    Excalibur Mag Air vs. Hickory Creek Mini

    How do you find the centerpoint in the saddle/getting through the woods when you go through thick stuff.

    Excalibur Mag Air vs. Hickory Creek Mini

    The tuning is a little intimidating to me just because I don’t have experience with compounds, and pretty limited experience with a recurve. However, it really seems like out in the woods I hunt (which are very thick) I’m going to prefer the handier option. Thanks for the input, especially...

    Excalibur Mag Air vs. Hickory Creek Mini

    Thank you for this! This is exactly what I was looking for; someone with knowledge of both. I am definitely in the hike super deep/run-and-gun camp. This really helped push me to the HC. as far as getting it without the scope, did you just call and request that?

    That is good to hear. At the end of the day I am sure it will be more accurate than the recurve haha.

    New Saddle Hunter

    How much did it cost you to get set up? I am thinking of doing a more budget setup like this for next year. It will only be my second year hunting and first year getting up in a tree. A bit nervous about jumping straight into the saddle game as well.
