A survey on the Relayer

Does anyone have any comments on the camo on the limbs?

I don't mind the Realtree AP camo. All black limbs would look nice too. IMO.

I love camo, and I love that stock..
Together I think they look a tad out of place though, understanding of course that those are the limbs Excal makes so naturally they would be the ones that get used.
I agree with enormous, black would be sharp, so would brown.
I hate to be picky about something so beautiful, but you asked.

black with maybe some laser engraving detail would be sharp

You need to see the Relayer in the flesh, the limbs do not look that out of place. The prototype that is in the picture is a bit lighter wood than one of the production models I've seen so the limbs match quite well. Every bow will be unique in its own way, there will not be 2 alike! To make the limbs black would mean to just paint the limbs and not coat them using the Kolorfusion process therefore the finish would be less durable and not fitting for a crossbow of this caliber.

Having a crank that would work on the new stock would be handy too.

Glad to hear it. The picture makes it look like the limbs and stock don't match very well.

I stated in an earlier post,,, The wood stock for the "yester years" and the camo limbs for "modern day",,,,, I like the looks of the Relayer,,,It has that "Deadly" classy look,,,, If I had the $$ I'd place the order..
