lcacrossbow, I am very interested in shooting with you, I am sending you a pm with some contact information. If you are within an hour or two from me than I will come to you if you would like. This is not a "my bow is better than your bow" challenge, I would like the opportunity to see your bow perform and compare notes, results do not have to be published here either.

here's my take on bow accuracy. first off, this Brad[can never eremember last name] is a very accomplished shooter. He'd be hard to beat no matter what bow he shoots. If he represents a co other than Excal, more power to him, that's his right.

I once had a magic day here at a cookout/ beer fest. Managed to put three into a 35 mm film can lid at 30 offhand. Probably will never happen again, lol, but has some wise arses here and dang it felt good. Point being the bow is capable of far more than I am. So is yours and others regardless of mfgr. While at that benefit shoot for Mark O'Brien near Knoxville w/ Smoke, I rested my bow on a pair of binocs and my wallet, to check 40 yd zero. Granted, I have a Leupold on that bow, but got 3 under a poker chip at 40 yds. Again, the bow is better than me. So is yours. So, to wind this up, the 10 or 12 ring on 3-D targets is about the size of a poker chip. When a company like "XYZ" takes 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th that will get more of my attention than anything else.

Some of you US vets know who Carlos Hathcock was. He had a bunch [99]of confirmed kills in VN. He used Rem, Win and even 50 cal machine gun set on S/S w/ a scope. It was the Indian and not the arrow there too.

one thing is for sure. the subject of middleton always stirs the pot very well. personally, i think he shouldn't have been so blatant in the copying of bill's bows.:eek: nothing wrong with competetion but a little originality goes a long way. myself, i'll stick with bill and his crew till the end.:D

Any details on the deer inthe pic? There are a few in that class roaming this area, but getting one takes a lot of skill, luck, or both! ;)
There was one pictured in our local newspaper this year with a huge rack & matching drop tines on each side (sorry, no scanner to copy the pic) that would have been a real trophy in anyone's book!

Odd, at the Excal forum, Woody was there and said that the Fiddleton booth was empty! Does anyone have any clues?
