Got my new axiom ( used...but new to me ) sighted in today. The wifey has made claims to her simply because she's pink! Oh well, guess i better play along. She's already nicknamed her " pretty momma "
I got her sighted in shooting 125gr spifires, slick trick mags & slick standards to poi out to 40yds.
A lady after my own heart!!

NICE BOW !!! Those Axioms are great bows , All the power you need but are easy on strings and scopes. I have mine sighted in with scope , red dot and open sights . I'll can switch them around without a noticeable change in P.O.I at 30 yards. That camo pattern is great !
Nice bow "you" have there
I wonder, you guyz always sighting the crossbow from a rest? Don't you get than a different POI (rest vs. offhand shooting)? Or those "sandbags" absorbs enough? I already ordered sandbags anyway...

I have an excal fff on the axiom, the viper x's are on my other bows. But to answer your question i love them!! I have over a 150 shots on the vixen with very little serving wear & there's minimal creep in the strings at installation. Worth the money IMHO.

Thanks. Been thinking about getting one for my new Ibex. It should be a lot
Faster than the factory Dacron.
I called Viper last week but they were out of the office til next week.

Yea, i'm sure the fella's will ride me hard, but i've been called worse!
When i bought the bow i had all intentions of blacking her out, then a thoughtful member reminded me why it was pink in the first place...cancer awareness.
I lost my mother to cancer in 1997, time numbs the pain but it never goes away. So i will take my pink bow to the woods this year & give it some tree time. If the lord is willing i will harvest an animal with it in honor of my mother and be proud of my pink bow.

Have some fun with it while you're at it. Bet your buddies that you can do it. They'll probably say that you can't.
Several years ago when I used to shoot vertical bows a lot in tournaments, my uncle and I used to always shoot together. He bought a bow that the riser was hot pink, the limbs were white, and the cams were chrome that he used in the tournaments. People bet him he couldn't take a deer with it in the fall. Just to prove them wrong, he took it out and shot a really nice buck with it.
You may end up making a little cash off your bets if you can get anyone to bite.

Sweet, you are a lucky man, your wife wanting her own is a great thing, just to be able to shoot together. Does she hunt as well? I wish my wife would get interested into it with me. Maybe someday I will be able to buy a Vixen and say here its yours. Maybe then then she would get into it. I am going to try again and get her shooting my Equinox this summer right in our yard. Maybe then she will want to get into it. I think she is scared to loose my arrows. I have told her before I have a few extra and don't worry about it, but it hasn't worked yet. I will try again this summer, with the help of the grandson urging Grandmere to shoot she just might get into it. She will do anything for our grandson. I would love to have her with me in my Big Buddy tree stand this fall and let her shot the deer.
Thanks,
