I've seen Larry Dalhberg on TV catch them on "Hunt for Big Fish". They are a great fighting fish on rod and reel... they jump a lot and bulldog like crazy... Just wouldn't use a Jimmy Houston Liplock on 'em.. No kissy kissy either.... Ouch!!

That's a slick looking cheek piece...Is it made of wood?...
Looks like you're around 3/4 or less in height......
I needed a lot to line up my eye properly...

I understand just how frustrated you must feel... Thanks for the website I'll look into it..... OBTW: Evidently the law that Cabelas follows cove...

Yeah, I know Dan... Worked with him before...Great guy to say the least... and I'm really not having a hard time getting equipment myself. But I'm look into more toward changing the law or at least make the excemptions for permit holders......if possible... I don't quite know how to go about it, but...

Access Denied?

Perhaps someone can help me with this.... Evidently there are a couple of states (NJ,NY,NC maybe others) that have a law on the books prohibiting the shipment of crossbows or associated equipment into that particular state... I know this because in the Cabelas catalog a warning is placed on the bott...

I had the same problem so I ordered a wood stock from Mark Henager (search posts on this Forum for more info) But I knew it was going to take a long time to be built so I decided to make one while I waited. I made a wooden top piece from a 1 inch maple dowel 5 inches long.. I need a lot of height to...

The Block stops my Exomax arrows, BUT I noticed that after all this time the arrows are penetrating deeper in the center spot and it feels like it's getting a little soft in the center spot so if you go this route make sure to vary your point of aim... It'll last longer.... Same for broadheads...

Arrow Building Question

Is it better to build weight into the front third of an arrow or simply add weight to the head alone?. I'm shooting an Exomax and I'm considering experimenting with my arrows by adding internal tube weight (12 grains per inch) to a couple of 410 grain 20 inch Gold-Tip carbon arrows to bring them up ...

Exomax Shooting

Finally got my Exomax shooting right.... I have her dialed in and if I do my part 50 yds are like this. Have to tighten everything down occasionally.... My 408 gr Greywolf Gold-tip arrows fly great at 327 fps... I made up some heavier 2219 arrows (weighted to 600 gr) and they slow to 287 fps but the...
