Re: Pathos 130 Laser Carbon testing
I think you should first change out the sears with the Ermes kit, the difference is dramatic. With a 7mm @ 160cm shaft and Mori slip tip your actual shaft length after putting on the slip tip is probably closer to 180cm ... and with a 7mm shaft that thing will whip very quickly. With a slip tip, shaft stability is even more important than with a flopper as it can dislodge the slip tip in flight and as you can imagine that is not good. I would recommend at least a 7.5mm shaft, and always have a slip tip with spectra and slide ring guide facing up. Load one band and then pull the spectra and put it under the band and slowly load the second band ... this will pull the tip tight on the shaft and keep it in place as you swim around ... when you do fire, inertia should keep the shaft properly in place.

Re: Pathos 130 Laser Carbon testing
Spearq8- what difference do the Sears upgrade make? Trigger pull seems ok but i have never shot one w upgraded sears.. I'll try shooting it w slide ring facing up and see if that makes a difference. But I know that it is the 7mm shaft that's causing it shoot low, although I don't know why it's low- thought it might high or off to side if anything...
Ren- double wrap w a reel. Didn't take any shots at 8' so I couldn't tell you. But I did recently convert my Pathos 90 w a Mantis roller and it shoots amazing at 15' Last edited by Gonefishing82; 12-25-2015 at 01:41 PM. |

Re: Pathos 130 Laser Carbon testing
It is the slip tip that is throwing your shot off. I tested last night a 120 Pathos and it was super accurate and consistent at 20 feet.

Re: Pathos 130 Laser Carbon testing
Resurrecting an old topic. What was the wishbone length for the optimal range for the 130 with the ermes upgrade?
Thank you! |
