I use excalibur firebolts.

Early in the Summer, one shot was missed at the target during a practice session. I found the broken bolt in the wood - a clean break in the middle. I don't have much experience with carbon bolts to tell if this is normal situation.

Re: Reusable Hand Warmers

I have one given to me as a promotion.

They work but last only up to 15-30 min. You will need many of them in the field for a full days hunt.

The disposable ones last a few hours each and are more practical.

Re: VARIZONE FOGGED, NOW WHAT ?

I vaguely remember reading it somewhere that the Excalibur scopes have life time warranty.

Re: Anyone got an extra sting cocker??

A few of you mentioned that you attached the string cocker to the bow. I carry my string cocker along with a few other essential components in my fanny pack.

How do you attach the string cocker to the crossbow to make it safe?
