S-5 & Point Of Impact Question
Hello Folks, Today I received and installed the S-5 system on my Exomax. The S-5 is black, rather than the olive green I see in most of the online postings, but all else appears to be the same. To ensure proper clearance from the string to the rubber pads (I went with just shy of 1/8" to allow ...

Re: Ongoing Vancouver Island Bow Hunt Update
LOL! In some places that's true Derf. But only some places. Both myself and a handful of Buddies have been scouring the mountains searching for another Biggie or two. But here the bush is extremely dry (we're currently setting long-term records for the driest August through October period to date) ...

Ongoing Vancouver Island Bow Hunt Update
For a couple that have asked... Sat up to pattern the Blacktail Deer's movements again last evening. 41 does came along, followed by 5 bucks - the " Shooter " 4-point, a medium 4-point, 2 medium 3-points, a 2-point and a spike. 4 more late arrivals to the party came along that I could not ...

Re: LET ONE WALK!!!
Letting them walk is half the FUN! :mrgreen: Just last night I had 14 does feeding right in front of me - ranging from 22 yards out to 55. There's a Real Biggie in that neck of the woods, and with two full months of season yet to go, the Ladies are quite safe - for the time being... :twisted: Cheers...

Re: Let The Games Begin!!!
... whats the target made of curious? Thanks Fred, but most of the Credit goes to that Awesome Bow!! :mrgreen: I simply took an old burlap bag, stomped a bunch of old rags into it tightly, a couple shots of spray paint and Good To Go! :wink: It easily stops any arrow with a target point.

Re: Let The Games Begin!!!
She Shoots - She SCORES!! I finally got the opportunity to try out the new-to-me Exomax yesterday afternoon. Right from the get-go it needed very little tweaking to find dead-center at 20 yards: http://gallery.fishbc.com/albums/Ironnoggin/20_yards.jpg You can see from the picture I basically forgot...

Re: Let The Games Begin!!!
I've always read that wolverines have a bad attitude toward any other living creature, and I guess you'd agree. :lol: aYup! Amazing animal actually, very intelligent, usually downright secretive, and as TOUGH as anything out there. We had the occasion to watch one back a Barren Ground Grizzly off a...

Re: Let The Games Begin!!!
Is that a Wolverine in your pictures and what is the story behind that beautiful trophy? Hey & Hi Deerstalker, Thanks for the kind words! Appreciated!! NO WAY I could ever cock the Exomax without the cocking aid! Thankfully some of the few parts that still work on this aging body are my arms an...

Let The Games Begin!!!
For quite a few years I had given in to the realization that far too many shoulder injuries had taken their toll on this aging body, and that as a consequence it was extremely doubtful that I'd ever hunt with pointy sticks again. No way in hell could I draw my old compound to full draw, and certainl...
