I like to get one set-up too and stick with it. I just got my Exomax a couple of months ago. Never crossbow hunted before, but have had a lot of success with my compund bow. Shoulder problems and limited practice time made me switch to the crossbow. I've been thinking about yesterday's experience wi...

OK guys . . .with all this talk about the broadheads shooting different, I had to give it a try. I have never tested a broadhead before, I just always shot the same grain broadhead as my target tip and I never had a problem. I shot the three blade wasp that came with my Exomax from 30 yards.

I had the same issue. I took my first few shots in a safe location. Got everything sighted in . . .now I'm shooting it in my back yard. I have never come close to missing the target. I rarely miss the center of the bullseye now. I do have a 6 foot fence . . .but it's been a non-issue. I have a buddy...

I've hunted all types of gear over the last 30 years. The crossbow is just as accurate as it's shooter. The amount of time you put into practice will directly impact the amount of meat in the freezer, regardless of the type of gear used in the hunt. The things that need to be practiced more is judgi...
