And the point of saying that was????????
Was not saying my original post to be directed at you it was as I said there was alot of new people with Excal's going this site. I can read and see that you have been here since 2003 and that mine reads 2005. Was just curious as to why the influx of Excal guys. Have been told in PM's by several Excal guys that they do not care for the Excal forum. Just curious as to what the new guys thought of this compared to the Excal site. Try not to be so defensive, I said I liked Excal's and plan on buying one, just wanted some new members opinions. Stillconfused as to why you would point out that you have been here longer then others? Does that make you better?

RE: NEW TO HUNTING NET
Welcome, John!! I have an Emax and they are hard on servings, chances are there is nada wrong w/ claws on your bow. Best bet is to get a serving tool and learn how, not hard at all. Don makes nice strings and you can buy them from Danny Miller for either $9 or$10 depending on type at [740] 483-2312.

RE: NEW TO HUNTING NET
When I first joined Excal it was very information orientated, but that was smack in the middle of hunting season. It is far less technical now, matter of fact it is mostly comprised of bad jokes with a dab of technical info (and a pee in your pants funny story about a roped deer). That is to be expected from any site that grows, it is inevitable when there are lots of people involved, it's the unchangable nature of humanity.What I don't like is how long threads go unanswered, if you read the amount of reads versus replies it is quite sad. Sometimes the old timers just get tired of responding to the same old newbie question over and over, seemingly forgetting that is only old information to them. Newbies should be treasured and welcomed with open arms (not literally, quit looking at me like that) the more we know the bigger we will get, the bigger we get the more attention we will get from the public and manufacturers.
-I don't mean to knock Excal forums, I am active there, but I find there is no rhythm to the board. To call it technical may require someone to read the posts again.. Tye's fat girlfriends is far from technical.
I find this forum to be more of a room full of friends.

I had a Commando, neat lil bow, did some close range good w/ it hunting, but man it ate servings!! Found out after I moved it on that originally there were supposedly two small plastic sleeves on the string for the cocking claws to grab rather than the serving, don't know how true that info is/was, but sometning was missing for sure. Iknow I didn't get more than 30 shots per serving.
