2016 Season Bow Setups
With the Fall 2016 season fast approaching, the most common questions I receive are in regards to my equipment. This will break down each of my 3 bows that I use, including arrows, sights, poundage, etc. Please keep in mind that if you've read previous blogs, I may have had different combinations on these setups; this is CURRENT and what I plan to use for my 2016 season. If I didn't address something, please comment below and I will update this article accordingly.
