Fred,
If it's reflex is too much and your out of options you might be able to cut it and v-splice deflex that way, if there's no other options left.
Everyone seems to be on top of things, with no major dilemmas. That's certainly nice to return to.
I had a 3D fun shoot today. I don't have much progress to report having spent my recent free time making the arrows the wife and I shot today and re- wrapping a handle on one of the go to shooters. It was her first organized shoot. She wasn't as consistent as she is in the yard, but ended up the talk of the entire event by drilling a perfect bulls eye on the course's notoriously hard shot. It is a 40 yard downhill(20' drop down in the first 15' forward) on a tiny coyote with a kill zone about soft ball sized. This shot was made with one of my first successful bows, a 35# @ 28" ash board bow, with a lightweight ERC arrow I made from a 2 x 4. Up until that point, I was afraid she might not have been having fun. I guess it just takes one good shot to make you forget all the bad ones that came first. That sounds darn near sage-like wisdom right there
Met some new faces that were smart and stayed home during last years -20 temperatures. As if meeting like minded locals wasn't good enough, I made a connection for osage and yew locally. One of the shooter turned out to be a hero/influence of mine, a local wildlife artist named Jack Paluh. I even got invited to his studio to paint with him sometime. My parents have numerous prints of his hanging on their walls. My father was a little bummed that he declined my invite, but may attend next year.
Today was a pretty sweet day indeed.
