Instructional Video
I placed another Instructional video that Included the Bullpup Trigger System and the cheek plate on the "In-Line Crossbow" Page, it's a "Knowing the Basics" about the Vertical Crossbow.

Hi everyone,
Here at Hickory Creek we "SEE THE NEED FOR SPEED" and are now offering the Vertical Crossbow in 125 pounds. This 20 inch power stroke machine is putting out some major speed and energy. If you are looking for a crossbow over 350fps at low poundage, then this is your bow. If you are looking for a light weight crossbow that is very accurate and easy to handle, then this is your. Check out some of the videos on the "In-Line Crossbow" page for more information.
Thanks,
Jerry

I had a chance to move back and shoot at a long distance and I did very well. I had my wife Lisa pick me up a pumpkin and began shooting at a 100 yards. I shot 12 times and hit the pumpkin 11 times. Not to bad with a 18 1/2 inch bow. Take a look at the In-Line Vertical Crossbow Page to view it.
Thanks

If you have not seen it yet, check out my 93 years old dad shooting the vertical crossbow set at 65 pounds draw. The segment is on the "crossbow page".

I just setup two new Archery Shops in Oregon, Ben's Archery in La Grade and Cascade Outdoors in Klamath Falls, and they both said that no one seems to know that Draw-Loc is legal for the disabled archers. It seems that the Draw-Loc is kind of "kept secret" sort of thing. If you are in Oregon please contat the DNR's Special Permit Dept.There is only 1 state that I am aware of that the Draw-Loc can not be used in some form, Illinois, and they are bringing it before the approprate dept for review.

I recentlly compared the In-Line Crossbow shot both vertically and horizontally and what I found was that shooting free handed, as I always thought, was easier in the vertical position. Take a look at the Video I put on the "Video Page" and the "Compare Crossbow to Compound". This thing just feals good!

One of our customer, sent me a YouTube link of he and his wife shooting the Vertical Crossbow. You got to check out on the Video pages it's pretty impressive.

My 8 years old girl Jaden shoots the "Vertical Crossbow" for the very first time, after I shorten the shoulder stock length, and was shooting an 85# pound bow with no problem. I got her on video shooting several shots, all within two inches of the mark (pine cone) at 20 yards. With very little practice, 10-15shots, her groups were the same at 30 yards. This bow amazes me how accurate it is and how easy it is to shoot.

The other day I was setting up a rig for a gentleman out of San Antonio, Tx. The set up for this person was sort of different in that he is peralized from the chest down and will be drawing and shooting from a wheel chair. He has plenty of strength in his arms, but has limited balance in his chair. I felt that the shorter the draw length the easier it would be for him to hold and balance. After I shorten the draw length 2 more inches, I begain to use it as if I was in the same situation and had the same limitations as the man from Texas.

Long time friend and Pro Staff, DR. Rod Oglesby made his way down from MO last week and we installed an In-Line Draw-Loc system on his bow. This one armed shooter can really shoot that bow. Over the last 10 years he has been shooting the Orignal Draw-Loc on the DL24 bow. After getting it installed............
Take look at the "Video Page" to see his results.
