Condolences...

...to my Canadian friends. Looks like your fine Country will soon be inundated with a wave of immigrants - mostly from the vicinity of Hollywood! :mrgreen:

Re: Rubber Baby Buggy Bumpers

They're included with the "bumpers", tiny screws in a tiny ziplock bag.
There are threaded holes on the underside of the riser, beneath the holes that the bumpers slide into.

Re: Rubber Baby Buggy Bumpers

Easy-Peasy. Even I couldn't make a mess of that installation. :lol:

Re: Crossbows loosing poundage over time

The bow tech at my local archery shop told me his dad kept his Excalibur strung for five years with no loss in poundage. I wouldn't go to such an extreme. I keep mine unstrung through the summer months. Too much heat and too many chiggers at my near-by WMA range! :cry:

Re: Quiver rattles

My wife got a "factory reconditioned" Axiom this year - her first bow. The quiver hood was a little loose and rattled. I replaced it with a Kwickee Kwiver 4-arrow crossbow quiver. It's a very solid, well made unit. No surprise, though. I've been a fan of kwickee quivers for 35 years.

Re: What ya got for Binoculars?

I won a pair of Leupold Rogue compact binocs last year at Bass Pro.
Not the best, but the price was right. :wink:

Re: Deer Crossing Archery?

Thanks for the advice. I have read a lot of positive reviews of Zombie Slayers. I'll give them a look. Where in The Peoples Republic of NJ do you call home JJ? Anthony' :) South of Millville, Cumberland County. If you're familiar with the N.J. Motorsports Park, I'm about a mile away. Makes for some...

Deer Crossing Archery?

Any Excalibur owners here shooting DCA arrows? I bought a dozen when I was shooting a (vertical) compound, and was impressed with the quality and the low price.

Re: In pursuit of quiet...

A pair of Excalibur string suppressors, or Danny Miller's bumpers are a quick, easy and relatively inexpensive way to deaden some of the vibration. So far, that's all I've done to my 355, "Mr. Scary".

Re: New bow advice?

I've owned my Matrix 355 for about eight months now, without one second of "buyers remorse". You could never go wrong with one.

Re: Hunting Knives

I have a big collection of knives (mostly older Buck fixed-blade models), but it seems I always reach for my old reliable Cold Steel Master Hunter, in Carbon V steel. It has become a trusted friend, and locks into its sheath so securely, I know it'll always be there.

Re: Ghost blind question

Thanks for the generous offer, Anthony, but I'm way down in swamps of Cumberland County. I do appreciate it, though. :D Jeff ...how far are you away from Point Pleasant JJ?....I do venture down to my brother in laws house a few times a year and would gladly bring it with me and could even meet you?...

Re: ADF success story

Yeah, I had some "ADF success stories" yesterday :oops: . Had three misfires before I discovered that the arrow retainer spring wasn't retaining the arrows! Lowering the "muzzle" anywhere beyond horizontal caused the arrows to slide forward. I don't know why I didn't notice this ...
