Just a littl about me ... Im a Motorman on a drilling rig i am presently working on a rig that works 14 days on 14 days off....on my off time i love to hunt, fish, cb, and atv ride... since the deer season just finished here i have started setting out the Hog traps on the lease ( would have had them already set out but didnt get in the lease till after bow season started and didnt want to disturb the other hunters ) .  I just got interesting after about 30 + yrs of bow hunting and now that its legal too xbow hunt and bought me and the wife each a new xbow setup and while researching xbow info ran acroos this sight and noticed its loaded with info so figured i would jump in here with both feet and learn a bit about the sport ! Thanks Gary

Welcome Gary, you came to the right place to find info about the crossbow. A very good and respectful bunch of people here. I also envy you there in the Bayou. Sounds like fun, catching them hogs. Be careful out there and glad you joined up.
