PM Outbox

When you send a PM (Personal Message) does it stay in the outbox for a day or two?

I sent a PM twice and both are sitting in the outbox and not moving to the sent messages.

Thanks.

Re: Ibex has just been ordered. I have a few questions

On a 175#er, I think the S5 would suffice......... Novaboy - I agree with awshucks ... if you want to add to your bow the S5 will do what you need - great insurance. My Ibex came with the aluminum mainframe; let us know how you like the new synthetic mainframe. Here are two videos of Excaliburs bei...

Re: Ibex has just been ordered. I have a few questions

Novaboy, Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your Ibex. I too just got an Ibex (the end of August) and am enjoying it immensely. Dissipator Bars and S5 are not needed; but I have both on my Ibex. :lol: My Ibex came with the dissipator bars and I added the S5 as an accessory. If you wanted to...

I just joined the club myself recently. :wink:

Glad your all right - hopefully, neither of us has a repeat performance.

All the best.

I called my wife over and her exact words were, "Wow - that's a big doe". :lol: A quick explanation and she now knows that is a big buck. Congratulations on a beautiful and boutiful buck. All the best.

Re: Arrow Epiphany - Pictures

Masboy - thank you for the kind words, and warning. My nephew and I messed up three arrows (two arrows had one of the three vanes nocked off and my nephew nicked the nock and we have to replace that part). Picked up some of the targets you were using when I came down to shoot. Next time, targets are...

Excel Dacron - Colors ?

The serving on my Excel string broke and while waiting for it to be re-served picked up a new Excel Dacron Endless Loop String, (still a newbie and not ready to step up to a Flemish. :lol: ) The new string is brownish gold and black. The original string on the Ibex I got back in August was green and...

Re: Fletching Jigs - Degrees ?

Thanks for remembering my condition. I use a respirator and work in a room with two windows for a crossbreeze. An industrial fan in the downwind-of-bench window helps keep the air moving. Frustrating condition, but then I see others with much worse and realize how fortunate I am. All the best and th...

Re: Newbie asks

Rudolph, Welcome to the forum and the Excalibur family. I just got my first crossbow, an Ibex model, a few months back. I do not hunt personally so I cannot comment on your first question. However, the string question - I just shot the crossbow a lot and it when the string stretched twisted the stri...

Fletching Jigs - Degrees ?

I have been reading some of the back posts regarding fletching jigs. Some mention the amount of degrees a jig glues the vanes on: Straight, 1 degree, 2 degree, etc. Arizona EZ Bolt Bitzneburger Bohning Jo Jan etc. Do the above brands have similar twists/degrees ? Is there a degree that works best ? ...
