Happy Canada Day and 4th of July to everyone. This week's cold shot challenge is using something that makes an appearance at a lot of BBQS this time of a year, a red solo cup, and we're gonna fill it up...with arrows. It's a simple challenge to help us aim small, simple secure the cup however you'd like and walk back 10 paces and take your shot. If successful the next day go an additional 2 paces If unsuccessful you repeat the yardage the next day. Enjoy! I'll post my daily attempts for the coming week. Day 1 success. Tomorrow is 12 paces. If you don't have a cup simply make something similar in diameter.

Alright. It's done. The "Arrow Coach Pro" App is LIVE!!! We built Arrow Coach Pro, a tuning companion for traditional archers. Longbow, recurve, ASL, selfbow. Built for the way we actually shoot, not the way compound spine charts assume you do. After 54 years of shooting traditional bows and thousands of conversations at clinics, range days, and student calls, the question Grant hears more than any other is some version of: "Are my arrows tuned right? Am I heavy enough for elk? Why is my group doing that?" The answer is almost never "shoot a faster bow." It's almost always "let me see your arrow." What is wrong with my shooting process???....The answer is often arrow tune. So we built the tool we wished we had. 🎥 Watch this first, every member needs to see this: ARROW COACH PRO APP - ANNOUNCEMENT VIDEO Grant walks you through everything, why we built it, what's inside, and the moment that made all of us go whoa. (Grant's walkthrough...why we built it, the spine calculator, the photo coach reveal, the game-readiness piece). This video explains the why behind every feature in the app. Don't skip it. 👉 The big news: everyone gets the Basic App!!! 🎉 We're not gating the whole thing behind a paywall. Every single member of The Ethical Predator gets the Basic "Arrow Coach Pro" App. No catch. The Basic App - Complete Spine/FOC Calculator, Total Arrow Set Up - is yours the moment you join the community. Free. No upgrade needed. But here's where it gets interesting. The three tiers... We're rolling this out in three tiers. Here's exactly what you get at each one: STANDARD — Free - Community of 2000+ Traditional Bowhunters worldwide - Basic Arrow Coach Pro App access - Complete Spine/FOC Calculator (works for traditional setups - center-shot, cut-past-center, ASL, selfbow) - Guided Bare-Shaft Testing — the protocol Grant's taught for decades, walked through step by step - Weekly Cold Shot Challenge - Quick Start Traditional Bowhunting Online Course

Hope you get out to fling some arrows today!

Due to an injury I may have to be changing my setup. Previously, I’ve run 45 pound bows, longbow and recurve, and a 580-625 grain arrow. I may require to reduce my draw weight as much as possible. The minimum draw weight in Maine hunting is 35 pounds. I will probably be looking to shoot no less than that in the off season to try and keep comfortable with it. For what it’s worth, at 45# I was able to shoot 60+ arrows a day without an issue. Since the injury with 45#, 4 arrows in, my arm was unstable and after 8 arrows, I was gassed. All that said, I’d like to stay at the 12+ gpi arrows if I go down to 35# as most of my hunting is no further than 12 yards so loss of speed isn’t critical. I’m curious of what any of you may have for light poundage setups.

She actually did Great!
