I can cook 30 minute brownies in 20 minutes.

Have not been here in a while. I've been shooting the PSE Tac series for quite a while and have been wrestling with limb-failures. Three so far. So after 5 years I'm switching to a Ravin R20. It gets here tomorrow.

Sadly, Rocket Steelhead XL 100gr heads are no longer made. These were my go-to head and I've harvested over 100 deer with this head with shots out to 55 yards. They fly right with my field points. So I'm shopping for a new head. Someone suggested Rage Hypodermics. Anyone have experience with...

I don't pay attention to spine when I fletch. However, I have noticed that if a particular arrow hits off the mark, I'll flip it over and see how it shoots. Often it will shoot better. I'll mark which side should be "up".

I posted this on the Tac15 forum, but thought it might get more traffic here. I cracked a limb on my Tac15i crossbow on Saturday after three years of hard hunting and around 80 deer taken. PSE said they would fix it (KUDOs to them!!!) , but it will take quite a while - there are no limbs...

I cracked a limb on my Tac15i on Saturday after three years of hard hunting and around 80 deer taken. PSE said they would fix it (KUDOs to them!!!) , but it will take quite a while - there are no limbs currently in stock, but they are in production. It might be a month or more. I do deer...

I have not noticed this with the Tac15i. I recently had some kind of string failure and the string dampers slipped out and started touching the cams on both sides. This made arrow flight erratic. I had purchased a string-replacement kit from LRH shortly after buying the crossbow, so I replaced...

Beautiful buck and stag!

We have a small hunting group called Animal Connections Deer Management Team (Animal Connection Deer Management Team             Managing The Deer Population                       Feeding The Hungry - General Information) that I am the director of. We harvest deer with archery tackle in suburban...

Wow! That's a huge 8 pointer! What's the story behind the harvest?

We have a new spot in Howard County MD where the does have appeared to have a lucky star or possibly a force-field of alien origin protecting them. Four hunters had been to this place previously and all have come away empty. It was getting jinxed and last Saturday it was my turn to see if I...

What is this bias against expandables? That Wasp Jakhammer is a great head. Hunted with it years ago. I've killed somewhere between 150 and 200 deer with Rocket Steelhead mechanicals in either standard 100gr or XL 100gr flavors. As far as I can tell I have never had a broadhead failure. These...

Nice buck!

Very sorry to hear this. With the Tac15i you are supposed to load the arrow first, point the bow in a safe direction, and then crank in back. This is the procedure shown in the video they send with the crossbow. As a safety precaution, before cranking the bow back I reach into the action with...

How do you get this case?
