Excalibur Crossbow Forum

Can't I be a good hunter who wants a fast bow? :cry: Why must you make me choose? :roll: :twisted: The closest wild deer I've ever had was about 3 feet from one of my brush blinds. I keep thinking one will get close enough to touch, but not yet. I'm usually in the trees this time of year anyways. I ...

Well, this thread has certainly took a turn since I first read it! Guess that's what I get for not following threads! I also feel sorry for BigNasty. Don't know the real reason he did it nor do I care. But whatever the reason, I hope he gets any personal problems in his life that would cause someone...

That's a nice a#% on that deer! I envision a lot of nice roasts for the smoker!

Between you and Vixenmaster, there'll be no deer left in the woods!

Congrats on a pair of mighty fine lookin' Bucks!!!

Dang, that looks like a nice fat one! The deer, not you...

Congrats on doing a good job on a good deer!

This guy does pretty well using a crossbow to take squirrels.

Congrats on a nice Missouri Ridge Runner!!

And I use to smoke on stand as well. I used to say that a cigarette and cup of coffee was the best scent you could use because as soon as I lit up and poured a cup of coffee, the deer would show up

So you're sayin' Ms. Vixen is a travelin' gal?

Congrats on a nice and fat Forkie!

He's not really that big. I would have let him walk and get bigger next year or the year after... YEAH RIGHT!!! :shock: THAT'S A HONKER OF A BUCK! I'd fallen out of my treestand if something like that walked by. Great shot and recover...sorry for the ribbin' above, it comes with the territory... :D

Congrats on stayin' the course. Funny that after you get a deer down, you don't remember all those hours you put in gettin' him! That's the way it goes!

Just thought of a feeder plan I've seen in the past. A 5 gallon plastic bucket with a hole in the center of the bottom and a dowel rod with a pin or nail through it to act as a stop/pivot in the hole. The hole (I'm guessing here) is probably 1 1/2 - 2" diameter and the dowel is an old mop/broo...

For the record, I don't use decoys and never have!!!! Okay, I do for Turkeys, Geese, Squirrels and Ducks, but not deer. Now are you happy?

OT - Has anyone heard that Randy Travis song "Digging Up Bones"? Cool song huh?

What setup are you using? My arrow speed out of my Axiom is about 287 fps and I haven't had this issue, including the first Doe I shot this year at 53 yards. (it was a little further back than what I liked though) Have you tried quieting your bow down with the STS system, string silencers, etc? Gran...

Wow!! That is one serious STUD of a BUCK!!! Congrats to you!

I guess you have something against the best bow Excalibur ever made...the Original Axiom? That's my vote!
