Good luck. That is something I fear I am going to need down the line. That is why I got into crossbow from compound. What is your shoulder problem: torn rotator cuff or arthritic joint? Interested in seeing how you do. Speedy recovery. Wayne

Rage 2-blade and Ground Blind Mesh Shooting

Anyone have any experience with shooting the Rage 2-blade through a Ground Blind Mesh Window? How far did you shoot and how accurate was it? Did the blades deploy at the mesh? Thanks. Wayne

Thanks for all the advise. At least I now realize that it is not as easy as some would have you believe. I have no problem with perseverence and practice - I was starting to wonder if there was something wrong with me or if people were just grossly exaggerating. Sounded like you slop a little paste ...

Hey Griz:

What is the name of that file exactly and can you get one at the local hardware store? How would I ask for it and describe it so the salesperson would know exactly what I needed? Thanks, Wayne
