Thank you guys, i knew i could count on you! :wink: , Peter P is correct, i was looking for clarification on comparison with new models that of course have moulded limbs. Thank you Digger for the specs, i have the same VIXEN you posted on your reply, that is what my son and i both shot at a 3D down ...

Hi everybody, i am curious about my XBows and i know quite a few people here have the answers to my questions. I have a carved limbs, black and grey camo VIXEN, bought it new quite a few years ago, i also have an EXOMAG, realtree camo, carved limbs bought some years ago as well, both still in great ...

I purchased one this season, Cabela's collapsible cart, somewhat heavy, brought home firrst spike, wheel broke while uloading off of ruck, probably my mistake ( Definetly) yet they shipped me a new wheel :lol: :lol: :lol: Now i took some time and $ to improve it, sawed off heavy rubber , solid, repl...

WOW, that was close, glad you made off sort of ok; need new boots too i bet. We've talked about this before at nausea, however i would really like to remind everyone that doesn't already do so ( First option should be discharge into DEER VITALS ) to carry a spare field tipped bolt and discharge into...

Done that a few times, defeats the saying that if you put ime in the bush you get your deer; i have taken quite a few over time, no trophies, but then again i want meat not trophies. Depends where you hunt and their moving patterns, i hear of a guy in my area that claims to know what cycle the deer ...

I hang mine from front legs, soon as i skin it i wipe it down with rags and large amounts of water ( i know, different opinions on that but i do it as soon as i get it in the garage, about an hour after shooting), cut the head off first off, that way when i start cutting the meat off the carcass i h...

I have to admit, it alll sounds very inventive and somewhat original, also bear in mind i have spent most of my working life in the food service industry& cooking. I have the outmost success with my ( boneless) venison that i butcher myself by ensuring the right cuts are used and cut to proper s...

I have hunted out of three different climbers, one of them the SUMMIT VIPER which i still use and i can't see myself getting a different one; easy to use, comfortable, safe and versatile. My son and i both have one; for those concerned with less bulk to pack i might recommend the SUMMIT BULLETT BACK...

Sumner, you may have something there, both about the 2nd 3rd .....shot etc, but with blades just installed? However i am not going to argue about it, all i want are straight flying bolts with broadheads on. The reason i went 4 blades Wasp was because of the similarity to SLICKTRICKS which weren't av...

Did some more shooting with the old VIXEN, 2 of three bolts were flying the same, the other way off, i ended up twiking DZ scope to match the two good ones and retired the third one temporarily ( Only need one good shot per deer right? ). Also shot WB out of EXOMAG, 2219's, not bad ranging in just a...

Thank you guys, the scope adjusments is what i meant with the amount of shots i had to take . along with the new bolts and W.Heads i also purchased a spin tester and they all spin true, straight as an arrow ( A little pun here ); i have sometime this morning before going in to work, i will take a fe...

Bought some WASP BOSS 4 BLADES, 100 GR, shop was out of SLICTRICK; tried to fine tune my VIXEN with new 2216 Allum, 18 " They are flying all over between 6" & 10 " apart, took me 10-15 shots to have a decent shot at 20 YDS. I used to shoot 3 BLADE wasp, no problem; my target point...

Very nice, thought i had the wrong site
Change is good, Daniele

I was going to jump in here both feet in the pail kind of thing......
but i re-thunk it.
Boy, could this start a real B........ing session about a lot subjects..or so i thought.

I noticed that smell with both my xbows, VIXEN an EXOMAG, always thought it was the string itself, yes it is more noticeable after a good waxing; somehow i thought the string fibres snapped with vibrations from the shot, hence producing a crack not unlike one coming from a whip's end with a sparkle ...
