I have been hiking and stump shooting after work near Maple Valley WA.  Around 4pm.  Great exercise and steep.  I would like to have some company if anyone is interested PM me.  I will post some pictures.  The best stumps I have ever killed, some real trophies..

Agreed Kirk. But, if you are able to stabilize the wood thourghly first, I have had zero issues with the wood moving next to the composites. I have risers that sit in my garage or shed year round in Iowa from high humidity 100*+ to very dry -10* temps and no problems at all with the stabalized bows.

But......not all wood stabilize well, especially the oily varieties. Bocote is one, I stabilized some of it one time, and while it stabilized OK, it ruined my batch of Cactus Juice. You could literally see the oil coming out of it with the air and it turned my juice into Root Beer.

For those of you interested, here is a link to my supplier. Been very happy with them. If you are just using the G10 for accents, limb pad caps, and tip overlays etc, it pretty reasonable. I use .031 alot. For I-beams the .375 will run about $20-$30 per riser depending on the size of your riser block.

I use a lot of Spectraply single sheets for accents. You can get them all colors Lime green one of my favorites  :bigsmyl: using composites might be better off with stabilized wood or diamondwood.

FYI, the Rainbow Bowmen Archery Club has been in existence since 1957. We were a part of the local Rainbow Sportsmen Club, which had a variety of interests and then got our own 70 acre property and clubhouse (have a beautiful indoor range, too, now). The club includes trad, compound and crossbow shooters and we share our facilities harmoniously. We welcome all trad shooters to our Memorial Day weekend trad shoot. Talk with those who have been here before. A truly great time!
