Excalibur Crossbow Forum

Welcome to to the tribe. Be sure to get a bow stringer to keep your brace height adjusted properly. And keep your fingers safe when shooting.

I prefer the Brake Pads, they add no weight to the bow but do soften the shot.

Sounds like you are doubling the weight and the price of that bow, not what I would want to do. But if that is your dream rig then go for it. Everyone has their own idea of the perfect gun, bow , rod , canoe , etc.

Okay I am going against the grain here. I prefer the Grizzly for hunting. If you do not mind the looks of the SMF rail you get a bow a full 6 inches narrower, almost a pound lighter and 4 inches shorter than a Vortex. Plus a much shorter draw length makes it easier to cock. I had a Vortex, a great b...

The black ones have a nice grippy texture to the whole stock; the camo. finish is smooth.

Try putting the Excal Brake Pads on your bow. Virtually weightless with loss in speed and they do work. But I also recommend using the REDS.

I like to disassemble my bows and put them into a softsided double tactical rifle case. Makes for easy transport or storage. When they are bolted back together I still have single-hole accuracy.

I found them on Ebay.

I use them and think they work better than the Air Brakes for vibration and noise reduction. You might have to put a good strong glue on them ; the factory adhesive has been known to fail.

This year I'm going to carry Thermacare body wraps. I have a quarter mile uphill hike to my stand so once I cool down and start feeling the cold I can open one up and they stay hot all day long.

Hey let's now waste time talking about the red cups out there this holiday season.

Would I recommend the Micro to a friend. ABSOLUTELY! !

So we know where you are from, now tell us the imporant stuff. What Excal. model do you shoot? Favorite arrow recipe or string maker? Tell us your best hunting story or just sit back and enjoy reading. Anyways, Welcome to the tribe.

If you want more speed upgrade to a 355 ,more speed than the Micro with less cocking effort and cheaper. But if money is tight then upgrade the scope first.

I prefer the Brake Pads. Way lighter and cheaper plus they do work. Both my bows are quieter with Brake pads installed.
