New to the forum and crossbows

Post by BigEd »

Hey all, I just picked up my first crossbow, an Exomax.
If anyone has any pointers or tips or cool accessories I should know about, anything would be appreciated.
I saw the munchmounts in another thread, that is something I would be interested in for sure.
Thanks for any input.

Keep your fingers below the rail when shooting...you don't want to lose any digit's. :shock:
Don't shoot at the same place twice...arrows get expensive. :?

Thanks, I saw some pretty bad thumb pics on here. That will definitely be stuck in the back of my head for sure!
I had to send Munch an email, I can't send pm's yet because I'm new I guess.

Welcome to the forum.
You will love your Excalibur!
Shooting and posting is the way to learn.
Just post your questions and I'm sure an answer won't be far away.
Whatever you experience in archery, someone else will have as well.
Good luck.

Welcome to the gang! I've gotta say, this is one of the best forums on the internet! There's a wealth of knowledge and everyone pretty much gets along. Not any of the little petty bickering you find on most other sites.

Congrats on your new bow! It's definitely addicting!
