Excalibur Crossbow Forum

WASP has a line of camera's out - pretty much the same dimensions etc as the GoPro's. There models have a 4X digital zoom that works for either their JPEG or AVI format (and it's a zoom in/out button, not a fixed 4X or nothing deal). At least two of the models can be controlled by a "wrist watc...

There are dozens of a "adapters" on the market that would let you leave your current rail in place. You would still have to "swap" scopes but could leave you night vision one "mounted" on the adapter. It would place it higher (obviously), but unless you planned on using...

Vixen II - can still cock it by hand if I toast both my rope cockers. Can pull it all day to practice without taking pain meds for aching muscles. While it's slow at 270-280'ish fps, 350 fps doesn't do a thing for you if you are shooting past 35 yards anyhow - it's still "slow" and Bambi w...

I bait - it's legal where I hunt and I consider it ethical personally. My theory about baiting has to do with the area you are hunting. I don't have the good fortune to be hunting deer anywhere near Ag fields. So I can't "cut them off" or sit on a trail used by them to get to dinner etc. I...

I can say that I have never had a buck come into a grunt call (that I am aware of). I use the grunt call to stop a buck that is sauntering by - and it usually stops them dead in their tracks. But for all the grunt calls I have tried, I can't say that following a grunt a buck came in "because of...

The NAP Blood Runners have been made in China for years. Sometimes the only way to keep the costs "competitive" is to make "some product" offshore. Even Buck Knives which prided itself in it's "made in USA" sticker has since outsourced a good deal of their line and now ...

If we waited until November for our Thanksgiving the Turkey's would be needin' Snow Shoes

I see an issue.

In a short time span you are going to have a block target with a useless center - will suck to have to toss it when every other square inch is brand new

In 2007 Bear Archery bought them out. I doesn't look like they continued to produce their broadheads (if they bought the patents as well ????). I still see the odd listing for (old) Trophy Ridge heads on clearance. Probably your only bet would be finding some small shop, tucked away somewhere, that ...

Although Excalibur has been around for about 30 years now, I wasn't initially familiar with the brand. I was a fan of recurve crossbows going back to my first one. Over the years I owned two Horton's. When the second needed retiring, Excalibur was a known name, at least in the Canadian market and th...

They are still taking submission on the proposal until early November (like they did with the moose changes - but not a single thing from the proposal for moose was changed as a result of submissions). And again, they still haven't addressed the fall shotgun hunt. Here is the synopsis of the proposa...

I have only hunted 3 days so far this season. I spent all day in the stand on Saturday (the opener). Was there before sunrise and stayed until just after sunset - so a solid 12 hour day in the stand (but it is a home built 4'X6' complete with peaked roof etc - I can get up and move around, lay down ...

Yes, wait until next year. The "proposed change" (which is government speak for "done deal") will have a "bow only" fall turkey hunt that opens on the 1st of October (and continue until Oct 31st) to coincide with the early bow (deer) season. There is no mention of what ...

Paul, your response and the one from Hi5 both sound more than reasonable. And I am not trying rewrite any scientific studies or change anyone's mind based on "their experience". Over the past few years my way of hunting has changed somewhat. It's more about the hunt and less about actually...

Both science and hundreds of thousands of hunters... or more have proven deer live and die by their olfactory senses. One doe that didn't smell you disproves or debunks nothing. Anybody that has hunted for any length of time has encountered the inexplicable concerning scent. Whether the deer had an...
