How many licks does it take to get the center of a tootsie pop? I don't know... but apparently it takes me about 350 shots to dry fire :shock: :oops: I was conscious of where my fingers were, conscious of which chevron to use for the distance, but not conscious of the empty flight deck. Thankfully I was using the stock string and S5's so all I had to do was put the string back on and reset the brace height.

I'm still learning and loving the Excalibur :D

Was it and Equinox or Exomax, if so, some mysteriously got out of the factory programed to dry fire at 350 (joke). You don'y have to do anything in your case because you had sense enough to install the S5.

Keep learning and don't miss this fall.

Just asking from personal experience, but did your string fly ten yards forward and five left? My string always lands in the same spot. :oops: :lol:

I thought we were supposed to have tight groups for the arrows not the string :lol:

In my case the string was draped nicely over the deck but unhooked at both ends.
