From what I have seen DTM will go out of his way to satisfy his little fan-boy group.
The rest will be left wondering why they can't get the same when so many glowing reports keep getting posted on the forums.
Joe171 pretends to care about his Excals takes every cheap shot he can.

From my vantage point, I see that DTM has had the opportunity to move forward but failed miserably in securing Bohnings' support and partnership.
So now he is back to beating the same dead horse and expects a different result.

I have not nor will I ever buy a DTM product. He has never shown himself to be a class act.

You found that out also huh? They appear to be disposable cameras if you don't have the newest model.

All the advertising and all the hype and they got no customer service? wow that sucks!
Its a shame folks bad mouth something just because its not their brand.Awshucks posted in another thread that he had been "warned" about the dings etc showing much more on the black finish. I am pretty sure I got the same talk from the same guy. The general gest was that ALL Excals have some minor imperfections from the manufacturing process, but the camo finish hides them really well. Color one black and its a different matter! It shows every little thing."He" wasnt trying to sell one color over another but just to inform the buyer ahead of time that there may very well be some small imperfections that are now visable that they wouldnt have noticed on a camo bow.( I painted the limbs on my Exomax about a year ago. Before I painted I assumed they were perfect.After the paint job I could see several minor things that obviously do not affect performance and were there all along but I couldnt see before.So I have an idea what he is talking about)Summary is they dont hurt anything and have always been there but you couldnt see them.

Is the GoPro an off-shore product??
If so there is the answer.

I have not looked at such a product yet and time will tell if some of the big names come out with a more stable product.

I was having a charging issue, turned out to be user error. Learned that you need to use a specific USB, generic ones don't work.
Took two weeks to get a reply email, but they did warn me they were busy.
Problem is, it's such a cool product, I would buy another one.

I'm good, but thanks. The only mount I don't have is the tripod mount.
What I need to order is a camo housing, or skin.

I have to admit was looking at a Middleton. Maybe because I like the made in Canada thing. But the customer service sucked. It took 3 weeks for a rep to get back to me for a shop that stocks them. I looked at that and thought I dont care if it was hunderds cheaper. Ill but one with good CS.
And it was proven when I have a scope cap brake. I explained that I was the second owner. But the bow was only a couple months old. I was willing to purchase a new set. The rep said dont worry, and sent out a new set. And if I needed anything esle just call. Now thats customer service. Now if I have to purchse a nice pink one for the wife. I know ill be gtg.

the people doing all the complaining here about middleton are no better than those flaming excalibur crossbows on another forum. some have even went as far as attacking someone trying to sell a middleton crossbow in the classifieds, which is totally unnecessary and immature.

i fully understand why some dislike middleton products and i'm one of them, but there's a difference between disliking something and going out of your way to attack someone for buying a certain brand.

i could honestly care less what brand someone chooses. all that should matter is they're happy and enjoying the sport.

You quote me ch, but I didn't say a dam thing about the Middleton for sale, not until the original poster , the "guy with only one post who took advantage of the trading section" resorted to calling everyone "retards". Yes I posted some links in there. The most I'm guilty of is keeping his bow that was for sale at the top of the trading section.

And yes Middleton is a swear around these parts. Doesn't take a whole lot of homework to figure that one out. Post a copy there and you'd be silly not to expect some backlash.

The strong dislike that I have towards any of the companies that founded their bows on excaliburs success doesn't translate to the buyers of those bows. In most instances.

Wish I did "bro", I'd be laughing. I laugh a fair bit now as it is at times like this, but the difference is I'd be rich too.
