Excalibur Crossbow Forum

Just been watching the latest reports on the Hurricane. I have never seen anything like it in my life, and God only knows what it must be like in New Orleans, and the other places that were caught up in it. I knew it was bad, but had no idea till just now exactly how bad it is. What devastation, and...

Hi you guys, Just to let you know that the final info from the East regarding crossbows,(See end of this post) has made up my mind to go "Vertical" I have had some wonderful offers for swapping, or buying my Pheonix, from a number of members on the forum, and I thank each and everyone of y...

Hi Guys, I am still in Ontario, but only for another week. It looks like I will be hanging on to the Pheonix for now, but may have to go down the Vbow road before long as things stand in NB. Thats not a bad idea Nudo, I certainly feel like using it on them! I have had a number of offers to buy or sw...

Those things sure look scarey The pics I took don't really show the mess that the Fergus twister did, and I must say I felt a little guilty taking them for some reason!? It was the first time I have seen anything like that, and I just felt so sorry for the poor sods caught up in it! Thank God no one...

Here are a few pics from the recent Tornado that touched down near Fergus. The clean up was well underway when I took these..... http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b253/grizzled47/tornado/Img1086.jpg Smashed trees! http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b253/grizzled47/tornado/Img1083.jpg Tool shed! http:...

Anyone who has read up on my last post "Like a kid at Chritmas" will know that I have just bought a new Pheonix. It was my intention to shoot at targets, and maybe control any nuisance wildlife on my own land in New Brunswick. Then I was informed by the dept of natural resources down there...

I have to agree with everything that has been said on this topic, even though I am new to the sport, and not even from this country. For most of my life in England I was involved in the sport of angling in one form or another. For many years I was a member of one of the top match fishing teams in th...

Bet those brookies are yummy!! I look forward to bagging a few soon near my new home in New Brunswick.
These things don't taste quite the same! lol.

Coming from England, I have never experienced the effects of a tornado, but I would think it is pretty scary!! My wife has been caught up in one, and she told me it is quite an experience. I feel sorry for the people who were touched by these latest one's in Ontario. I was glad to hear that despite ...

Hi Partikle,
Have you any idea where I can get hold of some of those clips that are holding your bolts in the box? Got an idea for something, and need some.
Thanks,
Grizzled.

Hi maritimer, I will be moving near to Miramichi. I bet it does look wonderful in the fall!! I can't wait to get over there....just very disappointed about the bow situation! We will be passing very close to where you came from on our trip down there. Grizzled

Hi Lonewolf, Yeah, I am feeling real gutted now, and not sure what to do. I know you brought it to my attention, but the authorities contacted me this morning anyway, and just confirned what you said! So you don't have to feel bad. They have been using the term "bow" in there mails, and th...

I understand, and I think you are right. What puzzles me in the last mail they sent, is the wording..."It is illegal to possess a crossbow in a resort of wildlife" Isn't my property such a place? And, if so, Is it illegal for me to possess a crossbow on my property? And, if so, illegal for...

This is what they wrote! Landowners experiencing nuisance wildlife problems with wildlife listed in subsection 34(5) of the Fish and Wildlife Act (e.g. coyotes, raccoons and skunks) have three options. First, under the authority of the Fish and Wildlife Act private landowners may destroy or relocate...

Hi A.W, I printed out a copy of the mail, just in case! But this morning I received another mail from the authorities in NB confirming that I can deal with any critters on my own property ( except moose & deer ) but that it is illegal to posses a crossbow in a "resort of wildlife"!!!??...
