Re: Has Santa left any "strange lookin" packages yet?
Nothing under the tree for me. My Exocet was my birthday and Christmas present combined. I got it after my birthday, and before Christmas. Absolutely no complaints here though. Like a little kid with it everyday. Now my daughter wants one too! Maybe next Christmas.

Re: press release
I'm interested in this. I've read were too many modifications are needed for the STS in order for it to fit correctly. What month does Excalibur usually intro. their new products?

Re: A better scope than the Varizone. Is it needed or wanted
Wabi, you're a no nonsense fella, and I respect the heck outa that. Obviously driven by experience and hard knock lessons. Those are the lessons best learned. At what range do you have your Leupold sighted at dead zero?

Re: More goats!!
Good job Missin! Nice harvest there. I for one really like the pictures. It really is pretty darn cool to see what type of game a fellow hunter on the other side of the globe is able to harvest. But sunburn and huntin just don't go together

Re: Vortex question
Hey liberty. I'm 40 yo, 5'9" and 190 lbs. No, the Vortex is not too much bow. I recently purchased an Exocet 200 which is the same bow as the Vortex, but with the traditional stock. Vortex has thumbhole, other than that they are the same bow. Very easy to cock with the rope cocker. I have tendo...

String slapping riser?
Time to tap into some of the vast knowledge and experience here :D I finally got to shoot my Exocet 200 today and get the scope sighted in. Awesome! I love it! Very accurate! I shot repeatedly at 20, 25, 30, 40 yards and had a blast. I probably shot 40 times or more. I'm without a doubt hooked. My q...

Re: Vortex or Exocet 200
Same bow. Different stock. Your personal decision now. I just bought an Exocet. I personally like that style stock. My personal opinion though.

If nothing else, you've stumbled across a really fine turkey feed. I counted around 19 turkeys in that picture!

Re: buck to doe ratio when to take does?
Unfortunately, hunters unwillingness to kill does in certain areas can cause in a relatively short period of time a huge imbalance in a deer heard. The more does the less opportunity to see that nice buck during rut also. No reluctance here to put does in the freezer. I've put three in there thus fa...

Re: shooting tips
New to the xbow, but I have far above average experience with long distance marksmanship with the high powered rifle. The technique should translate well because both have a forearm, stock and trigger assembly. The type of rest isn't that important as long as it is heavy and does not move. I know it...
