Excalibur Crossbow Forum

HELP... I am trying to put my new Phoenix together. I have installed a new STS vibration inhibitor. However, I have misplaced the two dissipator pads provided by Excalibur with my bow. I have looked everywhere (except where they are) and can not find them. Question...Can the bow be shot without the ...

I want to use some of my existing 2216 shafts to build new arrows for my new Pheonix. I would like to crest the arrows. If I spray them with enamel or lacquer (over aluminum) do I use a glue intended for aluminum shafts or carbon shafts? Offset....some of you say offset or helical, it doesn't really...

Just got my Phoenix. Came with a Varizone scope. No instructions on how to use the multiple reticles. Once you are setup on your velocity and you have your windage set, I assume you use the top crosshair for 20 yards, then go out in 10 yard increments. Can someone please explain.

Thanks,
Mike

Greetings:

I need some suggestions of suppliers that will provide unfinished bolts. No knocks, fl etchings or inserts.

Thanks for your help,

When you guys talk about "off set" are you working with a Straight Tool or helical?

It looks like the Groundpounder might interfere with sighting through a scope. Yes or no?

WABI nice group...no GREAT group.

What is the recipe for this group. Broadhead, FOC, fletch length, weight...everyting!

Greetings:

New owner of a Phoenix. Seems like a lot of people prefer to get more weight in their arrows, especially for hunting deer at relatively close range.

What are the pros and cons to going with a 22 inch shaft?

Please share your thoughts and experiences.

Thanks,
Mike

New phoenix owner here. What kind of a scales do I need to go through all these calculations on my arrows, and where can I buy one.

Greetings All: You will be happy to hear (my Canadian friends more than others) that I just ordered a Excalibur Phoenix, with a SCOPE. So we will see. Still need to work out which arrow and broad head to use. Also need to find an affordable target. I have Block 4x4 that is just like new. Hopefully, ...

FYI I will be 63 in February, I just had cataract surgery in my left eye, I have trifocal glasses and I am about to undergo rotator cuff surgery on my left shoulder. Did I mention that in the morning my arthritic knuckles hurt so bad I can barely stand it. Guess you could say I am falling apart! I c...

Good comments. I also understand the light gathering capabilities if you are hunting from an enclosed ground blind and the magnification compensating for the diminished vision. I also understand the people that shoot IBO or like to shoot varmints or small game. I also agree with the person that talk...

I will say this for you guys (and gals) from Canada, you are very loyal to Excalibur. Can not challenge the quality. Recurve vs Cams...that is the honest debate.

Thanks again,
Mike

PS Just got back from a great walleye trip to the Hudson, ON area. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$....Gas was a killer.

Good Point:

I will probably be using my Terminator ground blind more now that this rotator cuff injury may keep me out of the trees.

Thanks,
Mike

Greetings everyone. I am a new visitor planning to buy either an EC Phoenix or Parker Buck Buster 175#. For years I have hunted with a compound bow using fiber optic sights. I do not understand why it is so important to have a scope on my crossbow. If you are going to shoot less than 30 yards, why d...
