I'm still amazed at how this bow shoots. I can keep all my shots inside a tea cup saucer out to 50 yards. I'm not sure I want to shoot at a deer past 40 yards, but I have confidence I could make the shot with ease if the deer didn't jump the arrow and that is what worries me the most about shooting at this distant on a Whitetail Buck. I'm ready tho.


A Doe walks out of the woods today and says, that is the last time I'm going to do that for Two Bucks.

The problem for me personally is not the accuracy of my xbows, it's the sharp crack/sound they make. Since starting to use them, deer just seem to react more than when I shoot them with fairly quiet verticals. For that reason, I limit my shots to 30.

I've had two doe "jump string" on xbows the past 3 seasons. Both were approx 25 yds and both spooky old gals in the late season. Nicked the top of both. Fast xbows still can't beat a spooky whitetail's reaction time.
