Re: UPDATE: Assassin 400 TD Issues Fixed

Chester, now you know how to release it. Clear advice given by "Canuck" Janesy. But you probably would like it to not keep happening, so you don't have to release it this way. Try making sure you pull back all the way, and keep the trigger held back for a full second after you shoot. I thi...

what camo is that on the limbs? hard to tell but looks neat!
That's Kryptek Raid pattern. Micro 335 Raid used it and so did the original dealer only version of the Axe 340. Google image search Excalibur Kryptek Raid and you'll see all sorts of views of them. Sweet look.

Re: 2023 East Texas Crossbow Buck

Nice work! Offspring and Katana were very underrated crossbows.

Re: I swore I wouldn't....

Nice of Excal to make use of those bottomland stocks from the Wolverines. Still looks good with black grip panels. I found the dealer online that is selling them ;)

Re: Scope

What you're observing is parallax. My Tact 100 has bad parallax at any distance. Gotta really keep eye alignment perfect to be able to shoot consistently with it. My Hawke and Vortex scopes have much more forgiving parallax.

Freezer Queen and a lesson learned

My wife and I, and my parents, and the brother I hunt the most with all ran out of venison earlier than planned a few months ago. So we had it set that we were going to put a doe in the freezer the first chance we had this fall. Season opened yesterday in MN, and we got out for the first sit in the ...

Re: Excalibur Beacon Illuminated Nock

When setting up my bro's arrows for the Strykro, I went with the Beacons. After handling them enough, and now shooting with them plenty, I now know they are what I'll be buying the next time. Biggest reason I'm transitioning to them is the aluminum bushing is a lot better long term for the back of t...

Re: Vixenmaster-is Mike still around?

Mike goes by Blacktail there. Not bent limb.

Posts strings there every now and then: https://www.crossbownation.com/threads/micro-string-8190.135694/#post-1727646

I literally had a conversation with Mike 2 days ago. Reach out to him, if you need his number let me know and I can get it.

Hi all…..anyone know if Mike Vixenmaster is still around?

I tried his phone number and it seems disconnected….

….if he is, does anyone have his contact info?
Pretty sure he moved recently. My most recent communication with him was messaging on crossbownation.

Re: Hunting camera

Tactacam does have a mount to fit a one-inch diameter scope tube, don't they? I don't know if I would use their under the barrel mount option on my rifles unless ya'll show me the error of my ways. I use a one-piece scope mount, so I don't have rails on my rifles. I know they have a mount that will...
