Thanks, bought it used from a coworker of my brother in law. The guy gave me a case for the crossbow, and all the tools i need to change strings, extra strings. I got a plastic case with a dozen arrows, or bolts. A tool to fletch my own arrows! The guy let me shoot it in his driveway, into the garage. Had a nice set up too! He told me when I called to plan on being there a while because he wanted to make sure I knew how to use the crossbow correctly! Who does that? He made me change a string, shoot the bow, showed me how to set the brace height, all that stuff. He took off the cheek piece, and put it on the left side for me, he is a lefty I guess! After all that, he showed me how to fletch arrows, I did 4 of the ones in the kit! He gave me extra strings, a fletching tool, the crossbow of course, case, box for the arrows, and 12 arrows with field tips, and all the tools to change strings, a tube of wax, and 6 broadheads! He told me he was a member here, then told me I had to join to be in the club! He said he would check up on me too! I almost felt like I left my dad's house when I left! My brother in law talks about him all the time.
I don't know his nickname here, he said it was not important, but he would know mine! I got his cell phone number, and i know where he lives, he said that is enough to get what I need!
Anyway, I joined up, and hope to talk more with him.
