Ground Pounders looks the coolest though. :D :D I really like the looks of the Ground Pounder mount. Very symmetrical and balanced and functional. It does require quite a bit more care in setting the arrow in the track, but with all of its other advantages, I can live with that. One advantage of it...

Hmmm, sounds like we need a new scope. Something with the simplicity of the Varizone and the new, brighter objectives of the Lumizone. Without all the electronic gobbledigook.

I'm sure if someone could think of a good name, Bill T would build it. :D

First crossbow deer

Sorry no pics, guys/gals. But thought I would report anyway. This is the first deer I have killed with an arrow in, I can't remember how long. It was a very satisfying feeling. This was with my Exocet 200, with Crazyfarmers Cowwackers and Rage 3 blades. From a ground blind set up in the back of my p...

ch312, one of the things I really like about the groundpounder mount is that when the bow is shouldered and you are looking through the scope, the hood of the quiver not only blocks the animal's view of the bright fletching, but it puts more objects between your face and it. Almost like hiding behin...

The best thing you could possibly do would be to get Crazyfarmer to make you a batch. I wanted bright and I got BRIGHT! :shock: :lol: As you can see by the subdued background colors, they stand out very well.

Duckhunt, Obviously Rage paid attention to your complaints. Because they are now being made with a lengthened groove in the blade track to alleviate the problem you pictured. http://i475.photobucket.com/albums/rr111/DMcglide/rage3003.jpg [/img] http://i475.photobucket.com/albums/rr111/DMcglide/rage3...

Why would you shoot a Hammerhead into a foam target? It travels exactly like your field tip. I mean, exactly. Not a fraction off. Scott Well, that's why I asked the question. Crossbow and mechanicals are new to me but I have always preshot my broadheads prior to hunting with them. I guess with some...

As Vinnie used to say "I'm SO confused!!!" :oops: I have heard a lot of controversy on the 3-blade. Not so much on the 2-blade. I thought I had found the perfect head in the Undertaker, guys with verticle bows around here have been getting incredible and reliable results on both deer and e...

Mechanicals

Can you shoot the Rocket Hammerhead into a foam broadhead target from a 200 lb Exocet without damaging the head?

How about the Rocket Sidewinder?

Harold, I'm afraid you will always be "CF" to me! :D Just received my arrows and wanted to thank you. Very high quality craftsmanship, for a very reasonable price. It is nice to know there is more than one source for high quality, custom arrows. I also am trying the predator vanes and they...

I'm a crossbow newbie so take this for what it is worth. I come from a background of traditional archery where the fixed, two-blade broadhead was king. With arrows that shot at 180 ft per second there was never a problem. Sharpness of the broadhead I feel is critically important. A sharp cut is more...

G.A. I had some trouble with my STS moving a small amount also with the combination of the groundpounder mount. I solved this by putting a small dab of glue (Shoe Goo) in between the STS blocks and the riser.

Works great.

The problem with most high quality rifle scopes is that you will not be able to get them paralex-free at 10 and 20 yards. Possibly pistol scopes would be a more appropriate search area?
