As promissed here is the update...
Well, I got the new cam and mod in the mail in a very timely manner. They also sent a new string and cable. So I went down to my local bowshop called the Backwoodsman just to shoot the breeze and to replace everything. I must admit it wasn't too bad but it did take some work. I was not able to use the mod that they sent me because it just didn't fit. So

It is often said that 10% of the people take 90% of the game. While I don't know if that statistic is correct, I do know that some hunters are consistently successful. So it leads us to the question, what are they doing differently than the rest of us? Do they go to church more often? Did they sell there soul to the devil? What do they have in common that leads them to be more successful

Traditionally, I have always shot some of the longer ATA Hoyts. Not because I have been sponsored or any of that stuff but because I know they make solid bows. I also think

...Back to the Quest 33.
I took some accurate measurements of my "peep to sight apeture" and "peep to arrow shaft" which is needed to estimate speed in Archery's Advantage (as well as setup sight tapes).

Pimpin My Ride(s) - Part 2Posted by Aneal Roney in setting up a new bow, Katera, Hoyt |

As I mentioned in my last entry, I was very happy with my initial setup of my Quest 33 bow and Sure-Loc Max ST sight. Now I was moving on to setting up my other bow - a Hoyt Katera.
I went down to visit my good buddy (and Archery Guru) Matt Hogue at my local Sportsman's Warehouse in Littleton, CO. We got to work completing the following tasks:

I had a birthday party scheduled on Saturday for both of my daughters (Their b-days are on April 27 and April 28 - I guess I pretty much rut about the same time each year ;-) ) . The outdoor picnic plans got yanked do to high wind and eventually snow on Saturday. Weather is always a little tricky in April and
