Excalibur Crossbow Forum

2nd weekend hunting got my 2nd kill. I moved my groundblind yesterday to what seemed like a better location. Right before nightfall I saw a really large buck. It was only there for a second and gone. I didnt have a chance to even raise my crossbow. I was pretty pumped about going out this morning. I...

Thanks for all your input. Looks like there are several to choose from.

Did you go with a heavier arrow to compensate for the lighter broadhead?

I have an Exocet 200, a Compound bow and a Recurve bow. I am trying to find a broadhead that will work for all 3. Has anyone used the 100 grain Montec G5 on thier crossbow? If so what arrow are you using?

Great story!!! Was it a whitetail or mule deer? I would like to see that if you have a pic. I found a pretty beat down game trail pretty close to my stand. I'm hoping one like you describe comes out in front of me this season. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the link!

That's Awesome! I saw alot of Turkey last year, but haven't seen any so far this year. I have my fingers crossed.

Does anyone have a set of factory Exocet 200 Iron Sights they would like to get rid of? My crossbow came with a scope and I didnt get the factory sights.

I would like to hear of everyones hunting successes this season and pics if you have them. I will go first. Opening season was last weekend. I have about 8 nice Whitetail bucks showing up on my game cam over the last 3 weeks. I spotted an 8 point first day out but spooked it while I was moving out o...

I only got to hunt with my exocet two weekends last year, but I had two complete pass thru's on deer. The only problems I had were with hogs. The carbon arrows were not penetrating. Once I switched to the heavier aluminum arrows I was passing thru hogs as well.

I feel your pain Luddy, I'm chompin at the bit!!! I only got to use my exocet twice last year. I have 18 hunting days planned this year and I'm eager to get started! IS IT FRIDAY YET???

A Scorpion flashlight works great, its similar to a surefire but half the cost. You can get them at BassPro for about $40.

Its pretty standard to have at least 50 acres per person, but the lease we're on now set the limit at 8. We dont want more than 6. Being a new lease they aren't going to let anyone else hunt there until after our first deer season. Once season is over it shouldn't be a problem to get a couple of guy...

I read it on this forum about 3 days ago, but I dont remeber what search I was doing. It was talking about the string stopping prematurely and possibly damaging the limbs and the string. It seemed feasible to me that the string should travel somewhat past the scribed mark when delivering its energy ...
