Then I found out I could switch risers which I did, now I have a exomag and a exocet 20...

We also bottle our venison, and its suppose to keep for a long time but it don't keep too long in my place, we bottled half a deer(nice size doe) and we got 26 bottles between two of us. Makes for a nice quick meal with mashed taters, or fries, I usually put mine in a pan with some prefried onions a...

Self Camo on Excalibur

I am in the process of painting the limbs on my deerhide brown exocet, I am looking for ideas on how to paint it, like patterns. Could anyone that has painted their own crossbows post some pics so I can get some ideas, Thanx.

You are right woodsman but it would be easiest to simply unscrew the riser and switch the whole package intact. ( I suspect that is what he meant by changing the limbs etc...) Yes this is what I am planning on doing once the season has ended. Just to see what the results are goin to be. I think I c...

The Maxocet

So let me get this straight, I have a exocet and a exomax, and if I switch out the risers and limbs, I now have 2 exomags, right? Just one would be a exomag and the other would be a maxocet. :D

I like them all, but its pretty hard gettin a passthrough with the 4x4, and its the most expensive of the 5(you forgot shotgun)lol. I am down to using a 2x4 vehicle now.

Yep timmy's was fine, no spillage, but wouldn't chance finishing it off with all the glass flyin around. Skinned out the deer a little while ago, looks like most of it is salvagable, just a bit damage to the backstrap on the impact side. Looks like more pepperettes for us. Maybe we'll get one or two...
