There is a member on crossbownation who now only has one working eye. Guess which way he now orients the hooks?

This is why we orient the hooks facing UP, This way we don't loose an eye incase it breaks.

Yep exactly!

I've never once been able to get the cocking rope hooks over that plastic tube. So I've always just slid it out of the way, and eventually just threw the plastic tube in the trash. Same thing for all 3 I've bought over the years.

Or do you mean the regular socket head screws. That's what Excal sends with limbs now. I have a pile of them I could mail you.

I shot 3 deer with my BD417 and the same Vortex as yours last year. Distances of 35, 30, and 52 yds. I liked that reticle more and more every time I held it up at a deer. I guess we all process things in the heat of the moment differently. I don't focus on the 40 yd holdover right away just cause it...

Mee too! Buuuuuuuut im pretty sure an argument could be made that that is a pistol grip crossbow and is currently banned in Canader. In todays political climate i dont think i want to be caught importing one from China! Best case it get seized at the border, worst case you get a visit Pistol grips ...

Tap measure or straight edge should be accurate enough for this task too.

Pretty sure you can measure with a calipers and then Butler Creek has a chart to say what size you need.

McMaster-Carr would most likely have it if none of the other places do.

Haha what a shot! I've always said I would do something like that, but never have. Was the hill that steep that it rolled that much? Or just the squirrel reacting?

Way to kick things off for us. Season opens a week from today here and the wife is saying we need more venison ASAP.

On man Janesy, you are really on a roll.

My worst blunder was forgetting to buy an archery license prior to opener. Didn't realize until I was on the atv on the way to the stand opening night.
