I've seen the video. Pass the bleach.....

First 2 GB is free, after that you start paying. 2 GB is a lot of pictures. I have several hundred pictures in my account and I'm no where near that.

The string was made by a company called Winner's Choice. It's a 32 strand string made from a material called BCY-X. I'm not a string maker so I really don't know much about different string materials.

Vixchix wouldn't be Vixchix with her Vixen. And we just picked up one for Ben too. :-) To be quite honest we do a lot more target shooting than hunting with our bows and I still say the old Exo bows are nicer for that.

Any of you string making guys know the string length for the older Exo series bows?

We always tether them to a tree so I knew they didn't go far. I went out yesterday and got soaked getting them back I'm pla...
