My first hunt (ever) with my Vixen`

Hello Everyone, I just got a phone call from Wildwindom (Gary L's son ) and he asked if I wanted to go hunting with him this year, I about jumped out of my skin with excitement. As most of you know I have never been on a hunt, seen a wild turkey or any other game for that matter. However one time in...

Nice bird

Wow Wabi, That is an excelleent looking bird, how far was the bird. I hear that turkeys are not easy to get no matter what you use. I'm glad you got him. He looks pretty big. Does the meat taste different between the male turkeys or female? Like do the males have more muscle, I'm sure the females ar...

Will a Vixen fit in an Allen X-bow case

Hey Everyone, It's Mike again. I saw a nice Allen crossbow case on ebay and was wondering if it would fit my Vixen. The price is only 25.00 and looks like a good deal. But I do not want to get it if it wont fit my Vixen which I shoot exclusively nowdays. Please let me know what you all think, but th...

Thanks for understanding

Jim it sounds like you are a very good shot, I will keep my eyes open for a scope. Do you have a 3/8 " dovetail mount by chance? And I think we have some things in common, for no one out here in California even has crossbows for sale, there is not even alot of archery equipment available. Which...

Jim I apologize

Just wanted to publicly apologize for any offense, or bad feelings I may have caused due to an earlier post about letting a friend shoot my Vixen. I was just too excited and my words came out wrong, everyone here is a much better shooter than me I'm sure. But my friend who shot my Vixen was telling ...

I apologize Jim

I did not mean to offend anyone, and I hope the lengthy email I wrote you cleared many things up. Like how my Vixen was generously given to me by Gary L. And that when I shot my friends Barnett, It was not the scope at all being loose or it not being calibrated. He was just not a very good shot. But...

A common interest, (Crossbows) leads to uncommon friendships

Hello Again Everyone, it's Mike from California. I have been shooting my new Vixen for most of the day in my backyard and I'm still amazed at what a good shooter I've become overnight (smile). All kidding aside it's clear to see that it is not me but rather my new bow that shoots so well. I do not m...

Has anyone shot Buffalo with an Xbow

Hello everyone it's me Mike from California, Gary L has sent my Vixen and it should be here anyday. We were talking about a Buffalo hunt and I was just wondering if anyone has taken one with a crossbow. Although I have never been on a hunt, perhaps with time when my accuracy improves there will be a...

Sandman that is a great story, sorry you missed your target but what a great moment that must have been when she said that.
