Hey guys! I'm very new to archery, and pretty new to St. Pete and Tampa! Unfortunately I live in an apartment and don't have a backyard and can't afford a trip to the range every day, are there any parks or anything like that where I'm allowed to put a target down and shoot at it? I don't know the regulations on any of this, thank you guys so much!

Gotta get me one of these!
New archer, 1st time to an outdoor range.
I thought we were shooting 50-70m Olympic distances.
Nope. I'm shooting decoys of deer, bear, turkey
Obviously I'm missing and hitting the tree behind.
Didn't have pliers and my rubber arrow puller wasn't performing its job.

In the process of setting up my first compound bow and noticed a price gap in sights.
You can get a simple sight with a few pins and no magnification for an Alex ($10) or a Drew ($20). But as soon as you add a lense, you're up there talking to Ben ($100)
Yeah some sights are right up around the price of a mid priced bow. I had an expensive $400 sight and scope around this time last year and it didn't do so well.
Since then I've bought and traded in the used market and finally found a combo I like.

Thoughts on Asian bows
0%viable alternative

I haven't purchased one of these specific bows, but I have a Sanlida recurve and have purchased blade rests from them for my compound as well as some other odds and ends and the quality has been just fine. If you're not out there shooting 900's in Vegas, with such a massive price difference, it makes sense to me to give one of these a shot.

Got my big fat Deer Crossing Archery Full Caliber 27 series arrows after they sit in the post office several days due to the weather.
Wanted to get them fletched ASAP so I could possibly shoot tomorrow night so I decided to use my old JoJan 6 arrow jig. I also wanted to do a 4 fletch.
After I got 3 vanes on 6 arrows I realized the JoJan does a 75°X105° instead of 4 @ 90°.
But they fly great so all is well and although I don't need it, I have plenty vane clearance!

Suffered a finger injury that is taking a long time to heal. Looking for wrist releases to take the draw weight off of my fingers until I'm better.
Seems that there is no much variety. Caliper or hook attachment to the loop. What else is out there?
My son has a Scott Verge I let him have and I have a B3 Hawk. Both are hooks
The Verge has a click like a hinge but you can also set it up for no click. It has a long trigger that you can place your index and middle finger on to trigger it.
It's a nice release but I prefer the B3 Hawk as the length from trigger to the hook is longer for the Verge and throws my anchor off.
I prefer the Hawk over any index finger release. It has good travel adjustment. They're making a new version with a lot of trigger options. I have the spring trigger option for mine and it works great for working on your form and execution and squeezing the shot off.

Getting started late in life - 48yo
Not looking to compete, just fell in love with the feeling of releasing an arrow and hearing the thunk!

Deer Crossing Archery?
Has anyone tried their arrows?
I just got in on their field staff and I have a dozen of their Full Caliber 27 series arrows coming my way.
Just wondering if anyone has experience with them?
I've never heard of them but let me know how they do and maybe I'll see about getting some.

Hey! Welcome to the life! Lake Park, north of Tampa off of Dale Mabry has several targets up and space where you could throw down your own. Last time I was there it was $2 to get in. Everything else I’ve found so far is either pay as you go or annual memberships.
