  1. Bow Porn

    Scorpyd Ventilator this year. Hoping my shoulder will get better so I can use my Bowtech General next year.
  2. Recommended Cross bow for beginner

    Or keep it up and then you don’t have to worry about keeping it down in the future...:bolt:
  3. Recommended Cross bow for beginner

    The Excaliburs are traditional recurve style limbs, so yes, they are simple and easy to deal with. I can change strings on my Scorpyd, but it is definitely more complex with more to go wrong. Without a limb press I could not change the cables, etc. The Excalibur comes with a special string...
  4. Recommended Cross bow for beginner

    Same model I had. Great bow. I think that is what I sold mine for couple years ago. They seem to be pretty bulletproof. In my experience they are LOUD. At least mine was in comparison to others I had experience with. And most crossbows seem. I had noisier than a premium regular bow. Easy...
  5. Recommended Cross bow for beginner

    There is an Exomax on here. That is the model that had served me well. I believe Comanche is now still killing deer with it.
  6. Best bow for 500$?

    Absolutely. I have purchased a Bowtech bow and a Scorpyd crossbow from folks there. I doubt you are going to miss out on much regarding technological advances if you only go 2-5 years old. Probably could go older than that but I’m not a bow expert. Now if you are looking for a 40 year old...
  7. Best bow for 500$?

    Bows don’t hold their value well at all. Have you considered a nice used one? You can find a lightly used high-end model for much less than a new entry level 2nd tier bow. Lots of guys spend big bucks on a fancy new high dollar bow and then shoot it a few times a year, carry it in the woods...
  8. Thoughts on crossbows

    I used to only hunt with a bow and finally got a crossbow several years ago. I've had on and off shoulder problems and this year I may only get to hunt with the crossbow. I have no problem with crossbows being used during bow season but there is no doubt in my mind that it's exponentionaly...
  9. Let's talk Mechanical Broadheads

    I guess one thing I'll add is that, yes, I have bent blades. Never had any break and never had any fail to make a massive wide cut all the way through. I've heard some of the complaints mention the bent blades or having to replace them. I guess I have a different take on it than others. I...
  10. Let's talk Mechanical Broadheads

    I've had great success with Rage 2 blade in my bow and crossbow. Though you will find plenty of people who swear they are crap and lost game... I've passed through heavy bone with no problem though and they leave a massive wound.
  11. crossbow advice

    I have an Excalibur ExoMax. Very happy with it. Extremely accurate. Much noisier than a bow... Two good friends have Ten Point. Just as noisy. Same accuracy. They do have a better trigger. I suspect one of the main reasons is because the sear is holding half the weight of the recurve.
  12. broadheads

    2 blade Rage have worked great for me. Held up well even when hitting big bones and make an unbelievable cut. I shot a deer last year coming straight at me. Went in her chest right under the neck and exited through the rear flank. Also like that they fly just like a field point. I haven't...
  13. Anchor sight

    I was looking at the Hindsight online the other day. Looks like lots of options out there. Might even try a holosight one of these days. I found and ordered a used Anchor Sight last night. Hopefully it will help. I cant believe season starts already next week. Too blasted hot.
  14. Anchor sight

    Anyone have one or tried one before? Peep sights don't really work for me and while I've got a pretty consistent anchor point I thought I might try one to help tighten up the groups. I've tried a kisser button before and I can put them right on top of each other with one but I've also had them...
  15. What bows are you guys using this year??

    Did you decide not to sell or do/did you have more than one? I've got to shoot one of those some day. Sure get rave reviews.
  16. What bows are you guys using this year??

    Absolutely. It does.
  17. What bows are you guys using this year??

    I've got a brand new 08 Bowtech General on the way. Found a great deal from a guy who had some new old stock still on the shelf and I couldn't resist trying something new. Should be here early next week. I got back in to bow hunting last year and moved up from a 20 year old Browning to a Fred...
