I have found that the main cause of crossbow failures are because the nock is misaligned, if the nock is off any at all the string will jump just like a dry fire
Here is my opening week buck, 260# 12+1 points (one point is small) my best yet . 2020 I arrowed a big full velvet nine and thought it would be my best so I had him mounted, 2018 I harvested my most perfect 8 so I had him mounted . God has been good
I got my all time best buck this year opening week with my bow, 260# 13 pointer, wish I could post pics but it keeps telling me the file is too big and I'm not tech savvy nuff to figger out how to fix it, but he sure was a beast and made a beautiful mount
IMO did need to be under control, too many times have drop offs killed my free range chickens , don't get me wrong, I'm an animal lover, rescued many animals from canines, horses and felines but if an animal is on my property then it belongs to me and I don't need any more than my two dogs...
