Had a buddy put a right helical on my new Gold tip Expedition 5575's and man I have them things dialed out to 60yds. Thought I was gonna have to move sight a bit but just tweaked nocks a bit and BAM!!! They are right on. Concentrate on one arrow at a time and REMEBER HAVE FUN!!!

Thanks bjankowski do ya like to shoot 3d? Cowtown Bowmans Club is having a club shoot Mar. 23rd this Sat. at around 9:00 am I'll be there with my buddy shooting the Hunter class. If your not familiar with format its first 15 targets known distances last 15 unnown distances. Come on out if ya get a chance .

Just a heads up on shooting a helical fletch, after 30 yards or so they will drop faster then a non-helical cause the additional spin makes arrow loose more velocity.

Shoot animals 25 yards and under and don't worry about it  I'm currently shooting 5" feathers with RH out of my Mathews xTreme Tactical and it is a tack driver and no problem killing animals.

I know Joe Crawford I think he's still the range capt.he and I worked a few Bowtech shows together when I was shooting for Team Bowtech. I don't get too exceited about shooting in Texas, unless it's a charity event, there's no money to speak of here. Better money shoots are up north or overseas.
