Sproulman: You're getting pumped full of poop by bashers. As far as the 100 yd shots on deer, lemme share a little xbow trivia w/ ya. I have, among others, an Excal Exomax. Until the introduction of the Stryker, it was the fastest xbow on the market at 350 fps. W/ said Exomax, at 350 fps, the mid range trajectory is in the vicinity of 25 FEET. Yeah, you read it right, the arrow has to rise 25 feet above your line of sight to hit on a target at 100 yds. Now, I've never personally tried that extreme of a range, but there artealot of xbow clubs/shooters in Europe that do that kind of thing on a regular basis, as Europe has a lot longer history/tradition w/ xbows than we do. They have to have special mounts made to tweak their scopes to shoot at 100 yds, as the common every day type won't adjust that much to allow those ranges. IOW, they have tilted mounts to rough adjust the poi, and then fine tune via the scopes adjustment. So, when you read/hear of 100 yd 3" groups w/ b-heads, turkeys taken at 140 yds, ect you are in the presence of a real prevaricator, lol.
