Re: MET A TWINSTRIKE AT THE RANGE TODAY!

There are pros and cons to everything in life. So one has to personally decide if "the juice is worth the squeeze". Regarding the TS, it can be seen as "double the pleasure, double the fun", or the inverse, "double trouble". It's all about one's personal point of view. ...

Re: I just HAD to ask...

I've had one for a few years now. It can come in handy. If not splitting the pelvis, it saves one the time and effort of not having to "free-up" the colon with a knife.

Re: Time to get fired up!

I just picked up an Exomax from fleabay for $230.00 delivered. Brian, now that's what I call a STEAL. At that price, you didn't even cover the value of the bare bow, let alone all the accessories. To think it was shipped at that price, is mind boggling. Good for you. You deserve a big pat on the ba...

Excalibur Customer Service

I have been an Excalibur owner for over 32 years. The number of times I've had to use Excalibur Customer Service has been few and far in between. Just recently I had a minor issue. Like all the previous times, the service was excellent and the turn around time was very quick. Even with their growth ...

Re: Should I buy a $300 Exocet 200?

That advertised bow is very familiar to me. Like stated above, it's a Exocet 165, painted in 4 colour "house camo", and has a 15" draw length. I know because it's like the second Excalibur that I bought back in 2001. The only difference is that this one has a machined riser instead of...

I hear that they rout up everything. Perhaps I could use they on my property to dig up all my unwanted rocks. :think: :lol:

Re: Any tips appreciated

Having a dominant eye that is opposite to the way one aims creates a problem. Although your nephew could adapt to keeping both eyes open, he'd be compromising and wouldn't achieve his potential. Since your nephew is only 10 years old I'd recommend that he switch to match his right eye dominance. Wit...

Re: O/T ...Can You Name This Critter????

Yes this caterpillar is what is called the HICKORY HORNED DEVIL, it turns into the REGAL MOTH which is also called the royal walnut moth. The regal moth (Citheronia regalis), also called the royal walnut moth, is a North American moth in the saturniidae family. The caterpillars are called hickory ho...

Re: Exocet similar to ??

yes there was an earlier 175 lb. Exocet. It had a flat riser as opposed to the forward riser. Earlier still there was a carved tip Exocet. It was a 165 lb. bow and you need to shoot a Dacron string on it because of the tips. Those are all nice bows. For $200 if it is in decent shape it should be a ...

Re: Special run on discont. bows, would you buy?

I agree that a new run on the old bow wouldn't sell but a new possibly magnesium or drilled exo,matrix, micro configuration similar to a gearhead ultralight would definitely get some attention. My idea of the ultralight crossbow has fallen on deaf " ears for years" now to the excalibur en...

Re: What's the value? (Exocett 200)

If you think someone will pay $700.00 for an old exocett I say good luck with that! But in the end it's worth what someone is willing to pay... lol Jeff, I agree with you, I'm not saying that anyone is willing to pay $700, but that's what I personally believe that it is worth.

Re: What's the value? (Exocett 200)

Top dollar I would say $300.00. The Henegar stock alone is worth more than that. In my opinion, the Exocet is priceless, I own one and will never sell it. To answer the question of a fair price, since it's a classic. I would say at least $300 for the stock, and $400 for the rest. Unfortunately, the...

Re: Welcome to license/permit/tag/stamp season.

I spent $10 to apply for a Missouri elk tag and I was not one of the five who were drawn. Other than that, as a landowner with more than 75 acres I get 4 archery deer tags, two archery turkey tags, three firearms deer tags and two firearms turkey tags - all at no charge. It's good to be a landowner...

Re: Special run on discontinued bows

I wouldn't pay todays prices for a classic Excalibur. that's because I already own one. :wink: It's the Exocet 200, which back in the day was more reasonablely priced. It's a sweet shooting crossbow, and I'll never sell it for any price. However, my personal favorite was the Exomag. It also had a 20...
