Excalibur Crossbow Forum

I admit, being so far removed from Grizzly in general. I'm ignorant to the whole situation. I hear that people don't eat the meat and it's mainly trophy hunting for conservation/control effort.
When you live so far from it it might as well be an elephant season.

....also, both my one son and my BIL have shot deer with my arra's....my BIL was a sworn "TenPoint" Crossbow person until he dropped it out of the tree...He now uses "BadaBing 8) " and shot the biggest deer of his life last year with both, the Excalibur 335 Gen1 and my arra's. Needlessly I DO NOT h...

Do you mean that black drainage pipe? Schedule 50 or greater? Don I have 2 of those never used I made out of 4" sewer pipe you can have. Yes please and thank you! Next time you go and buy a bow from EH? :mrgreen: I need some more cherry blaster, and I've got an order in for a couple broadheads. Sho...

Google “PVC deer feeder” A 4” pipe and a couple fittings and you ratchet strap it to a tree. The bears will feed from it but they can’t break it. I had a 400 pounder trying to ruin mine...he managed to push and pull it a few inches but could not break into it try as he might. If you want to PM me y...

The satisfaction of taking an animal with your own made or built arrows is hard to explain. For me it takes away any chance of blaming any bad shot on someone else. As said it brings joy as well knowing you put the effort in as well. The biggest bonus is that it keeps you away from the television, ...

Or is there a season for bear?

Ya, kinda relaxing and therapeutic. Cool find Matt

I agree with janesy. When I worked at Bass Pro, I found most people were pretty accurate , even first time shooters. Most needed more time about shooting safely. I don't know if your talking about first time hunters or just new to crossbows. If first time hunters, they need to try to shoot a few ti...

The way it was explained to me was two fold. If you are an arrow manufacturer, you need to make sure your product leaves the factory with the minimum accepted FOC for the arrows intended use, be it custom or otherwise. So they do not calculate with a Broadhead. The end user on the other hand calcula...

Wise man told me once(Boo) “ cut and inch off.... nobody will ever know” That doesn’t compromise the carbon and he is right.... no one will ever know

That's the best advice yet. No adhesive residue to jamb up the luminock

One way I have had good luck on the old Easton shafts was to lay a big 150 grain field oint on the stove until it it very hot. Pick it up with pliers and then screw the arrow onto it. Hold the arrow with your bare fingers at the nock or insert and as son as the heat begins to feel hot on your finger...

Very nice! Great pics too.

I see you scored one of the early models with the matching cheek piece

It gets a little more convoluted recently as well, since late 2018 Quills and Diablos are on fact executioners made by BE. So really, the most recent factory offering no not require upgrading.

I was wondering what kind of accuracy you would like to see from a new crossbow hunter before you send them out deer hunting. We are set up to hunt our own back forty this year with 20-30 yard shots being the norm. Most hunts will be from blinds with a good rest. Thanks Hatchet With a new hunter, a...

You both are welcome to celebrate retirement.

You know what, I'm going to retire too. Good idea!
