A crossbow only channel just makes me smile....I've been a dbb fan for years and always appreciate what yall do......thx

Rich, always enjoy your videos, thanks for taking your precious time and sharing them with us.

Gm Rich. You’re making me want to go out in the backyard with my coffee and crossbow as well. Have a good weekend

[@Cloud4hundred20]

Yeah I got some things to do before the coffee and target practice in the backyard.. car breaks are metal to metal…

Rich, thank you for crossbow appreciation month videos!

[@Cloud4hundred20]

I love that I felt you were talking directly to me thru out this video.. little things like nock tuning and the best arrows in the quiver lol… really pretty cool. To watch you and learn from you and to watch your videos and actually get to talk with you once in a while. Pretty cool….😎

[@Cloud4hundred20]

I got to go shoot my crossbow and get my arrows picked for the quiver. Good thing is I got a lot of good arrows and broadheads left over from previous years. I need a shooting buddy is what I need.. the wife goes with me here and there but she just pretends to care for my sake.. lol always fun getting out drinking your coffee and playing with our man toys..

[@Cloud4hundred20]

So many things we hunters can do to help increase our odds of having the “perfect shot placement”. I feel like a lot of people around me think I’m crazy when I tell them I’m lining my spine with fletchings giving me the 3 options getting close enough is what I say.. but removing the veins and going that route to line the spine and nock giving the best results.. I’ve just never removed veins on purpose that’s why I need the vein placement tool thing lol… I’ve learned a lot over the years mak my me a better and better hunter every year..

[@Cloud4hundred20]

Those crossbow cases is one of the best investments I’ve ever made for my crossbow

[@petew6974]

Hi everyone, I have a killer instinct crossbow and I heard people are having a hard time lubricating the barrel. All you need to do is get a .40 cleaning or oil cleaning peace out of your gun kit and screw it in to your bolt. Lube it right up works great. Shoot straight God bless stay safe.

[@mattmusselman5055]

Oh no!! Poison ivy is the WORST! This is the first summer in about 5yrs that I haven't had multiple major break outs of it. I am SO careful. It's miserable. Get well soon. Great video. Been watching everyday. Enjoy your day!!

[@Deathbybunjie]

Thank you!

[@boomerrangerron]

HA HA! I'm thinking that the original Bunjie can compare to a Model A. FORD! Dependable, affordable, and fun to drive! Also, wondering if I need to upgrade to a "Reverse Draw" model? Maybe next year! So glad to see you still using the AFR notebook!

[@paulkovalcik5042]

Lol! Note to self. Never take prescription steroids and an xl coffee into the woods. Great video as usual. I don't have time to go through this effort right now. But will probably do some spine tuning once I upgrade to a modern crossbow.

[@Deathbybunjie]

That's the way to do it, you don't need to do all this stuff at once but just keep thinking about it. Totally agree on the coffee and steroids.

Death Stalker is a fine crossbow. Miss mine😢 Talking about poison oak, I had a real bad encounter with some when I was a teenager. Was weeeatingat our town library and was weed eaeating poison oak in shorts! Like an idiot, I had no idea that I would catch it. A few days later, I had to go to my college infirmary and get a prescription for it to help the terrible rash. I really learned my lesson 😂

[@user-qx8jr7so1m]

Great video! I was starting to wonder if you had retired the slick black Cadillac. I know they are not Burt Coyotes and you didn’t like them last time but I enjoy using Firenocks and they clip on like they recommend for the Deathstalker line to get the best accuracy. It might be worth giving them another test.

[@Deathbybunjie]

They probably are the best choice for lighted nocks for the deathstalker but still, no thank you LOL

[@leveraction767]

I have been enjoying the crossbow month spectacular. I knew, you would end up being a wrench, when you started with those ridiculous contraptions, called compounds. 😅 Well... You have advanced into the deep dark hole and (IMO) you should just get the spine indicator. It isn't expensive and you have the fletcher. You know how to install all the components... Time to start ordering your shafts raw and doing it yourself. At the very least, you can strip and rebuild the shelf offerings. That said... This is and has been a learning channel forever and it's time (again, IMO) to bring your crew into the advanced stage. Custom arrows simply refers to the fact that the guy that makes them, knows what they are doing. YOU DO. BUY THE TOOLS.

[@Deathbybunjie]

You are The Man, thank you for this, it's so good to hear from you. And you get it! You kind of see where I'm going! Fantastic. I'll start shopping.

Omg rich…. So in your video you have an orange thing where you had put new fletchings on your arrows what’s this tool called and where can I find it at?? Literally want that exact one and not sure where to start looking

Next,weigh all your competed arrows with the lighted nocks installed, then adjust all the arrow weights to the lightest arrow.

[@DanaKing-uf6oy]

@@MichaelLakota-vc4tk Great idea if you want a heavier arrow

[@Deathbybunjie]

We're talking about a two or three grain difference most likely

[@DanaKing-uf6oy]

@@Deathbybunjie yes,what we have at the shop is a jig that we put the completed arrow into then you remove the nock and remove some of the end of the arrow shaft until you get to the desired weight,the jig is similar to an arrow squaring jig.Note: all arrow components do not weigh the same,so you end up with a set of a dozen custom built arrows that will all weigh differently.

Never thought of using poison ivy as an excuse. I have to put that one in the kitty. Get that airr slanger ready!

[@driftlesshunter9200]

You obviously own two modern crossbows that load up opposite. The Deathstalker loads cock vane down, & the Swat X1 loads cock vane up. In either case, spine aligning your arrows will still be helpful. Personally, I think life is easier when the cock vane is lined up with the spine. The drop-away rest on my compound bow allows me to shoot my arrows however I want. I could shoot 4 vane arrows if I wanted. I shoot cock vane up on my 3 fletched arrows each time to take advantage of the factory spine alignment. Victory arrows take this a step further. The opposite side of the spine is devoid of any decals, and that allows the arrows to be drawn across the rest with less friction/noise. I appreciate companies that think of the little things.

[@Cloud4hundred20]

@@driftlesshunter9200 yeah the cocking veins up and down would eventually mess me up not paying attention caught in the moment and adrenaline running.. super cool to have different set ups though.

[@Cloud4hundred20]

@@driftlesshunter9200 never really payed attention to the manufacturing ways of doing things. I always just did process of elimination.. which was very expensive but now I know the set up I want and need. Killer instinct hypR crossbow bolts with lighted nocks.. really sweet arrows super tough.. many people don’t like them because they are glued ends already so you can’t pull the nocks or inserts very easy anyways. But the grains are perfect for me.. and I always use the mega meat broadheads or even the dead meat broadheads has to be the red collar for high speed crossbows though. But this set to me has been unmatched. Black eagle arrows were my favorite till I demanded the lighted nocks. It’s a lot of work to put nocks on an arrow and new inserts with added weight in the front of the arrow just to shoot once and be gone forever or broken. So I started buying arrows already to what I needed. Also another super cool thing killer instinct did was put a rubber o ring with a little pull tab on the o rings to put on the nocks so it can’t be pushed prematurely.

[@DarrylBlackBlackfishFishing]

I have a question for you. I just recently bought the killer instinct diesel x. Because of the size. I have another also narrow when cocked. That bow you have looks heavy and bulky. I guess my question is why you choose something like that.

[@Deathbybunjie]

If you think that's big and bulky, you have not seen very many of my videos lol

[@DarrylBlackBlackfishFishing]

@@Deathbybunjie trust me. I’ve been the one increasing your view count. I just got back into hunting after 10 years. Long story short answer. Divorce. And now they allow cross bows. Thay didn’t until a year after I stopped hunting. So now I buy a couple of crossbows and where else to see some different crossbows but KZbin. Came across your channel and binge watched. I also have a channel. Mainly fishing. Check it out. I’m pretty good. Anyway I see the original bungee. All I can say is damn. That’s a big bow. It’s just a sideways bow on a gun. But anyway I’ll probably watch some of your past videos tonight. Not so many people with entertaining videos on crossbows. You’ll hear from me again. Season is just beginning

[@Deathbybunjie]

@DarrylBlackBlackfishFishing great to have you, yes a bow sideways on a stock 100% as for smaller ones, check out the SWAT X1 The Enforcer videos...that's my current favorite. I agree with you about size

[@DarrylBlackBlackfishFishing]

@@Deathbybunjie I did watch that one. I definitely like that bow. But I’m pretty sold on the killer instinct diesel. 405 FPS. But I’m probably gonna get the killer instinct vital x 430 in the future. My diesel cocked is like a chubby gun and quite? But I did like the swat. Maybe I’ll watch that one again. I’m actually watching your wild boar video right now.

Hey Rich, how heavy is the weight that you hang on the arrows in your spine tuning machine? P.S. “All hail Bunjie”

[@Deathbybunjie]

It's like 2 lb or something like that but I don't know for sure

[@Lured-in]

Right on! Thanks Rich.

[@daltongoodwin449]

Phil Valentine led the charge against Tn. income tx. ...

[@LSWH]

This may sound naive, but why could I not just pull the nock and look to see where the spine is on the inside?

[@Deathbybunjie]

Some people claim they can see it but I have listened to podcast after podcast and seen video after video and talk to expert after expert, and they claim it is not visible.

[@LSWH]

@@Deathbybunjie Gotcha, in my naivety I pulled the nock on one of my arrows, and am pretty certain that I could see what I would assume to be the spine. I could be wrong though. I guess I’ll have to adjust and then shoot them to see. Running stock Barnett Headhunters. (Except for Lumenok) They weigh about 475gr I Love My Swhacker #251s!

[@verumsui7646]

Can anyone help me with a scope problem? My scope is fully maxed down and still i am shooting 6 in high at 20 yrds. Barnett raptor str. I have taken the scope off, tried to adjust the rail, adjusted the rings, tried removing the up down dial and turning it more. Best i got is 5 in high.

[@Deathbybunjie]

My first suggestion is make sure you're turning elevation down and not off, I'm not pointing fingers, I am talking from personal experience, I made that mistake time and time again. I'm not saying you are but there's always that possibility. Assuming that's not the case, the next thing to do is contact barnett. I'm sorry but every once in awhile I get this question and it's just a bum crossbow design flaw. Make sure you're using the right arrow weight as a minimum also but other than that I don't have any ideas.

[@roberthomiak5003]

Slick back Cadillac or maybe it's the big bamboo

[@sphinxios]

was that only one shot per arrow if so then you cant get any statistical information out of that shot an arrow 10-25 times the we can start talking then you will see if those will hit the same spot every time the more shots the better your endresult will be, first you need to figure out if the arrow makess the same flight every time or if there is something else interfering with the arrows flight. persnally i would try to find someone that is a crossbow target shooter at high level and see if i could get tips/ideas on how to tune the gear for optimal shooting. i would also check how out of balance the arrows are since they rotate that comes into play as well the faster they rotate the bigger the balance is influencing the flight. you felt the trimmer when it loses one string P.S. i did quite a bit of target shooting indoors and was fairly good at it, but it bceame to cumbersome 70 miles back and forth and only for 3 hours once a week and on top of that one needs a gun license in sweden to have a crossbow for some reason.

[@Deathbybunjie]

Yeah 20 to 25 times no thanks lol

[@sphinxios]

@@Deathbybunjie well get a bunch of hunting buddies use same models of x-bows preferably get a bunch of extra strings over a weekor or weekends, in some types of competition shooting only one arrow is used shot repeatedly(can this maybe start tell us something) i also saw on wolfzeit sweden that there a kit to improve fps with 20 on older excals pre -2013 without voiding warrant or limb life. p.s. it comes to mind that the rail the arrow touches is about 30-35mm at both eds the rest is chamfered so arrow is sort of floating most of the way those are 90 degree corners to make minimal friction i just had a look on both of my excals and the rail edge/groove has rounded edges wich would make more friction i cant say how much difference that can make

Have to have multiple crossbows....different purposes, setup differently, backups in case something goes wrong or breaks while you get it fixed, loaning one to someone tagging along etc etc. "Two is one and one is none!" You'll never guess who lives by that standard. "Beware of the man who only has one gun he knows how to use it". That's actually a myth and not true at all. In fact the "less" you have the more "amateur" and not serious you are......Do you have one hammer, one ratchet, one screwdriver etc etc? POW....it just broke and you're done!
