Re: Awesome!

I'm wondering if they are going to make the Bare Bones Bow available?
All the sites I've looked at only have "The Package".

Wondering...

Awesome!

Just got my ExoMax dressed the way I like, and they had to come up with this: http://www.excaliburcrossbow.com/catalog/crossbow/matrix_380_xtra Looking Damn GOOD! :twisted: So now I'm faced with another decision: keep the Exomax and get this one too. Or .... OK, not much a decision I guess. :roll: T...

Re: Broadhead Questions

Many Thanks for all the replies & advice Folks! I discussed this matter with a Professional Hunter Buddy of mine from South Africa. He has hosted many bow hunts, and gave a huge Thumbs Up to the Spitfire Maxx broadheads. He noted that with over 40 animals taken with that broadhead on hunts he h...

Re: Upgrading Optics

Any one who is shooting the leupold vx 1-4x How would you rate it for light gathering capabilities with it being a 20mm objective as opposed to the 32 or 40 mm objectives of the varizone lumizone or shadow zone? Used to have one of the 20mm Leopolds on my 22. Didn't much like the poor light gatheri...

Re: sad to see it end

This time of year always leaves me a little morose. :( Had a FUN and Action-Filled season, and was tagged out a week before it ends here on The Rock . Many Buddies still chasing, and I've received many calls to join them. Thought about that, but I've already taken a decent handful of Young Guns out ...

Re: Review - HHA Optimizer Speed Dial

There was another more recent thread on this... snoop around the forum. True That VixChix. :wink: But ... This is just the kind of report I was looking for. I plan on doing a LOT of target shooting between now and next hunting season, and have been strongly considering switching out my optic set-up...

Re: Broadhead Questions

Thanks VixenMaster. Given your most excellent results that is good advice.

Had another suggest Grim Reapers and insists they are "the only way to go".

Getting Information Overloaded at this point...
Making it tough for me to sort this one out!! :shock:

Re: Broadhead Questions

Thanks for the responses thus far folks! Appreciated! :D As noted, I did consider the Slick Tricks simply because my Partner enjoyed such success with them. And I do believe they will fly fine from the Exomax given the 6 degree helical Big John was so kind as to install the blazer vanes with. That s...

Broadhead Questions

Following this season's successful hunts, I find myself now searching for a new broadhead. In short, I was rather unimpressed by the Boltcutters this season. Yes, they fly extremely close to my field tips of equivalent weight, and that I do Enjoy... But ... My Hunting Partner uses a 175 lb 10-Point ...

Re: 3 Species - One Season - One Bow

WOOPS! Damn near forget! I did say " Three Species " this season for the bow... Just a day or two before I wandered over to the mainland had me working an area reasonably close to town for one of three decent bucks in there. Snowing in the upper elevations that day, and super quiet for st...

Re: 3 Species - One Season - One Bow

Tagged out for mulies, we then set our sights on whitetails. Opening morning the next day found us a fair ways south, and sightings began almost immediately. From the signs, the trails had seen some awfully busy times from the last of the rifle hunters the week before, even most of the little known ...
