upgrades to bow before deer season?

I have a stock Vortex lite-stuff bow.

I am planning on getting the S5 system.

Anything else worth adding to make the bow quieter/ better for hunting?

Thanks!

Broadhead weights?

For some reason I was under the impression that all tips both field points and broadheads were supposed to be 150 grain on Excalibur bows.

I was just about to order some X-Act broadheads but I see they are only available in 100 grain.

Any thoughts or comments before I order?

Thanks!!

Lifetime warranty?

Do I need to save my receipts for the warranty? I bought two bows recently and I registered them online, but may have lost the receipts.

I shot way over the target on the first shot. (moved 8 clicks down) A little over on the second. (moved 6 clicks down) Touch...

Re: Vortex is in!! String alignment question?

Ok so what is meant by twists? I started shooting today without doing this.

Also will the arrow change it's flight pattern as it stretches and changes position?

Thanks for the help guys. I am new at this, but had a very successful day of shooting today.

Vortex is in!! String alignment question?

Hi all!

Got my Vortex in today!

Just curious if this is an acceptable string alignment. If not what is the best way to adjust it?

Thanks!

Re: Fill me in on the Axiom package

Lol calm down guys just a bit of sarcasm. All I meant was that I have read online that it was made of plastic as oppose to whatever metal the higher end models are made from.

Fill me in on the Axiom package

Hi all, first post here!! I am thinking of buying the Axiom package for my grandfather for this years bow season. I would like to get some users opinions on it. From my own research I have learned that the barrel is made of some type of inferior material, but it is still a product worthy of the bran...
