fiance just got her first bow
« on: February 22, 2011, 08:09:27 PM »
I just bought my fiance her first bow its a Hoyt ruckus. it came with a whisker Biscuit on it, anybody know what fletching  should be up or down? anyone have any ideas on arrows? i shoot Easton axis, but i don't want to spend that kind of money on arrows that i know will get destroyed, I bought a dozen Easton ST Excels but her first shot was wide and it broke.i want a tough arrow that can take some abuse.

Id shoot cock cane up. Just a good habit to be in. Might get her a drop away some day. Some rests will require that.  My wife and kids shoot gold tip entrada arrows. They've served them well. Good lightweight arrow that will help flatten out their shots. They hold up decently to errant shots. Im happy with them.

Agree wth the drop away rest because any movement to the bow while the arrow is still passing through the biskit will throw the arrow off.. I shoot the easton st excels and no problems
