The Summit Viper get's my vote.

Great story along with a great deer. I am new to crossbow hunting and it has opened several places for me to hunt that I could never get permission to gun hunt. I landed an 8 pointer (not as big as your 8 pointer) and a nice doe on Saturday morning, which were my first crossbow deer. Since this area...

Thanks for the info. I purchased the 2 Blade because no 3 Blade was available. My concern was the 2 Blade seemed so wide, it my break up on contact if it hit a rib. Your experience shows this is not the case. Congrats on the 11 pointer.

Anyone one looking for Rage 3 Blade quickly learns they are on back order until after this year's season. I found Rage 2 Blade at a local Archery Shop and they said some people even prefer the 2 Blade 2 inch cut vs the 1.5 inch cut of the 3 Blade. Sounds like an excuse for being out of the Rage 3 Bl...

I have cocked by Exomax in the climbing stand with the rope cocking aid with no problem a number of times. I place the stirrup on the platform of the stand. I have hand cocked it a few times, but am concerned the string will not be dead center and the cocking aid takes care of that and it is much ea...

Congrats Saxman. Good luck on the big buck tomorrow.

Great Job with both the trail cam pictures and Buck. I too am interested in the type trail cam you used and if you have any recomendations.

I am having the same experience. The pre-rut does not seem to have started. I have seen several buck traveling together at a distance and most of all of the does still have fawns. We had a cold front come thru over the weekend and don't know if that really has an effect, usually the amount of daylig...

I rifle & muzzleloader hunted for 25 years and picked up crossbow hunting this year. I even have taken a number of deer with my 44 mag pistol. Crossbow hunting has opened up some more options on where I can hunt. I live in Nashville and have several friends who have 10 to 20 acre tracts in urban...

Great Job! Letting the average bucks will pay off sooner or later.Thanks for sharing the pictures

I purchased a Nikon Monarch Laser 800 Rangefinder for $299 from outdoorsexperience.com. I rifle hunt as well and thought this range finder would work for all situations. I have been using this season and it has great features and have had no problems.

I do not know who Dan Miller is or how to purchase equipment from him. Can anyone fill me in on the details? I am new to archery hunting and this forum. Thanks.

I purchased my Exomax from Outdoors Experience in May. Their website is www.outdoorsexperience.com and their inventory was excellent. I make several phone calls to their customer service dept asking quite a few questions. They were very helpful. When I ordered, they shipped the next day. I later pur...

Kendo, thanks for sharing your knowledge of tracking deer. I have rifle and muzzleloader hunted for the past 20 years and this year finally started hunting with a crossbow last week. My 3 daughters were involved with fall soccer over the years I did not have the time to hunt until after archery seas...

I see deer and turkey in the same area quite often. I would not change the location that you hunt. Everyone is entitled to an opinion, but I don't think you should have any problem.
