    Something is wrong with my Admiral. It's shooting very inconsistently and I'm unsure why.:confused: Last week I shot it and it was dead on...now its shooting a foot low at 40 and about 4" low at thirty. I moved my 30 yard pin down and its hit and miss and I'm sure its not me. I can't believe the gap in between my 20 & 30. Sometimes it does hit dead on and then sometimes its way off. Got out my tribute and every arrow went where I was aiming. So that's enough proof for me that its the bow and not me. While shooting it this summer it did the same thing while shooting at 40 yards. I fiddled with the rest and thought I had fixed it. Rest is a limbdriver. Everything appears to be tightened down.

    I had a shot on a decent 8 point (maybe 100") this morning but let him pass by at 27 yards. Glad I did because of two reasons. First, I would never have seen the big boy and the way my bow is shooting...it probably would have been a bad shot.

    The big boy I was referring to is a big 10 point I discovered this morning. I'm thinking this guy is in the 140's....he's BIG. Tried grunting and rattling him in but he was hot on the trail. Maybe tomorrow.

    That's why it's always good to have that backup bow. The Tribby is no slouch.
