Re: 18 inch arrows effect on accuracy with a Phoenix ?
Thanks for the reply's ppl. Only way to know for sure is to get out and try it as 8pt said. Was a bit worried that 18 inch wouldnt work good at all but hearing that Longbow Joe shoot 19 for ex without trouble makes me feel much better about trying it. Good Point about the safety there Paul, I will g...

Re: Anybody else name their crossbow?
Just my 380. It is named Kayla in honour of Kayla (RIP) who we rasied funds for at Boofest a few years ago. The bow was bought at auction as part of the fund raising efforts. Long may she be with yóu in your hearts and memory! This is what I mean for some it means something and for some it may have...

Re: Anybody else name their crossbow?

Re: No Vixen's ???
Have to say I am very dissapointed about that myself. I have no need for a 200+ darweight biw for what I am doing. In fact that would just make my Days of shooting a chore. I was hoping the sapphire would be a sort of replacment but alas....not for my needs anyway. I dont really get the sapphire at ...
