    Ok the bracket is suppose to fit into the slots on the seat.
    Anyone have any issues with it not fitting into these slots?
    The bracket seems to wide.


    Thanks,

    You figure things out yet Peak?

    I finally figured out the best way to pack in my Alpha climber (thanks to that little video-clip).....just need to upgrade the backpack straps.

    T, did you finally figure it out or do I have to come over and show you! LOL I stopped at Gander today and they didn't have hardly any LW stands or steps. I am going to get mine from Graf next week!

    What Gander were you at Jim? The Gander in Joliet has about nothing for stands.

    I was at the one in Kenosha, WI today. Spent a busy day hitting a bunch of stores. Went to Bass Pro at Gurnee twice, Gander once and Hysell Archery.

    Does this place look better than Arrowsmiths?

    Please tell me it does.....you could lose a small child in Arrowsmiths.

    Hysell doesn't have hardly any inventory compared to Arrowsmiths. Still a nice shop but nothing special. They are a Hoyt dealer. That's why I go.

    I think you could lump all of the Hoyt dealers in Wisconsin together and you still wouldn't have the amount of inventory Arrowsmiths did.

    I really think the guy just orders 15 of everything when he places orders, regardless of whether he sold anything or not.

    I just wish I could get him to order the White Knuckle Productions dvd's. I have another call to put into him next week. Guy has tons of dvd's but won't buy from me.

    Hey, you do know I saw "Beyond The Kill" at Arrowsmiths last year right? It must have been a free copy or something.... :confused: ?

    I believe I told Todd about it at the IL Deer and Turkey Classic. Basically, I told him about the state of the shop and that I couldn't believe the guy could even find their DVD in that mess.

    Speaking of which, Cimmaron had a booth last year at the IL Classic. I thought about the 3-D course and that guy's son was working the booth. That guy that helped us that day we shot.

    T, what happened at Hysell's? You didn't tell me about that.

    Arrowsmith's did have a demo copy but he isn't sure if he will carry them in the store yet. I hope to speak with him during the week. I have a ton of calls to make so he is just one of many!

    Ferg he first told me I could not use a dropaway on bow, FALSE.
    I got a NAP stringless rest and he put it on and set it all up.
    When I got it back it was off center badly and the rest to close to the shelf
    and the arrow pointing to the right. The folks at outdoorsmen could not believe
    he gave the bow back to me like that. Could be a product of his drinking issues.

    Yeah, that wasn't too long ago, was it Peak.

    I totally forgot about that. Glad you got things squared away now though.

    I don't remember hearing about that. Definetly wouldn't be surprised if that was a issue from the drinking. I like Mary Beth but am really not a fan of Steve. Where is Outdoorsmen at?

    I will have to go check that store out. I might swing by on my way up north one day this week. Is it worth a visit?
