What is up, everybody? Mark on the mic here. I have repeat guest, but it's been a while,

0:08.0

Mike. I got Mike Tussle across from me here today from our consumer sales department. If you've

0:12.8

called into vortex, you may have talked to Mike before. It's likely you answer a lot of phone calls,

0:16.9

Mike. We do. Yep. Thanks for doing that, man. Yeah. Topic today is kind of a, it's both sites,

0:25.0

but we're picking a part, we're picking a part of the bow site, the bubble level. Both sites are

0:30.5

pretty complex these days, these days, Mike. Yeah, they've come a long way. Many of my bow sites in

0:36.3

my personal bow history, they didn't have a bubble level on them. Now they oftentimes do. We've

0:42.7

got a couple examples here in front of us. If you're watching on YouTube, I've got a, a CBE site

0:48.5

1:32.8

shoots in this area. So used to shoot quite a bit. You use your bubble level at these shoots.

1:37.9

Every shot. Yeah. That was my next question. How often should you be checking your bubble level?

1:44.0

I built it into my shot process. I used to shoot at a club up in Bearaboo. That's about an hour

1:51.2

from here. Their practice range is not level. So they actually have, and it's not a huge slope,

but they had enough of a slope that when you shoot at their 40 yard bail, you would see a difference.
