Default My setup for 2007

I bought a Bear Buckmaster Maxpoint (same bow as Excalibur Paradox) put a Ten Point Accudraw on it andI amtrying a easton gametracker and shooting a 600 grain arrow with a slick trick head.

The heavy arrow is going to give me more range pulling the string slower
and maintaining more energy at longer ranges.
I tried it and it was only 2 inches low at 30yds. Them Bar are hard to track.

Looks like you've bought a bow in pretty good shape! Looks like a set up for breaking shoulders. Good luck with it Martin.

Man, I didn't know anyone had any of dem old tracker jobs left. I haven't seen one of those things for years. And I don't know why they didn't just blow bow hunters away when they came out either. They worked pretty well and I think they will work well today. I wouldn't mind having one just for looks alone on my xbow. They still are the cat's meaow.

I remember seeing them game trackers yrs ago also when they first came out. Talk about making tracking super easy. Even if the deer ran off over a 100yrds awayand youcame across a piece of string while searching for a blood trail you knew what was at the end of the string..

Buddy, yes you can still buy them they must work to stay on the market
for all these years and you know a lot of these young guys have never seen one. I have always wanted to watch the string run out on one and follow it to a nice deer or bear.

I still have mine,I think I got it in 91 or soits been a long time,going to find it and see if it still has string in it,I dont think Ive looked at itin 10 years,then check my older archery box and see if I still have the coller for the string,if I remember right it wasnt to good after 18-20 yrds but bows have come a long way since then and maybe it would work better on these high-tech bows........
