Glad to hear it Scott,,, Ive talked to several people who have used the Excalibur and really think highly of it. I have a Ten Point and mine is of the compound variety,, I have heard that the recurve style is quieter than mine,, but I've never had the opportunity to hear them side by side,, so I guess it's pretty subjective for me.

Did you get it in time for the WV deer season? I didn't get the chance to do any bow hunting this year,, but I did get a buck in rifle season,, and I have a doe tag left,, so I may go out some time this month with my bow. We have a late doe season, here, that runs to the end of the month.

Good luck with your bow.

Thanks ed...

I haven't received it yet. The winner was announced Sunday. I tried hunting with my old crossbow (cheap one i bought on ebay) and with my shotgun, but didn't see a single deer while I was hunting. Our (WV) hunting season ended on the 31st of Dec. I would have gotten one for near certain, but I couldn't get to where the site was. I'm going to try and buy a small tow trailer and maybe a used 4x4 atv so that I can be transported to more hunt sites. I even had the idea to turn the trailer itself into a blind to hunt from. Next year I plan to be more prepared. I sold my 12 gauge to buy a rifle. The way my mount is set up, it was too much recoil. I was hoping to put meat in the freezer but until next season, it'll have to come from the grocery store. :)

Thanks again.

Scott and Tsh,, since you guys are both hunters,, you might be interested in this. There is a group of people in Wyoming, that put on a guided antelope hunt every year, for disabled people. You have to get an application, on line, and I suggest writing a little extra on the back, about how much this hunt would mean to you,,, you know,, ham it up a little.

It's called Helluva Hunt, and it's in Douglas , Wyoming. They take 15 people a year. I got to go in October, and it was a blast. The weather is usually good when the hunt is scheduled.

If you are interested,, you need to get your application in pretty soon as I think they do their picking in Feb.

Sounds like a great hunt Ed, but I wouldn't trust my van for more than 50-60 miles from home, let alone 1200-1500. I need to win a van contest now. lol

Jerry, if I lived by the sea, I'd sell my weapons and buy some charm to woo the bikini clad dear. If I can get get my full quota of game this coming season, there will be plenty of jerky to go around.

Thanks again all...

Sounds like a fine line between not bad and just plain bad. I guess if I were hunting it for meat I'd go for a doe or a pre-or-post rutting buck. My dad use to do taxidermy and the one antelope he did smelled nasty. Unless I strike it rich, I'll never get out west anyway. Sure would like to get an elk though.
