Thinking about your disabled shoulder. There are many ways to cock the...

RE: Shills

I don't write often, but I do read a lot of ML forums along with other forums. Most of the time, the people "shilling" state that it may not work for everyone. I buy and try a lot of what they...

RE: Barnett?

What is a life time Warrenty?? Tenpoint says it's 5 yrs. That is what their rep told me last weekend. Barnett says he never denided a crossbow that need repaired. I don't own a Barnett, but I have...

RE: Another Excal

If you are going to have more than one, think of different hunting styles that you do and find bows that fit each nick. Like I read once, People have bows to carry when stalking all day and different...

RE: Which crossbow forum is correct?

Most people have preferences. There's is alway the best. The Strykeforce is a good crossbow but in Michigan I think it is too fast for the 350fps limit, I could be wrong. If you have a...

There are two different types of nocks for crossbows. Half moon and Flat. Parker suggest the half moon, which are suppost to stop the string from going over or under the arrow. Carbon is more...

RE: Opinions on bow/accessory choice

I don't know how far into the UP you live, but Jay's in Gaylord and Clare are very good. The ones I talked to seem to know what they are talking about. Being that crossbows are "new" to the general...

RE: Opinions on bow/accessory choice

Now I never thought about carring a picture with me! I hunt from perment blinds, so I think I will get a couple of pictures and hang them in them. Maybe get a whole herd of pictures.

Thank YOU....

RE: Need advice

A lot of the user say Excal instead of writing out the full name Excalibur.

A lot of things need to go into making a selection. If you hunt from a treestand or other structure, is there room to...

RE: Disappointed In D(IC)KS

Michigan just started to allow crossbows, I went in to a D**k's Store and asked to see the crossbows and they didn't seem to know anything about them even allowing the crossbow for hunting.

RE: need advice

I worry more about the abuse of the previous owner than the manufacter. It's hard to tell if there are mirco cracks that are there from abuse or poor care of the crossbow.

RE: Which Muzzleloader too buy??

I used the mediums on my Accura, with 40mm glass, I needed to remove the rear site. Other than that I like mine.

RE: need advice

I don't know where you live in Michigan, but the best thing to do is go to a place likes Jay's or one of the big companies and handle all the bows in your price range. Most seems to came with some...

RE: need advice

Another thought, a recurve is always wider than a compound bow for the same poundage. So it depends on where and how you plan to hunt. Tenpoint sales a couple of crossbows that can be either a...

Eastman Crossbows

I am getting ready to buy a crossbow. So far my two main choices are between Eastman and Parker. I cannot find a company web site for Eastman Outfitters. I guess it scares me if I don't have a easy...

RE: Newbie - which cossbows should I avoid?

The Problem with this is that the Stryker is illegal in Michigan. Michigan set a 350 fps limit.

Jays in Clare and Gaylord seem to have a good selection check them out.
