Re: Stupid hunting rules our states have

One of the dumbest rules in PA is that crows are only legal to shoot on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays.

Re: Rifle scopes on xbows

I used a Leupold 1-4x20 shotgun scope on a crossbow for five years without any problem.

Re: Aluminum arras???

That is what I use. I shot three deer and a bear with the same arrow, just changed broadheads, but the bear bent the arrow. It is done now.

Re: WIFE IS NAILING ME TO WALL

When my wife asks me why I needed something I bought, I just say that "need" had nothing to do with it.

Re: Why did you buy an X-bow?

I got my first crossbow in 2009, right after having my right shoulder replaced.

Now, I like hunting with a crossbow better than with anything else.

I got my first bear ever this year with my Equinox, 2219 aluminum arrow and Spitfire Maxx 100 broadhead. Bear was 259# dressed and only went 20 yards.

Re: The New Crossbow Fletching Nock Adapter

I have used a 38 Special brass casing for an adapter.
Just grind two notches on the edge of the rim accross from each other.
I use 2219 aluminum arrows.
I don't know if they would be tight enough on carbon arrows.
I think I sized the casing so it would be tight.
I use a JoJan fletching tool.

Re: Rifle scope on a crossbow

I have a Leupold 1-4x20 shotgun scope with heavy duplex on one of my crossbows. I sight the crosshair at 20 yards and adjust the power ring so the top of the duplex post is on at 30 yards.
