Is the snake skin real or fake? everything else looks like you did it all the old way but I've never seen snakeskin on the cresting.

That's real snakeskin. Adam is a very gifted man. The front of those arrows are every bit as pretty. Adam makes his own trade points out of scrap metal. He takes his fair share of deer with his homemade works of art to.

Seriously? When has pa been known for "big bucks" or large populations of deer statewide? Lets be honest. To end the debate pa guys know that there arent "alot" of deer and thats why crossbows are hated there! "you "think they give an advantage that will lessin your chances in the stand. True or false.

Whether or not a crossbow is any easier to shoot than a compound is argueable. In my opinion, a compound bow is not all that difficult to shoot either. However, if a crossbow is easier to shoot, SO WHAT. What is the big deal?

LMAO!! I bought my then 7 year old daughter a crossbow this summer and after just 3 days she was shooting it as good as I shoot my compound with 30 years of practice under my belt. Pike
