I agree with Flinthead on wishing for a 150 grain mechanical from Excalibur.Not really finding a 150 grain mechanical has pretty much kept me shooting the 150 grain fixed blade Bolt Cutters on my aluminum arrows.Every time I shop in person at the local big box stores,all I can find are mechanicals i...

I'm using Eastons 2219 20" arrows with a 150 grain Excalibur Bolt Cutter Braodhead.I'm shooting these out of an Axiom at 50 yards and penetration is up to the fletching when shooting into a Mckenzie Block Target.I'm very satisfied with that type of performance.Never had any trouble with pass th...

I shoot Easton aluminum arrows(2219) 20" length with 150 grain Bolt Cutters.Have shot out to 50 yards and hit bullseye size of a dixie cup.I use the aluminum arrows for the extreme penetration and added weight for the 150 grain bolt cutter.The only draw back is once you have sighted in using th...

I agree with Fredd,however,I put a pumpkin out in the open approx. 20 yards from my stand and pour vanilla extract on the pumpkin.The orange pumpkin is a visual attractant for them and when they smell the vanilla extract on the pumpkin,they get all upset/excited and become distracted while jumping a...

I always shoot from a seated position resting my elbow that holds the forearm of the bow on my knee.Even when hunting from a tree stand I always shoot while sitting.Shooting from a standing position would require me to be leaning against a tree for support and hiding my body to keep from spooking th...

I had a bad experience with my first shot with a Lumenock arrow.Bought the Burt Coyote arrows with the nock already installed.First shot resulted in a semi dry fire.The arrow split in half but stayed as one piece.Apparently when I loaded my arrow,the cock vane did not sit completely flush with the r...

If you're taking orders,I'll take a pair also.No rush just let me/us know...thanks.

On the same subject,I went back to the same Gander Mountain the next day to have fire sights put on the muzzle loader.The firearms repair person told me he wasn't sure if he could have the sights put on by the time muzzle loader season opened(2 days later).When I told him I would go some where else,...

Went to the local Gander Mountain to purchase a muzzle loader for my nephew.Only muzzle loader available was the display muzzle loader.Tried to talk the salesman into letting me buy the display muzzle loader.He bent over backwards refusing to sell it,stating if he sold it no one would be able to see...

1 with my Axiom SMF.

More than likely the home made harness was a strap/belt that he wore around his waist and attached to the tree.When he fell from his stand the belt/strap tightened around his waist cutting off circulation resulting in suffication.Just my guess.The waist belt/strap type harness was standard since the...

I personally use the Excalibur 150grain Bolt Cutters(fixed blade).I use these on an aluminum arrow,Easton(2219).I'm not shooting for speed since all my shots are 20 yards max.I get pass through on all my shots.The aluminum arrows with a 150grain broadhead blows through any foam targets I use.The arr...

I have the Garrett Ace Model 150.Paid $152 on Ebay free shipping also came with a free pair of stereo head phones which plug into the locator.Found my arrow I was looking for at the outdoor archery range.Also found 7-10 additional arrows that I couldn't use with my bow.I was only searching the 20 ya...
