Switch a torch on in most of the woods I've been in and not much hangs around for a shot. I use mine to just shoot/lamp with. And most stuff just sits there in the beam mostly, odd one flys off. Mainly woodys , longtails and nest raiders. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Smarted abit lol I've got a few different frames, but probably only a handful I find suit me. A certain style fits my hand well were as some don't unfortunately no matter how nice they are. And I can only shoot 90mm to 100mm width forks. Also I'd love to shoot tube but am useless with it and only shoot flatband. I've only been shooting about 4 years or so. And it was just practice practice practice and more practice until I got proficient. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
