Looks like an above-ground man-cave....I thought it said in the book that your cave is supposed to be in the basement or a detached garage? (Unless, of course, you are not married and have a whole house.)

Bow in the living room.
2 bows and a shotgun in the bedroom. Not married but live with the GF.

She likes when things die.

6" brace height?!# Not a bow I would ever shoot since I'm a finger shooter. LOL

I can't shoot a release to save my life. I got bad target panic w/ a release! Put a firearm in my hands and I'm going to be eating whatever I am aiming at.

What do you use for a quiver?

Ever tried getting coached on a back tension release? It cures target panic every time.

Some one suggested trying one of those back tension releases, but they were pretty $$$.

Winn Archery sells a C-12 release. You have to squeeze it to keep it gripping the string and you let up on it to release the string (similiar to shooting w/ fingers type of deal). It runs about $60, but I haven't tried it. I have a C-10 and it is very comfortable (since it wraps the whole hand, you feel like you are holding much less weight that you really are).

I haven't shot my compound in a decade or so. May be my target panic is gone. Shooting with fingers worked for the archers in the English Crusades and the American Indians so it is good enough for me. I have been using a finger tab and like them a lot more than the three finger gloves.

Well the American Indians had to put 12 plus arrows in a Bison to drop it.

I'm sure the Burner cranked back up to #75 can do it in one.

If I need to shoot a bison, my .338 win mag will do it in one shot at a longer range than your Burner. LOL Hmmmmm.... bison burgers are good. Best burger I have ever eaten was moose burger hands down!

Shot the Bowtech Destroyer 350 at Lancaster Archery in PA this past monday. Awesome bow, Burner is faster though.

Also the Burner now has a Doinker DISH 12" on it.
Def like it more than the b-stinger.
