Never seen a target like that before. That’s cool,what’s it made of?
It is some kind of high density foam sheets, maybe 5mm thick each. I’ll get a closeup pic:
This is a brand new one.
Oh thats a good idea! Friend of mine and i got a big foam target that is basically one big foam block, but this might be easier to fix after a long time of usage!
How much pounds are those bows?
Yep, those targets works very well. The bow is maxed out at 42#
Fuck me haha. And here i am shaking with my 30 pounder haha
I dont use a compound bow thoughI used to shoot a 65#, but at my age it is starting to mess up my shoulders and I struggle to draw back properly more than 30 arrows or so. The 42 is a joy to shoot, I can shoot all day!
(Nice bow, too, btw)
do we have an archey sub? because we need an archery sub. thats a lit bow btw dude.
I don’t know how to link subs, but there are two, one on lemmy.world and one on lemmy.ml
They need more posts though.
Think I figured it out: https://lemmy.world/c/archery
thank you! thats great! i subscribed.
Gasp. I second this!
I hope the link works!
Woot! Ty!
Eyyyy! We have the same bow! 💪🔥
It’s a beauty, isn’t it? What poundage do you shoot?
43! :D I actually started on a Bear bow (a friend’s hand-me-down cause we’re both lefties) with 7 lbs a year ago and worked my way up. It’s been such a game changer upgrading to an Altus with a single pin sight!
Single pin sight is the next thing I’m upgrading to! Mine is 42#
Oh dude! It’s a game changer! I used to squint and hope that somewhere “between line three and four” was 45 yards. Single pin really makes shots so much more consistent once you’re calibrated.
Oh, and that red is a beaut! Nice bow!
All good, I just had never thought of that, it’s cool!
Works very well, stops 70# arrows at 10m no problem. Lasts very well too, and easy to repair after the center is shot out.
