new hunter questions

Hello Forum People: This year will be my first year for deer hunting. Bow Season starts in GA in 5 weeks. Last year I spent 6-7 outings simply scouting with my GPS and topo maps.

Re: request for bowhunting advice

Hi Excalibur Bow-People... I've got one more question... this one about scent control of your Excalbur bow and its case.

request for bowhunting advice

Right vs left helical fletching

Hi Excalbur Community: :D I've got an Equinox and the Easton Firebolts seem to have veins that are " left helical " oriented: looking down the shaft from the rear nock, the rear wide part of the vein is offset slightly to the right, relative to the top narrow part of the vein, which is off...
