page 2?
Edit: my bad. I guess I made my post a new thread by mistake. Mea culpa.

Got my new to me Hill T/D today. I can't do pics but this thing is really nice. I wasn't sure I was going to like the clear glass and natural bamboo but it looks pretty good. I know this for sure.......it sends 50-55 cedars down range like rockets. 45#@28" and I'm pulling 29"....it's fast!!

Hows the take down system? I'm looking at getting a T/D next but I've always been a one-piece guy - less to go wrong. But once you get into the 68" bow realm having a T/D becomes a lot more helpful. Congrats on the new bow!

Hill takedowns are completely bulletproof. You can't tell it is a takedown by looking at it, and it adds a tad bit of weight to the handle. This is my Cheetah t/d, and it looks just like a one piece.

Its a sleeve design I imagine?

Yes, it is a sleeve. Works great.

It's the first sleeve I have had.....seems solid and goes together and pulls apart easy. It does add some mass to the riser.

Took the MorningStar out today.  No movement from the critters, so I decided to do some stumping. Today the MorningStar and I were just on fire, seemed like the arrows had a destiny to hit their mark.

Very nice Brian. Every time I see a reverse handle ASL I wonder if some passer-bys evere look at it and think you have strung your bow backwards. Hah. Looks like a good stumpin session!

Hoping to be able to actually kill something soon, the public land within reason for me to make with my family life is not the greatest, until then I'll keep hunting it and killing its stumps lol

Thanks.
