Featured Comment by Charles Sample on November 1, 2013 at 12:13: Howard, you are right about pulling the arrow out. To pull mine out I have to sit down with both feet against the cube and pull with both hands.

Comment by Tobias Gibson on November 1, 2013 at 12:05: Good Luck, Robert!

Comment by Howard P Reynolds on November 1, 2013 at 12:01: Robert,

I don't own a crossbow ($1,000. seems to be a bit high for an ancient, pre-gun powder weapon), but I have stayed at a Holiday Inn, and did a little target practice with a couple crossbows recently, and found that when using one of them there spiffy store-bought target cubes, you better lube the arrow, or call the Incredible Hulk to pull the arrow out.

In Memoriam Comment by Robert Burris on November 1, 2013 at 10:59: I'm heading to my camp this weekend to do a little bow hunting. It will be my first try. I shoot a handi cap cross bow. It even has a crank to pull the string to the cocked position. I shoot mechanical arrow heads, instead of broad heads, the reason being, they shoot the same as my target arrows. There's no need to re-sight in. Good luck to all and ya'll go pass a good time in the Outdoors.

In Memoriam Comment by Robert Burris on October 31, 2013 at 9:13: Last night at the banquet, there was a venison dish cooked with a Cranberry sauce until it melted in your mouth, it was so tender. Wow. I wish I had the recipe. I do know it was cooked a long time in a slow cooker pot.

In Memoriam Comment by Robert Burris on October 31, 2013 at 9:10: Hey, congrats Ken. That's great news. You are the first to brake the ice. I think. A young buck is always good eating and by taking him early before winter, he should be fat and sassy. Please try for some photos.
