I know schnarrfuss picked up one of the lumizone's today at the BowShop. I had the Equinox in hand with the Lumizone on it the day before. Feels nice and compact. A few inches shorter realy changes the balance. The optics on the scope looked nice. Of note, the prices for the Exomax and Exocet droppe...

Thought it seemed low. . .

Found the gun I registered last year.

I can't figure out how it could be narrowed down further. It only utilizes the first two digits of the postal code. Maybe I'm missing something.

Thanks for all the responses... My brothers both hunt with excaliburs and I have had the opportunity to shoot one of them, Exocet 175 I think. I was rather impressed with my first three shots being within one inch at 20 yards. Now I know that isn't me but to the quality of the bow. I haven't had the...

Used Excalibur price

I have been on the look out for a used Excalibur and wondering if this forum could give me some advise regarding price and what to look out for. I'm considering either a Phoenix, Exocet 200, and Exocet (older model). I'm not eliminating the Exomag / Exomax. What should I be looking for (i.e. evidenc...

Welcome Cal... I have been browsing this forum for a little over a year and don't own a crossbow either. I have been hunting with a compound but plan on being an excalibur owner before the September moose season. I've learned a lot from this forum and would recommend it to all with an interest in ar...

Thoughts on Renzo Moose / Whitetail decoys

I was browsing National Archery's website and noticed a special on Renzo whitetail decoys. They appear to be like the foam pop out turkey decoys. The ad doesn't indicate the size but curious if anyone has experience with these. Our group has been talking about a moose decoy for this fall and noticed...

I've been using one for a year now.

Last turkey season a hen walked right out beside the blind without spooking.

They are very easy to set up. I have even set it up without the poles on calm days.

There isn't much room to spare but worth what I paid.

Has anyone had difficulties shipping / receiving crossbows across the border to Canada?

I have heard that this might not be possible.

Your experiences would be appreciated.

Welcome aboard. I would love to take my 9 year old daughter out with me but she says she would scare all the deer away, on purpose. In school they teach her to respect all living animals. Which I agree with. . . .The school doesn't share the history of hunting and how it helps. I try to explain to h...

I would be the brother that is referenced in this post. This was my first big game hunt for moose. As Adam wrote I too felt quite comfortable going with the group of experienced guys. I was hunting with a compound bow, the other 5 with excalibur's, and thought I was prepared for this hunt. Practiced...
