I will be out for archery for my first time tomorrow, so I'm very excited. I have a Excaliber Axiom, which comes in a package deal. It came with rope cocking device, 4 bolts,4 field tips, 4 bolt quiver and a multiplex crossbow scope for less than $500.00...of course mine was a birthday present from my husband, so even better. I love that its a recurve rather than a compound as I have been told it is more accurate. It has been fantastic in practice, so hoping it will do the job in the morning!!
