I've been an observer of this forum for quite some time and have just plucked up the courage to make a post.
My name's Dave and I'm interested in all things archery, have been for the past 15 years, and here in New Zealand field/target crossbows are hooked into our national body. It was just a matter of time before I had a dabble there too.
I'm not a traditional arbalist, hence my hesitation in coming out. In a previous life, I was heavily into target pistol shooting and it's the precision accuracy aspect which excites me at the moment. Not to say I won't in the future as there are some truly beautiful designs and examples on this forum that have grabbed my interest.
I'm a self taught tinker in my dream man cave and I've all but finished my latest - the Mk10e which brings my 'completed' total to 3 target crossbows. (The others are all on paper as I can't seem to settle on a design - always developing things) To date I've used Falco and Ausbow prods but intend to roll my own in the future. It looks like a science in itself.
Anyway enough said, as soon as I can figure out how to stick pics on here I'll post some up if anyone's interested.
