Excalibur Crossbow Forum

If there does have 28 points can you imagine what their bucks are like ? That's some mental picture.

I agree with most of the replies. Thanks for the concerm but I don't think that a cockeroo is for me. Went out again this pm and remembered to take along the cocking aid. Much easier job. How do you use the cocking aid to let the bow down.I probably won't use the method but Idon't understand how you...

What is the issue with cocking and uncocking your Excaliburs?,I'm 67 years old ,have had 3 heart attacks and 5 way by pass surgery.I usually use a cocking rope to cock my Exocet but don't know how you guys use the rope to uncock the bow.I always uncock the bow by pulling the string by hand then trig...

You've got me thinking and I think I'll try a version of your strap. It doesn't look like you've drilled any holes in your stock. I'll try it without drilling at first and if I like the sling I'll drill if necessary. Thanks for an interesting idea .

See Woody Williams post of Fri. NOV 17 "Crossbow hunter killed with own bow". Fits right into this discussion. DO NOT CARRY A LOADED COCKED CROSSBOW WITH AN OVER THE SHOULDER SLING. Yep. I know capital letters is yelling but I've been known to yell before about stupidity and a few other ti...

Groundpounder Do not carry a loaded bow in a sling on your back.The old guy on the farm next to mine made a sling for his Excal from a length of bail string.I hear that he totes it around cocked and loaded. I shudder to think about it. He'll be found some day with an arrow through his skull and bow ...

Hope that you didn't have your new and best hunting boots on because now one of them leaks. :( I guess those new commercials from the Workmen's Comp Bd. have some truth in them--Accidents don't happen !--but carelessness does. :? I always let my bow down by hand not with the cocking aid. Pehaps that...

I've never tried this in a hunting blind but have used it in ice fishing shack. Put a roll of toilet paper in a tobacco tin.Soak the tp with methyl alcohol.Put the lid on the can.When you want heat open the can and touch a match to the tp.The methyl burns off with a very warm,blue flame.With a littl...

My son brought two friends to my place last year for a hunt.The one guy shot a buck that had only one antler and there was no sign of there ever having been a second one. The one he did have had five points--nice deer.

I don't remember the prices but if I think of it I'll check the next time I'm in.

DIETS
You don't live longer for being on a diet. It just seems that way.

Diet is just DIE with a T.

If you're going to diet--what colour do you prefer?

It might be related to the rut. No experience with deer and this phenomenon but my son and his buddy shot a gobbler some springs ago. The gobbler had been with some jakes.When he went down they ignored the shooting and immediately laid a beating on him. I guess they saw their chance and weren't goin...

I didn't know until this evening that CTC is selling our favourite bows. I saw them in the sporting goods section of CTC in Cataraqui near Kingston.It appears that they have the full line,Another buying option for guys in the market for a bow and/or accessories.They may affect the pricing that the s...
