Re: Wisconsin Crossbow Trial time frame ending

Are they just talking about limiting the season or are they talking about shortening the amount of time a crossbow can be used during bow season. Either way its a joke theres way more deer in wisconsin than we need and fewer kids are hunting now days less and less every year. Deer kills are on par ...

Wisconsin Crossbow Trial time frame ending

Three years ago WI enacted a 3 year "trial" period to use crossbows during the overlapping "bow" season. The timeframe to review that is coming up. I have heard from knowledgeable sources (don't ask me what or who because I cannot reveal that) that there will be a move afoot to s...

Re: Matrix 405

I think it's amazing how these things tend to multiply in the house. I just ended up with my third one in less than three months, a brand new Matrix 350SE. I think I need therapy. :lol: You’re just starting to get sick! That’s what scares me! :lol: AND NOW, he has a nice new Vortex XBR to put on th...

Yes. But it will bring the bow closer to you when you're cocking, increasing the cocking effort somewhat.
Well, in my case anyway, I'm 6' 7" (and 285 lbs) so the cocking length usually isn't an issue, but getting size 13 insulated pac-type boots into the stirrup is. :roll:

New big foot stirrup

Anyone know if the new "big foot" stirrup will fit previous Matrix models??

In cold weather when I'm wearing bigger boots it sometimes is difficult to fit my boot into the stirrup, sometime just squeezing the toe box into the stirrup.

This one would be of interest to me.

I’m still very happy with my M380, 2-405s and my 400. I see nothing that makes me want to change.
