The sooner you learn to not associate with folks who do not have your best interests at heart, the better.
That sums it up right there. He is being selfish. As an employer he buys your time not your life.

Did you trick it out yet? What did you put on it? I was the same way when I knew I was going to buy mine the next day. Tossed and turned, couldn't sleep. Night couldn't roll by fast enough. Keep us posted on what happens with your situation. I know, you should bring it in to your so called boss and ask what kind of accessories should you put on it. Just kidding. Good luck and have fun with it.

Sweet what kind of arrows? I'm in the process of trial and error with my arrow selection. I've shot PSE Carbon Force 300's (7.something grains per inch) and now I'm trying Easton's Axis 340's (9.5 grains per inch). The lighter arrows just flew like rockets. The heavier arrows are a tad bit slower but I'm more accurate with them. Isn't nice to know that you own the best bow on the planet. Ahhhhhhhhhhhh.

Be careful you dont want to start nothing. In Our opinions we have the best bow in the planet. Just kiddin, but people will start attacking you if you say stuff like that. they are just jealous. Right now im shooting the Easton Axis 400's with 125 grain tips. I think i am going to go to a lighter tip though. I just shot my bow like 50 times, it seems like it is fishtailing to me but i dont know. My arms are too tired to shoot anymore so i will have to work on it a little more tomarrow.

You're (IMO) shooting way to heavy of a tip. I'm shooting my 340's with a 100gr tip and thinking about going even lighter. 50 shots and you're tired. HMMMMM sounds like you need to work out. J/K!!!

What size would you recomend. I am clueless when it comes to this stuff. Also do you know why it would be fishtailing?

You need to paper tune your bow and set it up properly. When all said and done, you should be shooting bullet holes with equal fletch or vane tears around the bullet hole representing the fletch or vane. A fishtaling arrow probably means to heavy of a tip. I'm considering switching to a 75gr with my 340's. However, I'm shooting dimes at 20 yds with my current set up (340's with 100gr field tip).
