I could also aim a couple inches low at 30 usiing the 30 yard mark in the scope since its only a couple inches high OR i could resight i...

EXOCET, SIGHTING IN?
I have my Exocet shooting great! I have it sighted at 20 yards. At 30 yards using the 20 yard crosshairs I seem to be about 4/12 inches low. Does this sound about right using Carbon Bolts? Using the 30 yard scope mark It hits 1/12 to 2 inches high at 30 yards.. Seems to me the best thing to do is ju...

Bill t's Target
I noticed on another post that Bill T. stated that he sold a foam block target that works well. Does anyone have one of these? Will they stop broadheads?

My New Exocet!
I got my new Exocet this past monday with the Scope package. I have been simply Drilling with field point all week. Today I broke out the Boss Broadheads that came with it. They seem to be hitting just like my field points. That really excites me too. I have only shot them out to 20 yards. I will ch...

FLETCHING QUESTION
OK gUYS, I have been doing my own fleching for years with a compound. Now that I have an Exocet I want to continue. I didnt think about it till I got out My Bitzenbuurger and realized there are no nocks on the Bolts to turn the arrows in the jig. How do I do it?

SIGHTS
Hey guys, I have about decided on the Exocet. Have not made up my mind if I will get a scope or not. I have Shot a compound all these years with a peep so it shouldnt be any different i would assume. I was wondering if I decide to shoot with the Fiber optic Pin, how should I sight in? If I sight in ...

Shakky, is the problem penetration with the Vixen vs the Exocet ? Or is the problem that a Crossbow makes so much noise you need as much speed as possible to keep the animal from dropping. The reason I ask is the statement you made about what animal I would be hunting. I will be hunting Deer and Wil...

I can cock the exocet but I wouldnt call it a snap by any means. I am also thinking that since I aint getting any younger I dont figure cocking it is gonna get any easier either. The pro shop here doesnt have a Vixen in stock so if I get one they will have to order it. I havent made my decision yet ...

What is the speed with the carbons that come with the kit? I would really rather have the Vixen because of being able to cock it easier but I dont want to make that decision if the exocet would be better. Its hard to get the right answer on the forums because I know everyone has there favorites. If ...

VIXEN SPEED
What is the speed of the Vixen when shot with the arrows that come in the Kit? The web site says 285 fps. Is this accurate? My mathews doesnt shoot that fast and it is plenty for any Big game animal. The reason I am asking is that I see where some say on the Forums that the vixen is good for certain...

I ordered a set for one of my Vioers. They dont fit at the right angle on the older version stands. If you will notice, Summit has a curve in the Bar they are attached to on this years models. They would work on the older models but I dont care for them. If you buy a this years model the would proba...
