Re: Are fiberglass bolts safe for matrix/micro bows?

I'm aware there's other options. I'm curious if board members have experience with fiberglass bolts!? Thanks

Re: New Xbow for 2021

Can you have a reverse limb- recurve?

I've never seen a reverse limb that didn't use cams...What would be the benefit?

Re: Excalibur 2021

I'm a simple man, I'd simply like to see more Coyote Tan color schemes. I can't beleive Excalibur pays tons of sponsors for sophisticated camo patterns when plane jane Coyote Tan will do just fine or even better!

fall season smallmouth with eggs?

I know this topic isn't crossbow related, but why do some smallies carry eggs this time of year? Is there a second late spawn or is it getting ready for spring? I find the later more hard to believe...?

How affordable would a compound x-bow need to be to be attractive?

We all love recurves but how low $$$ does a compound have to go for you to consider buying one? ....250$ CAD...300...? :eusa-popcorn:

Can you find a use for a budget compound in your collection?

Re: aging meat at home

I'm wondering if people are missing the point of this post. Can you age meat prior to eating, rather then prior to freezing?

Quebec Turkey online registration

It's very simple online. Takes 1-3 minutes and no pictures are required. It's entirely an honor system.

I wouldn't waste my time to find an in-person registration station If I was you.
