You snooze you loose!

Couldn't get out over the weekend but look at what showed up at my blind yesterday morning at 7:16am. I got the card out this afternoon. The picture looks dark but this is in a trail through a thick cedar bush.

i think if it was newer then 02 it would also have db bars along with the machined riser
I just noticed that. Mine has both a cast riser and db bars. I think mine was an 02 Exocet Deluxe.

Given the mag tips and cast riser it is likely an 01 or 02 Exocet 175. I have the identical bow.

I had no idea what an anti hunter was until I moved to Ontario. When the topic is brought up at work I am in the minority with only two hunters in an office of fifty plus people. Growing up in rural Nova Scotia, it was a right of passage and I did not know a single family where there was not at leas...

Growing up in Nova Scotia, we had just about everything preserved in salt, fish, beef, moose, venison, you name it. It turns out great and makes for the main ingredient toa wonderful Atlantic Boiled Dinner.

Keep the liquid refreshments close at hand.

I use a bit of jig a loo on the rope so it slides across the back of the frame better and causes less drag. I also make sure the wheels in the pullies are turning properly.

I saw her that day using the Ibex of Boo's. She had a smile on her face then but it will be nothing like the smile she will have as she leaves the house at 5am on her first hunt with her very own bow.

Congrats on 12 and have a great day.

I wished I could have taken credit for that but as Don has posted the directions came from the FAQ's on the Excalibur main sight.

Very simple to do and a great work out for the one arm. I have done sessions of 40 to 50 shots without any problems.

I grew up in Guysborough County and I remember some very large bodied animals taken down there. One buck in particular was taken by my uncle that weighed over 200lbs dressed and only had a tiny eight point rack.
