tatsblisters 10,247 Posted June 2, 2022 Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 11mm steel gone back to using my scout ttf with lighter bands than the 1mm bullet bands on the evo goblet that i was using. I have got quite a collection of catapults now what with buying and trying different frames lol though i seem to shoot better with the scout when target practising. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Leo Sayer 2,774 Posted June 3, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2022 Just been watching some old YouTube vids, the pheasant plucker and crazy poacher. The crazy poacher pulls off some good shots in lets say unorthodox places lol. And the pheasant plucker just downing some roosters to some good music, paddy Doyle the poacher and bad boys reply by inner circle lol. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

terryd 8,603 Posted June 4, 2022 Report Share Posted June 4, 2022 9.5 steel and after recommendations off here using precise. The lighter bands are paying off and also a nice short draw length to avoid pulling back past my nose seems to help. I am finding it a bit like my shotgun shooting though the more thought I put in the worse my accuracy. Also trying to be consistent with every thing is tricky. But getting there. Gave that plastic bottle in the stream a right pasting last night lol 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
