[QUOTE="bigcountryok, post: 1307117, member: 4368"] So for those of us who tried out the x-bow in the woods this weekend, what did you learn? Here are a few of mine. 1) X-bow and ground blinds (pop up or natural) are a good combo. 2) There is no confortable way to hold one for a long period of time while standing. 3) They are a bit akward to still hunt/stalk with. (I'm thinking of trying a single point sling to help with 2 and 3) 4) Treestands need to be set up for x-bow hunting not just bow hunting. I set up most of my stands so that the bow is in my hand 90% of the time, most shots are to the left, and I'm standing at least 50% of the time. This doesn't work well with the x-bow. This was just in one afternoon and one morning. I'm sure there will be more to learn. I like the x-bow, but it has it's place. What did you learn? [/QUOTE]
