Yup 90lb Spoiler shot 308 fps back in 91

wow that's a heavy bow . 308fps is faster than any of my excals , or any bow i have owned for that matter . I'll try to dig up a photo of my old bear bruin hunter .

My exocet 165 ready to do what she does best .

The crossbow model has a clip on it to keep top heavy bows from sliding . Clips to your clothing .not needed on anexcalibur imho .I use a standard claw sling and it is plenty gripy and the bow stays put .I like it alot .

Congratulations ! a lot bigger than my first harvest with my Exocet

There are other stores that sell on amazon . Some have amazon stock their products and other do it them self's . either way that it still is crap .Hope it shows up and was not "lost" in shipping .

Sorry to hear ofyour problems with amazon Mike . i buy from amazon fairly often and...

why ? isn't your vixen made from a aluminum axiom rail ? you shouldn't have any issues fitting a trigger tech trigger .

found out a trigger tech unit wont fit my vixen . Mine has the short height rail . Glad i asked before i bought one , thanks vixenmaster

I have been thinking of buying a trigger tech trigger for my vixen . I was reading on wyvern’s and it seems the 2 stage is designed for the 200lb bows and trigger pull will go higher with increased poundage and lower with less . I’m assuming this could cause to light of a trigger on a 150lb vixen an...

Silva (compasses) has good customer service . i had one for years and some how all the fluid leaked out .I contacted them and they had me send it in and replaced it with the closest current model .

Custom titanium countersunk screws: http://www.ti64.com/category_s/110769.htm (2) 5/16" - 18 1 1/2" limb to riser (2) 5/16" - 18 1 3/4" riser to mainframe do you know if those are the correct size for non matrix bows ? also do you know the size of the other small limb bolts and ...

a forward swept riser would bring that back to 175# draw . should meet or surpass your goal of 280fps with a hunting weight arrow .
