Re: distractd for one moment(graphic pics)

Well that'll buff right out :!: Hope it works out well for you shortly Red. Dang that had to hurt. I love the way the frontend of my Equinox is so wide & tall- makes for a solid grip and ensures that none of the little soldiers can reach the top of the rail. So knock on wood, so far so good. Be ...

Re: What Do Your Licenses Cost?

Lifetime 13-50 yrs old.........1620 CRAZY!!!! Lifetime 51-64 yrs old..........945 STILL CRAZY!!! Crazy?!! I'd be running to their office to pay!!! Say you pay when you're 18 y/o and you hit the dirt nap at 75, that's 57 years of possible hunting. So $1,620 / 57 = $28.42 per year! Considering the fa...

Re: What Do Your Licenses Cost?

In Québec, once you obtain your hunting-trapping liscence you're set for good - it is a Permanent card. Each time you pass a hunter's safety course for a specific category (firearm, xcrossbow, vertical bow and trapping), you automatically receive in the mail an updated card (granted that you've pass...

Re: looking for some american asistance

Was it a Flux Capacitor :mrgreen:

Or just a regular one?

Seriously though, a business that doesn't take Visa is a little odd. I would think that there is more than one dealer or distributor in all of Canada from who you could have ordered it from, but glad to see you got it worked out.

Re: looking for some american asistance

What are you looking for specifically? I may be going to the Ogdensburg, NY UPS Store in the next few weeks (not sure when exactly), but it would be an option for you to have it shipped there. That said, it's odd that a company wouldn't send something over the border via USPS, FedEx, UPS or another ...

In the same line as Keith's, a short article from Chuck Hawks on shooting uphill or downhill (not as well detailed though)

Raymond Hang in there and things will get better. Remember that one’s person ability to endure pain will differ greatly from one to another.

Re: Has someone got a weather machine

Been pretty darn mild here as well in the Ottawa region with less the 3 feet of snow.

But hey, climate warming is just a hoax right, so we got nothing to worry about!

Re: excalibur equinox

Excal's own Firebolts with their 150grains BoltCutter BHs make for a fast and heavy arrow. Used for Moose hunting only and that combo packs a heck of punch - well i prefer to see it as a heck of slice as a "punch" would be better reffered too with a 200grain 300remmag bullet. Much like wit...

Re: Excalibur for elk

Welcome aboard Mark. As Elk's are pretty tough game, I'd go with Excal's Firebolts and their bolt cutter BH in as GeorgiaBoy previously said. Proven and reliable. There are many great products out there as well. You'll see when you practice with your xbow that your range will be shorten by quite a b...
