Re: Excalibur Beacon Illuminated Nock

I just looked online and Lmenoks run around $31 for 3 and other brands are as low as $21. I bought two sets of 3/$21 lighted nocks and they doubled my order free. 3 out of 12 didn't work at all. Didn't waste my time risking them in the field and am out $42 :x Sticking with Lumenocks. Or, perhaps ch...

Re: Excalibur Beacon Illuminated Nock

I have about 30 lumenoks, maybe more….they have always, and I say always, worked…in fact, I was at the range yesterday and was shooting Lummy’s that I haven’t shot in over 2 years and they fired right up upon rocket launch…. ….with so much invested and consistent reliability, I’m staying put…. Am wo...

Re: Broadheads.

The 150gr. TOTA's work well. Tough head. I used one on a Barasingha last fall. She didn't go 30 yards after impact. The head was on one of Norman's Custom Made Arrows as well. Great Combo!! For reference this gal is/was the size of an Elk. https://onedrive.live.com/embed?resid=915A68B021097158%2153...

Re: Are you ready?

Am I ready?: 1. I finally received the "special dispensation" license that NY DEC has just issued for those who can get a Dr's note saying you are "downright crazy."....no problem there so now I can hunt w my GRZII or Scorpyd the entire archery season. Can't use the MAG340 or the...

Re: Broadheads.

....I know Paul Armetta was always a big fan of the Toxic BH's....from what I read they are pretty good but for the durability of the blades hitting bones etc....they fly accurately, had great cutting and penetration....and with the curved blades there is a great deal of cutting surface as the arra ...
