I guess it is time!!!

The last several of weeks have been tough. I turned 80 this year and finally the hips are just not reliable enough to track a deer. I have really debated whether to press my luck or to just sit back and relive the past 15 years since I returned to bow hunting. It was about 6 years now that I have go...

Re: A good day for me

:wink: Fine words my friend. This past season I too was able to harvest a doe and a fine 8 point buck. It is amazing the quiet time spent in a blind or a stand. Life here is also excellent. Family doing fine, and I can live vicariously thru them and the grandkids. Age here is 78 and I am already loo...

Re: How long can a fellow do this?

Aha!! I just returned from 3 weeks in Wisconsin. First thing i will say is that I never found it necessary to be more than 16 feet up. I also use the HSS and like the security I think it provides.

Outstanding Customer Care

I want to take the opportunity to thank Excalibur and specifically Danny Miller of Sardis Oh.

Their response to a problem on my ExoMag was outstanding. It proves once more why Excalibur remains the best crossbow.

Thanks again guys>

Exomag 200#limb

I just got back from hunting Wisconsin for two weeks Not a very acceptable year but I still got out and sat in nature. Anyway as I unpacked my bow and started to reassemble it I noticed that one of the limbs appears to have a strip that appears as delamination. Where do I go from here. Probably will...

need some advice

Some sage advice folks. A little more info. I live in Florida, I hunt with my brother[-in-law in Wisconsin. That allows my wife to spend time with her sister. The 4000 mile trip is a little misleading since last year I flew into Minn/St Paul so the drive distance was only 200 miles and that sure mad...
