Crap! well Excal is known for this

Post by Adrian J Hare »

I just got these arrows 12 hours ago . The first time I shot all 6 and they were so tight I had a hard time to get ahold of them to pull them out. So thought I would shoot 3 out of the 6 at the 20 yard target the next time.

Yeah Adrian, I'd be disappointed with that 3 shot group. I would have expected a decent crossbow to robin-hood all 3 of the arrows. Still think you got a bumb deal. :lol: :lol: Glad to see you all is working out for you, next pics I want to see you and a big buck with a doublelung pass through shot.

You sure showed us you can shoot :) If you keep on shooting like this we'll find out how deep your pockets are :lol: Excellent shooting just don't shoot the same spot twice in a row .

We all learn really fast to shoot each arrow at a different target spot lest we spend all of our extra cash on new bolts.

I bet Crazyfarmer loves to see people do that and even recommends people shooting the same spot twice. :lol: :lol: :lol:

adrian i don't think your bow is as old as you originally thought. i would guess late nineties. the 165 i had that my dad has now is definitely older i think about 1993 it has an automatic safety on the side not the manual on the rear like yours and the current models , it also had the cast riser your riser is a bit newer .
