Archery bits

My new Easton X10 side rods arrived from the USA today, they are horribly difficult to get.  To my displeasure I have had to abandon the nice carbon fibre Soma v-bar I had, as it's only a 40° forward sweep which is a pain to shoot around, there's just not enough arm room.  I have therefore scrounged a nice Soma alloy bar.

(All photos are clickable for more biggerer).




Sexeh, eh?  My one remaining gripe is I'd still like the bars to sweep forward a little more, particularly the left one; this will allow some left weight bias to offset the scope without having to add dead weight, plus give a little more arm room.  I've got one of these on order, they're an Easton adjustable-everything v-bar and fiddler's delight.  $85 in Australia (I though Ned Kelly was dead), $45 shipped from the USA - go figure.



I have also fitted my new Beiter scope I have been hanging out for.  It's a 29mm black bodied unit, I really wanted the opaque body to increase the contrast of the dot.  I also got the centre-drilled lens and dot kit, there's a little set of various sized pins that can be pressed through the lens depending on what suits best.




The red ring around the outside is a little optional centring widget that snaps onto the rim of the scope body to give it both some thickness and colour highlight.

Now I just have to finish fletching my ACGs and I can go play out to 90 metres....
