That's a promise...

I am heading to South Africa in May for the first time and taking my older Exocet. We will be hunting plains game and I have built a 600-grain carbon arrow for this trip. Looking for broadhead suggestions. I may have the opportunity to hunt bull giraffe as well as kudu, gemsbuck, impala and warthog....

I had a Boo string and STS on a new Vortex and thought it made a whole lot of difference. If you do nothing else, I highly recommend the string upgrade and get in touch with Boo!

Game Plan Gear makes this pack and you can order it from their website. Cost is $85...

I just booked my first trip for October 2007 and it is with Motsomi Safaris. Pieter has been very accomodating so far and I have spoken with almost all the people on his reference list. If you go to the website (www.motsomi.com) you will see several pictures of a woman and her crossbow kills. The wa...

Do you unstring the limbs when travelling? In the instruction manual it mentions doing so if the bow is going to be in hot climate. I do not expect that to be the case in Texas come March. Great suggestion!
