Haven't been paying much attention to what's been going on with the archery industry in the last 6 years or so......holy crap things have changed !!!
Some things that really caught my eye.....
The new Ten Point cross bows that are under 18" uncocked and just over 13" cocked.
The compound bows in general keep getting smaller and the limbs keep moving towards a horizontal position.
Broadhead technology ......I can't even begin to explain it !!!
Really makes me wonder how recurve bows ever killed anything !!!

You're joking Tiks!?!? Where did you hear this mate? Have you got some sort of a link so I can do some research?
Sounds like the bleeding heart do-gooders have had another brain fart or they have been sniffing each other's farts and are off with the fairies...again!!!

chambered, glad you have awoken. I didn't think the 10-points crossbow was that unique.
www.tenpointcrossbows.com/
I was amazed to see the lighted arrow nocks and lasers inside the broadhead - what a combination!

Slim, I don't think they're all that unique, it's how much smaller they've become.
If you haven't seen one take a look the next time you get somewhere that carries them.
Compare the Venom or Stealth SS to the Titan or Wicked Ridge models.
Been researching what arrows to buy......here again holy crap !!!
Buying arrows use to be somewhat easy. Went to the Easton shaft selector and got 25 choices.
I'm considering those light nocks when I set up my next shafts.

I wouldn't consider having arrows without them. I think these were in our banners a month or two ago.

I think Elvis would be glad if you didn't.

My dumb state made those things illegal to hunt with. Claim it offers an unfair advantage tracking an animal or something.

Dallan, speaking of banners, how did you get your local Cadillac dealer to advertise on our website?
