It looks in very nice shape. I wanted it to use untill crossbows are legal during bow season. The pawn shops are filling up with things other than junk as more and more people lose their jobs.

I just took the hunter safety class 4 days ago and they said you can be inspected at any time on any property. Even private property. A person in class ask if it was ok to hunt on a ATV if you were on private land. He said no not without a permit. The conservation uses planes and helicopters to keep...

Certified Hunter.

I am finally certified to hunt. I went and took the class on 9-11 and 9-12. It was a very fun class. Got a 100% on my test. I am now trying to get time to get into the woods. I have yet to buy my first ever tag. I am trying to get time away from work. I went out the day before yesterday and bought a...

With so much public land to hunt. Why do people chose to go on private land uninvited. Maybe on public land your more likely to become the hunted due to overcrowding? I live in the city and own no real amount of land other than my yard. Back in the day my folks had 20 acers but when they retired the...

The very sad thing is these people are probably voters as well. Its weird how ignorance can spread faster than truth! A lot of folks would rather listen to someone ignorant or just make something up rather than research what they talk about. A very sad thing indeed. :cry:

I really like the Excal excel string that came with the Vortex. I think I have broke it in. I went to the range Thursday after giving it 12 twists to tighten it back up. The time before at the range I was consistantly shooting 5 inches low when I knew I was shooting dead on at 40 yds the time before...

Firebolts seem to be the most reasonably priced, and you can buy them anywhere that sells Excalibur Bass pro, Cabelas etc.... I broke my first Firebolt arrow the first day out. The second I am still using. buried it to the fletching 3 times. Shot it through 1" plywood backing behind the target ...

I just got a new string and had to adjust my scope because my bow is now a little faster. I sighted in at 20 and it was good for 30 but was actually hitting high at 40 and 50. I started messing with the clicks. Put it away and started again the next day because there was a bit of wind. Next day: ri...

My friend in High School put 2 55 gallon drums together. The bottom was the wood pit and the top was the meat house. Made some sweet meat!!!

I hope your wife is ok. Glad nothing broke on the bow. Would that be a dry fire?

What exactly is brace height and what should it be? The exact same thing has happened to me at the static range with my scope. I use the Excel string and have made about 200 shots with it. But like my Dad and Limbs and Bolts said "it will still be in the kill zone."

I went to our HUGE outdoor shop and they had at least one of every brand on the wall. Only one Excalibur the Phoenix. I went in wanting an Excalibur and the salesman was trying to get me to go with Parker and Ten Point saying Ten Point was the Best but if I wanted something cheaper get the Parker He...
