RE: Meat on the table?
Early in, at 30 yards I don't miss with my compound. The target below was shot offhand at 30 yards with my old Exocet. I consider that good for me. If I shot that with my compound, I would hang my head in shame. I have a really "bright" scope on my bow but with two eyes open my compound is great. It would seem that everything you do here is different than me early in, I guess it shows how everyone is so different.

Dnk: You are "different" for sure. I always suspected that, but didn't know for sure til you sent me that email video w/ the worm crawling out of that womans head!! lol. Sorry to the rest of ya for going O/T here, but that was some kinda ugly stuff! Then, to compound the matter, on another thread our Northern Pal knew the proper term for masochism!!
Sorry Don, just could not pass this one up!lol

RE: Meat on the table?
I have yet to shoot a deer with the Xbow but I already feel more confident than with my Hoyt. My 20 yard groups are not "too" much different but my 30 yard groups have to go to the Pheonix.There is also so much less to go wrong when your locked and loaded. Is it possible to be more accurate with a compound than with an Xbow? I just gotta imagine that when I can track a deer into range with a 4 power scope searching for a shot there is gonna be a lot less to worry about then when to take the bow off the hook or when to draw.The advantage has to go to the compound.I sure hope so cause I can't wait to lace one. Now if I could shoot a 30 yard group like Don's with my compound I would be one happy guy.
As a side noteI spined a deer and it's death sucked. It would have been a dishonor not to feel poorly prior to tossing another arrow thru her lungs.>>>>>>>>>>whac k!
