Here are some tips that will help you keep your investments longer and fine tune your shots.
Storage
Last summer, a friend of mine bought a great fishing rod and a high-end reel. A few weeks later, he tells me that the anodized aluminum of the rings which hold the reel in place on the pole is oxidized to the maximum. I really didn’t understand. Three days later, he comes back to me, very annoyed, telling me that all his expensive golf clubs (acquired less than a year ago) and those of his wife have also been corroded and that they are no longer. watchable, they look so messed up. I go to his house to find that this equipment is stored near a container of chlorine in an unsealed swimming pool. As I learned more about the subject, I discovered that road salt for melting ice as well as gaseous fumes from improperly stored batteries can also cause such damage. Before putting your hunting and fishing equipment in a corner for the winter, make sure that there are no such harmful products nearby that could cause damage and deterioration.
Targets
It is imperative to take the time to polish the accuracy of your archery and crossbow shots before even thinking of going into the forest. According to Alexis Sarrazin, of the Quebec firm Zone T3 located in Victoriaville, most followers use targets that are not suitable for punctures and lacerations caused by sharp broadheads. The latter then replace these blades with practice points of the same weight so as not to damage anything. However, there are products like Eruption and Rocky foam cubes made with high density urethane and specially designed to slow down arrow travel with or without broadhead. Remember that the boom travels differently when it is equipped with blades. We must therefore adjust accordingly. The price ranges from $ 109 to $ 169. If you prefer a shooting pocket, the T400 is more economical to buy and makes pulling out arrows easier. However, it is not suitable for broadheads. Price: $ 89 www.zonet3.com
The Rinehart firm has developed an impressive line of incredibly realistic animal targets. They are made with very high density foam that closes when the boom is removed. You can use a sharp point as well as a practical one. The vital area of the animal, which is inevitably the most targeted, is easily interchangeable at low cost. The game is presented from different shooting angles and poses. You can find everything from hare and raccoon to deer and even moose. Rinehart3d.com
Precision shooting
The hobbyist who wants to enhance his performance on the shooting range or in the field can add a Browning Anti-Cant Ring Cap to the upper part of his rifle scope mount. This tool, which is in fact a level, guarantees you good positioning and a perfect shooting angle. What’s great about this little device, which is detailed less than $ 70is that it absolutely does not obstruct the overall field of vision. browningcatalog.ca
