Excalibur Crossbow Forum

Just a newbie question (so don't yell) but why not just buy a new box of bolts? For you experts what does making your own bolts with your own fletching etc. do for accuracy etc.? I used to be a big reloader for rifle and shotgun so I understand there are some advantgaes but it seems Excalibur has it...

Well I saw a big buck cross the road about half a mile from our house last thursday about 4:00 PM, so still bright and legal to hunt. Although this is farm country where I live. So a little different, than where I own another farm( "in the real bush farm" as I call it, these deer get littl...

Hi
Best way I can think of is in my stomach LOL. We just freeze in good vacuum freezer packs good for a year or more but they never last that long.

Thanks for the advice, fellow guys/ girls.

To those that have responded thanks. I like the joking around, it is all good for a laugh which we all need, one should not take ones self or life too seriously all the time.

Hi Mike, Not sure what following me around the forum means? I am not a complainer or acknowledged expert on anything. Just asking some questions about crossbow hunting. Have many years under my belt with a rifle. Are you just trying to bug me if so thanks. I like to be bugged and a good ribbing does...

Hi I just checked the stats on the Vixen II it is not much lighter or smaller than an equinox? maybe the original was? I am not here to start a war about what is better like they do on some forums was just asking.

Ok, you have anwered my question somewhat. Just like i shoot a .300 win mag faster and less trajectory, so I guess the equinox appealed and like with the .300 used to the extra weight, I have blinds that room is not an issue so all is good, in the end then i guess it is preference. Thanks

Hi

Just noticed that lot of the hunters on the forum use the smaller crossbows? Is there a reason for this other than cost? New to the game just wondering? Is there a reason? are they better?

New to the forum but just noting how many new crossbow users by Excalibur, obviously they are much easier to use more accurate and an all round better bow than any compound crossbow.

"Thanks was pretty exciting hunt with a bow.

This is an account I sent to my buddy. Hey Grandpa Put in a few hours bow hunting in my stands. Went out Sunday morning about 6:50 am (not hillbilly time at 6:50 pm) and Sandy said you are going to freeze why are you going out. I said well you never know it only takes two minutes sometimes, so I wil...

Hi, thinking of making my own sausage, salami/pepperttes etc. (yes, i have many years of butchering deer). Just need to know any suggestions on a brand or type of machine that is best (price is not necessarily an option, prefer to spend for a good machine.)

Mike a good fixed blade head for the Equinox is a Slick trick crossbow trick in 175 grain. I use them and love them. http://www.slicktrick.net/ Congrats on the new bow you made the correct choice you will be able to do all the maintenance yourself in the field if need be avoiding the high cost of b...

Hi

Like I said in an ealrier post, new to crossbow hunting. Live in Ontario. I see a lot of US people on the forum which is great. Is it just becouse you like excalibur or is this just a good crossbow site? Seems to have a lot of action on it. Good luck everyone.
