Excal Equinox for me. I've tagged out with it for the last 8 years. All walk and stalk.

I am itching to get in on bow season this year so I can get an extra weekend of hunting... maybe find a BT before they go into "fall mode".
Happy to run into this thread. I'll be looking for something on the small/compact size that will work for deer and bear if need be.
I'll start by checking out some of the models in this thread.
Got my Sept. 1 buck easily. They are so stupid during that time lol! I was using a matrix 405 btw.
Thanks gmachine! I will check it out. You left out the GPS coordinates for the early-dumb bucks though!!
Lots to read and then I am going to go check out a few crossbows at the local shops.
So many options so hard to choose, especially with not being able to test them in the store lol
God help me if i ever get to old and feeble that i would have to shoot a crossbow.....but if i ever do it would be a Ten Point..haha
Better a sister in a w#ore house....then a brother with a mathews .
Without getting too passionate, can anyone list the advantages and disadvantages in regards to crossbow vs compound bow?
I am leaning towards crossbow as it seems less complicated (keep reading about compounds that need tuning, losing hunting days to various mechanical issues more so than rifles or crossbows) I think I would be fine with draw weight and holding it vertically for short periods, but that too could be inconvenient. I think I will need to try both (I have only shot a crossbow once) before I decide. One thing for certain is compound bows look awesome!!
