Re: 125 Grain Slick Tricks
I like the Slick Trick 150 gr Mags and on my 20" BEEs at 485 gr they have the same POI as field points out to my max of 40 yards. Arrow FOC Calculation FOC method that I use for my 20” BEEs (Note - FOC = Front of Center) 1. Total arrow length minus the BH/FP = 20.5” (nock to insert) 2. Balance ...

Re: Which Scope
Update... Well. I went with the Hawke XB (fixed 3x) As mentioned in the replies that I received, simplicity, rugged, and reliability, are the main thing... I do not need all the bells and whistles, a Scope with a name that I can not pronounce, or that costs 2 paychecks! This will be the first time,...

Re: Vortex or Not??
I believe that the Vortex is right up there with the Equinox and both are excellent model CBs, accurate and very rugged. This is mine with a Boo string.

Re: Trigger tec
FWIW, I put a Trigger Tech in my Equinox and could NOT tell any difference between it and the stock Excalibur trigger. YMMV

Re: drsturrip on a equinox?
This may help. I shortened my cocking rope so that I have to pull up on the string about 8" to set the 2nd hook on my Equinox. I have no knowledge of the drsturrip.

Re: Game Camera confusion
I have Reconyx, Browning & Stealth trail cams and Browning seem to be the best for the cost. All 3 models have failed to capture pics when I have been in the stand and watching the deer. Browning is also good with the AA batteries. I use a PC and/or iPad for viewing the pics and keep a supply of...

Re: Slick Trick Questions
The 150 gr Slick Trick Mags have the same POI as 150 gr field points on my 20" BEEs with a total weight at 485 gr & FOC of 18.9%. I put the NuFletch Ignitor nocks on also.

Re: The Crush Deer Cam
I loved to watch Anvil shake the feeder with his massive antlers to make the corn fall out. What a magnificent animal.

Re: S5 Suppressors
Came standard on my Equinox and I installed the S5s on the Vortex & Axiom. Makes checking BH easy peasy as I just set a 1/8" to 1/4" gap to the rubbers. Rotate the rubbers after several shots to prolong life. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Excalibur-S5-String-Suppression-System-1966/35266582...
