Crossbow differences

[awshucks]

Rare is the woman that can spot an inch or two of rail diff, lol. Vix and Lascha exceptions withstanding.

I've had all the reg stock models except for a Phoenix and I tried for one of those, but got the Ecet mis marked from factory. By the time I found that out [damn Danny] a year later, too late, was in luv.

Gotta say it and Vixen are my favorites. Sweet and saucy.

In the end they all hurt if you do not keep your thumb down or slip out of the stirrup while cocking.

100% true! big, BIG owies!

I love my Y25, but my "thumb" puckers just a little everytime I shoot it now. Dont ever do this. Ever. ever ever ever. Ive done it twice. Dag gum! ive got a dumb thumb

Did you find any difference going from thumbhole to a traditional stock.I'm also interested in purchasing either a Phoenix or Ibex just cant decide which model. Tested them both just not sure which route to take?

Can only speak for myself. Had to buy the stock x-tender for the Vortex. Stock just felt not right without, but again that's me. I personally tend more towards the traditional stock. On the other side, the TH is not bad at all neither with the x-tender.

Well I only have bought one CB and that was an Axiom (old style) this past summer.

Had never shoot any other CB, but some Verticals long time ago.

First 4 shots at 20 yards had a 1 1/4" group. on the target where I was aiming.

Way impressed. Took out the camera and got a pic. Posted here somewhere.

I have shot many rifles, handguns, shotguns. To me this was just a back pat to good research, and a Canuck company to boot.

Ok so after shooting for a couple days DW wanted to shoot it. I helped her cock it and snap hit the target 1st time. ( she has shot a wee bit of rifle and did get 1 antelpoe years ago). Evil grin from her. So she shot for a while and just loved it.

A few friends have shot it and were impressed. All these guys have hunted with rifles and bows.

Youngest daughter ( 19 ) who has no interest in guns what so ever, now wants to learn how to shot the CB ?? WTF ?

Unfortunalty due to work and tons of rain I only got out with the CB a couple times and did not get any good opportunities to use it.

I st get an Axiom and get shooting.
2nd let DW shot the CB.
3 rd get her a Vixen or like and make it sound like a second wedding.
4 get camo bikini for her. ( Optional)
5 get extra arrows and points as they run away never to be seen again.
6 repeat.

FWIW when I got my Axiom I also had the lucky opportunity to take a BIG fall and break two ribs and a good wack on the brain. I could not draw the string so I got a rope cocker. Made it easy.

My target is under about 4 feet of snow now, I have not shot any deer eating at the bird feeder. Flinch, tick, tick,

Waiting till spring and when the gophers come out.....

And i Did get permission from an away fellow that owns land behind my place, so I can hunt his land. Just have to replace a few rotted fence posts and post when I am shooting. AHH life is going to be good this sumer.
