Have to brag on the Customer Service Dept of Excalibur

I bought a used Exomax a month or so ago. I decided I needed a crankaroo for when I am in a stand. I saw and bid on several on ebay. I won one and received it yesterday. Upon inspection, it did not have the screw/pin to told in on the bow. I called Excalibur this morning and talked to Dawn and expla...

I now use mostly shooting houses, latters, lockons w/climbing sticks.

But when I take a climber it is the Ol' man vision. You can bow or gun hunt with this stand. Face toward or away from the tree with a gun.

It packs up real compact to carry.

Nice idea,

I am new to X bows and have a exomax, the first time I walked to a stand I dropped a bolt out of the stock quiver/mount.

I hated the way it was mounted.

Let me know when you are in production, I would like to have one.

Find a deer in the picture

Funny, someone showed me this test where there are two pictures side by side and only 1% of the viewers can find the 3 differences in the pictures. As I studied it, I found one difference was you can see a deer in the picture to the right walking up the ridge but its really hard to pick up, took me ...

I agree on taking them out, but Georgia's Law "Which I think is stupid" Bobcat season doesn't open untill Dec 1 and you can not use a center fire rifle. Being club president I can't go breaking any game laws. If I had been at the club alone, well there might be one less cat in the woods.

Great experience watching a Bobcat

Opening morning I had already seen 6 deer in three different sightings. I heard some crows making a noise and looked over to my right. A group of 5 or 6 crows were dive bombing toward the ground and making a lot of noise. They were diving at a bobcat at the edge of the field. The cat would stand up ...

Just got home with my Excalibur "Exomax"

I review a lot of information from this site and thought I would join to learn from some of the experts on here. My bow is about two old and has the Excalibur quiver and scope. I have owned compounds since the mid 70's and thought it was time to change. I live in Ga, but hunt in Ga and Al. X bows ar...
