I use either Daltons or the Excal wax on the serving. None on the deck. Turn the string so that the claws hold another part of the serving.

As Cossack said they are too long for a crossbow. You should try to shy away from broadheads that secure with an o ring between the base and the arrow as well as the ones where the blades are supported by the arrow. They are not all bad but It's better to have a solid straight broadhead assembly scr...

Boo: If you check other catalog + retail stores like Cabelas, Gander Mountain, even Walmart and such you won't find "prominent notice anywhere that the online site" about the items not being available in all stores. Canadian Tire does mention it on their site, but in a separate box regard...

Boo: If you look at the Toronto store on the Bass Pro website, you'll find all sorts of info about the store, but if you click on products to buy, you will notice at the top of the menu it says "Online Shopping". The website is an online catalog, all in $USD, and is NOT the items in the T...

The catalogues and the website for Canada all show items not available in Canada. You go to their site by selecting the Vaughn store or look at the catalogue sent to our homes and expect to see that in their store. Hmmm I think that is called bait and switch! I wonder what a court would say? I'd alw...

At 150 yards a 300 gr slug running into a moose's lungs at 1400 ft/sec is going to make it real sick!

I read an article some years back and they examined slug diameter and found a fairly moderate variance in diameters of the slugs. The point of the article was that you need to find the slug that fits the bore best by either shooting the various by measuring the bore and slug and shooting or just sho...

I use 99% alcohol to clean the shafts but you can also use acetone as Norm said with no problems at all as long as you do not leave it on carbon shafts longer than absolutely necessary. It will remove the bond between the carbon fibers if left on too long.

I think if it reduces or eliminates damage to your bow then it's worth it. Other than that it reduces vibration/shock and noise and it increases arrow speed consistency.
