Don't honestly know the exact numbers, but I've been crossbow hunting since 1999 or 2000 and usually get 2 a year with the crossbow.

This is first year with Xbow and 2nd yr. deer hunting. Took 2 last year with rifle; have taken 2 thus far this year with the Vortex. The Xbow is 10 times more fun!

count

Post by Big John »

On my fourth Excal bow now, All have taken Deer each year. I imagine the best way to count would be to look in the photo album's eh? :)
I'm thinking with Crossbow's about, nine or ten, the rest with guns.
My favourite Excal was the exomag I sold to Desertrat on here. That bow was a killer bow! It knew all by itself when to shoot and where. If your reading this desertrat and you ever want to sell it back , you know how to reach me. :wink: :) Just kidding, I hope it is working out good for you. :)

Been hunting with xbows since xcal was started. Had a slow start since my original two bows were barnets and they really sucked. Started harvesting with a wolverine and the limbs had a layer separation problem due to some bad resin. I called xcalibur and was very well looked after. That was near 20 years ago and Bill was just as amazing then as a buisnessman as he continues to be. Had 3 xcals since and have settled for a paradox, I really like it and it seems to do me well in return. I am in the low 20's on deer overall and got a nasty big tom turkey with it as well.

Thank god for excalibur and the money to buy tags!

This is my first year with the xbow and I have killed 1 doe with it so far (see the "Bossy must die!" thread). Last year was my first full season deer hunting and I killed one buck with the rifle. Ya'll don't think 39 years old was too young to get started hunting do you? :)

I've been xbow hunting (Exomag) for three years now and thus far took:

1 dollar (I mean buck) and 1 doe (working on my 2nd buck this weekend) :D

I agree with the poster that says "it's alot more fun with an xbow" I will be turkey hunitng in 08 with my xbow.

FYI I fletch my own bolts (2216's) and use a 100g broadhead.
