Thanks for the replies guys. kept my head down,not looking for the bolt. arrow went where i was aiming ,and sli...

Well, i do look for my bolt trajectory,so maybe that may explain it. If my crossbow and all my hardware is tested.The only variable is me. dont know what im doing wrong. I hit my mark all the time on my decoy. One more question for you guys: I have my exomax and scope sighted for dead on at 30yrd. n...

Im not new at this. i have a range finder. ranged the deer at 25 yds. am very confident with my shooting. shoot decoys at 60yds on a regular basis. Thats why im soooo confused. nothing ...

Hi all. I am soooo angry/confused. AAAAARGGGGGG!!!

HI all, I had the same problem at the start of last season. different poi,and sometimes the same. What i found was that the actual mount that hold the scope to the crossbow was loose. Tightened every bolt and screw that I could see,and that worked. Good luck. I know what a confidence killer not hitt...

congrats on your first deer with a crossbow!! Wish I was there!

Hi all,was out putting some corn down at 1 of my hunting spots . I decided to got for a walk in the woods to see if my camera had taken any shots.
I noticed a huge scrape(almost walked on it)so I positioned my cam to see what is making it.
Isnt it too early for deer to start scrapes?
thanks,Max

HI Kuffs,
just sent u a pm. Didnt read this post first ,so excuse the repetitiveness.
I hunt just up the road from here ,and in behind my house.
It's very convenient.
Here's my nuber,call me if you like.

Hey Kuffs,kinda cool concept.
Wonder if they give u a line of credit equal to 80% of your home to start?
Anyways,I see your in Kleinburg, me too.
Do u hunt around here?
I do.

I hear that CATCHER!! I'm getting iealous of some of these pics that have a time print of 3;30pm!!!
The Deer are eating all my corn,from 2am to 4am.
All my pics are at this time.
Oh well,hoping the weather changes all of that.
Just wanna see a deer during daylight!!

Yup. I hunt on a horse farm,and the farmer is always out on his trackter.
So maybe it wont make a difference. Guess I'll just have to try it out.
1 more thing: i put out my trail cam last week at about 5pm. when I retreived my cam,I found pics of deer on it at 5;45pm THAT DAY!!!

LOVE the STRICHNINES!!! Have dropped,and I mean dropped 4 deer last year with them.
Now,I cant seem to find them anymore. Bass Pro used to carry them,they no longer do. I need to find someone who does.

Hi all,was wondering if anyone thinks that getting to my tree stand via atv will reduce my chances at seeing(shooting) deer?
If so,how far should I "hide" my atv from my stand?
I am (cross)bow hunting .
Thanks in advance,
MAXIMUS

HI all,
I have been using STRYCHNINE mechanicals ( 2 inch diameter,125 grain).
Went to bass pro,and they no longer carry them. Does anyone know where I can get them now?
I LOVE these broadheads. They drop everything I hit ,so I dont have to wonder too far.

Have to agree with cossack! Anything beyond 20yds,and it's a crap shoot at how the bolt will fly.
