I killed my first deer with an Excalibur Crossbow last year after hunting for over 50 yrs with a rifle and a bow. You will enjoy the hunting experience with it.
Are idiots multiplying faster than normal people?

Welcome, I've hunted over 50 years with a rife and thought about getting a crossbow for next year. Both of you said you used the Excalibur. Do you recommend it or is there another one for the beginner that you think might work a little better.

Welcome sir. Excalibur makes a great bow. I do not know which model you have, or if you got one new, but the Matrix 405 had an accident discharge recall. Worth looking into if you have that model.

Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level then beat you with experience.

Isn't anyone gonna indoctrinate the FNG?
1. Immediately post pics of all your Yeti's. 2. Favorite way to eat Largemouth Black Bass. 3. HF or LF? 4. We need a pic of your breakfast to judge your character. 5. What color is your SuperDuty? 6. If not a SuperDuty, does your truck have a heated tailgate?

Cast forgot a couple:
Cull spikes or let them grow into trophies? CWD a serious threat or not? What is the smallest caliber rifle for a whitetail? County and GPS coordinates where you hunt?
