    Its worth it to have your bow setup correctly yes.
    Go have it double checked.

    LOL you just say that cause Hysell set mine up but that was 2 years ago now. I think that I am in good shape but I will remember that for the future. I do like having Hysell fletch all my arrows though. Don't know if I will end that.

    Yeah I agree Ted does a great job on fletching.
    Hey maybe this is why I hit that frame? LOL

    I was reading on another board and they were talking about ways to quiet the LoneWolf Sticks. They do tend to make a lot of noice if the buckles bang against them when hiking in. One guy said he took the end cap off and filled it with foam. Then wrapped the poles in camo tape. Said he has never had a problem with noise since.

    Has anyone tried this or done anything? I haven't really noticed much noise but figured I would ask!

    I did not have that problem but I did velcro the seat to the stand. I will show you next time and I have a whole roll of the stuff.

    I don't really have any sound issues except sometimes when I am hiking in and a clip hits one of the hollow poles. But if I pick it right I don't have that problem.

    Alright Ferg I wacked a yearling female about 08:45 this morning with a rifle.
    I was on the phone with the wife and she came out so a buck sticker is in order here.
    Kudo's to Dukemichaels for letting me use that stand on public land.
    Thanks Mike,
    T

    P.S.- I know you will miss her, the DIK, lol
