Love & hate my new Equinox

Just fired the first 10 rounds through my new bow to get it zeroed. It is truly one kick a$$ machine.My only gripe so far,I came to this sport after 40 years of rifle hunting. All of my guns have custom triggers & shoot smooth as a new born baby's behind. Will shoot 75-100 more bolts and see if ...

Re: Scope

Just mounted my Twilight on my new Equinox today. The clarity looks great,waiting on dusk to see what it looks like in low light conditions. Can't wait to shoot it,waiting on Danny Miller to ship me my gold tips. Will let you know in a few days how I like it.

Re: I am one proud dad today

congrats to your son.I am sure he is hooked now. I started deer hunting when I was about his age but didn't get into turkey hunting until I was 40. I love deer hunting but I tell people all the time, if I could only pick one,turkey hunting would win hands down. Nothing like getting a big tom strutti...

Re: Looking into getting a climbing tree stand

Another vote for the Summit. I use the Summit 180. It gives you the option of facing towards the tree or away from the tree. I am just getting in to bow hunting so I can't say how it is for that yet. It's a great stand for rifle hunting. I like the 180 because you sit down in the seat while climbing...

NAP SPITFIRE EDGE

Do any of you forum members shoot this head. I am trying to decide on which head to shoot on my new Equinox. I am new to bow hunting and it seems that every manufacturer claims there head is the best. Any advice is much appreciated.

crossbow targets

Just purchased my first ever bow of any type (excalibur equinox). I need to buy a target for field tips & broadheads. Do I need 2 targets or is there a single target that will work for both heads.
