We compare a 50# and 60# PSE Supra at 40 meters. We discuss differences and why we expect to see a difference in the arrow grouping. www.archeryshop.com.au
I could not agree more he keeps target bows and stock he keeps everything in stock nobody in the US does that Steven is awesome I called him a problem from here in the United States And he done everything to try to help me
im younger but ive always had pain in my arm with a handheld release, i switched back to a wrist strap a while ago and my pain went away, and my shooting stayed the same if not improved
Have you ever wound a bow from 60 to 50 I do it with my PSE Drive I practice, indoor, field etc at 50 and hunt at 60. It takes awhile to be used to the 50 again, it feels soft a little sloppy , my anchor feels out and it take at least 30 shots to feel comfortable with it again.
@@AussieArcher1234 your draw weight adjustments actually mess with your draw length just a tad. Lower weight=slightly longer draw. Now it isn’t a huge difference but it may be why your anchor feels off.
@@reaganriddle The draw is set perfect for 50 as thats what I compete at , its lucky if it an 1/8 differant at 60 .and I take the grip off to compensate.
If you're feeling pain that means you're over bowed mate. A lot of guys seem to suffer from the same malaise, heavier is better even if they can't manage it.
Like your video, I just bought first compound bow, have not shot it yet.Going from 70lb to 50 lb because my draw length is short and its a 2007 Parker Wildfire with no poundage changing holes on the cam so I must change poundage by getting shorter strings, any way I have been doing some rifle shooting with a Vortex Strike Eagle lpvo and all though I do have some experience shooting rifles I did not realize that all though I did notice that the dot was larger then the bullseye how much it was negatively effecting my shot group which was only 25 yards, however when the power range was lowered to where the dot was not larger then the bullseye my group size dropped dramatically, 6 shot group was wide but minus the flyer the 5 shot group was under a dime at 25 yds.4 0f the shots touching, but when the dot was bigger then the bullseye my group was ehhh...ehhh. thats because i could center my dot inside the target which made my groups better. I can understand you wanting to shoot the 60 lb bow over the 50 lb bow because it feels better but I think that you should not judge the two bows based on the precision of the bow shot with the oversized aiming dot. Again great video.
More holding weight gives greater stability in the wind. I would also suggest you experiment with different stabiliser weight set ups on the two bows, because optimal total bow weight depends on holding weight. If I shoot a bow with much lower holding weight, the stabiliser set up needs to be lighter as their is less holding weight to ‘hold it up’
I just started testing the Accuview scope with the crosshair thing and a .15 pin. I’m having really good luck with it because the ring at the center of the cross hair lets you kinda use it the way you use a dot. You line up the ring circle with the outer yellow ring. But you also have a pin. I have it on my 36” 3D bow (Darton Tempest) and I had shoot off with my TRX 38 indoors at 20 yards or as you would say ehteen meatas. Anyways it won all three rounds by the exact same 2 points. Also The cross hairs let you know the bubble is off before you even check the bubble. So the shot process seemed a hair faster using it. Anyways give it a try I think you’ll like the combo for outdoors.
It's funny to see that even halfway around the world you are shooting at the same target faces from JVD in the Netherlands as we do here in Germany - welcome to the global village :)
I thought you were going to wind down to 50 and back up to 60. Then sighting equipment ect would have been identical. Good comparison none the less. Thanks
Hi Stephen...why not shoot it at 55 lb draw weight just to give ya that extra thump?🤔 Don't know if that's allowed btw. Good video thank you for taking the time to make them. 😊🤙
Don’t mean to be rude but I’m a twig and I can pull back 80 pounds I have a Hoyt that I use for hunting that is set for 75 pounds love it don’t need to work out just shoot more you’ll get stronger
Because you're up in places like that people really do not hunt with compound bows there's more targets shooting than hunting and you're only allowed to shoot 60 and under for Target and field that's why you see a lot of 60 lb bows
I’ve been telling guys for years to crank down the poundage on their bows no they have to be tough guys and kill their shoulders to the point where they can’t shoot anymore
Hmm not a true comparison if the bows are not set up 100% identical, talking through draw cycles and how they feel to shoot is ok but it’s not a true test of accuracy is sights and peep are different
My daughter and I love your videos... in Australian man we trust... Wish we had shop owners in the US like you! Good luck in your matches!
We trust? Brother what are you saying

You ' called him a problem ' and he ' done everything to try to help you '? I think you need to proof read before sending mate :-))
Am pondering dropping from 50 to 40 so useful, thanks Stephen.

It’s a bit unfair on the 50lb if you couldn’t see the centre

You should really switch the scopes, re do the test and then see.

Mate, I'm so glad you're shooting a bow, but can you be tougher please, our younger ones need to know someone is in charge

Thanks
Draw length would change though, especially on a Supra Focus
I have an additional aspect for you to test Steven but I've gotta try it for myself on Saturday first😂
I would suspect the entire issue is the scope. You shoot too well for it to be the bow when the sight does not allow for any consistency.
Hi Stephen...why not shoot it at 55 lb draw weight just to give ya that extra thump?🤔
Don't know if that's allowed btw.
Good video thank you for taking the time to make them. 😊🤙
This Video Blow Up my Shoes!
What's the reason you didnt wind the 60 pound bow down to 50 pound rather than using a different bow?
If u slide your sight closer to the bow you will see you have much more control and it will improve your accuracy try it
The 60 works better with the wind and the 50 is better for indoor
I shoot best at #53-55lbs with 500sp arrows with very light points (~65gn + 20gn insert).
If it's outdoors and windy... well that's another matter.
What size are those vanes? Bohning X-Vanes 2.25”?
Bring a shorter stabilizer on the day of the shot in case it's really windy.
Don’t mean to be rude but I’m a twig and I can pull back 80 pounds I have a Hoyt that I use for hunting that is set for 75 pounds love it don’t need to work out just shoot more you’ll get stronger
Do you leave the tag on to sell it later?
I like a colored ring for field IFAA or Fita field
Hi I have a question did you use the same spin arrow? I thought you would use a weaker spin arrow for 50 pounds compared to 60 pounds?
He covers that in the beginning the 50 l# he is using 500 spine and 60# 340 spine
@@ChilleDxFighteR thank you nurse was yapping while I was trying to her him.
I was wondering why I don't see many 70# or 80# bows from Europe but most of the time in the US the most popular bows are 70# and 80# some 60#
Because you're up in places like that people really do not hunt with compound bows there's more targets shooting than hunting and you're only allowed to shoot 60 and under for Target and field that's why you see a lot of 60 lb bows

@@chrishallal1125 ok thanks for the explanation because in the US 70# is used a lot for target especially in unknown distance like IBO
@@chrishallal1125 Poundage is not the issue. You cant shoot over 300fps , in most classes in Australia
It's a macho man thing. In the Europe, we're much more refined in our way of thinking :-))

Just shot an elk last week with it
Push and us the 60.. it is what your subconscious is telling you...
