Re: Lumenok

I hold the bolt pointing down, and then with my right hand palm it around the fletching. Pinch the Luminock perpendicular to the wires and just wiggle it, Until it just turns off. If surprisingly easy to do if you hold it right.

Re: String questions continued

Half inch higher than you desire, but does that still fall within the "normal" for the matrix?

Re: Best Matrix/Micro Series Crossbow Poll

I went 355 matrix last year and I'm very impressed. I've shot an Exocet, the Cabelas 370whatever, vixen and equinox, and a 380. Last weekend we were playing with my 355 and my friends 380. And I'll say the 380 did hit the target a bit harder, but was it enough to justify the difference in the pull? ...

Factory Diablo Bolt Weights w/pics

Hello all, one thing I found a little difficult when I started tinkering around with bolts and broadheads was the weights of the factory components. The resources are there, but you have to dig deep. I had my reloading gear out last night so I thought I would document some items for anyone intereste...

Re: 2016 Models - Not impressed.

I'm all for making them more Compact & Faster( as I'm sure everyone here wants as well)...The point is that the QA /Testing of these new designs needs to be emphasized on the new models to return the reputation for dependability. Nobody is questioning the awesome warranty or customer service th...

Re: what happened to the reasonable price on Excal crossbows

Frustrating, that for sure, But what isn't ridiculously expensive now? At least after you save the coin the first time, you really never NEED to do it again.
