On the website it says that after removing your old stirrup and subtracting that weight that it adds only 8oz's to the total weight.

8ptbuk Custom Flemish String
Spynal Tapp 314gr 18" Bolts

Now then, get your equipment, your quiver and bow, and go out to the open country to hunt some wild game for me.

....that is what he claims...the front rail cap (plastic) is removed along with the original stirrup and hardware and the new stirrup along with its hardware is added...although it is noticeably heavier...I have no problem with it...nor does it feel front heavy...but this is only MY opinion...

Greetings. WOW was my first thought. Looks different, for sure. I am interested in it. However, double "what the" on the price tag. $90 :shock: My main concerns are, How will it effect the balance of the bow and if there would be any problems with fletching clearance, in the guard...

This forum truly emphasizes, whether realized or not, a great deal of Christian values through kindness and love of one another that every other forum I've ever been a member of severely lacked.

I was reluctant at first, but I am extremely grateful that I joined this forum.
I agree that this forum is outstanding! I've learned a lot here and hopefully have given a little back. I've found "Doug's Boards", primarily a smokeless powder muzzleloading forum to also be an agendaless forum. Some of the members here are on both boards. The fact that this board is sponsored by the manufacturer of the crossbow is impressive to me. At just the right times and with great finesse , problems, or perceived problems in some cases, are addressed by Peter.
I'm glad I FINALLY joined the Excal family! I'm such a slow learner!

Well so far I've emailed the doc stirrup site via there internal contact email and so far twice no reply no nadda.

Not exactly making me feel all warm about maybe spending some money on something from them.

The first time was a couple months ago after boofest and I gave them the benefit of the doubt with getting situated and setup.

The second time was yesterday and still nada.

Got a confirmation for a email subscription but that was it and the way I'm unfortunately feeling right now I'm just gonna delete anything from them.

I don't expect a business to bend over backwards etc for me but at least reply back.With some type of reply

Sorry maybe I'm somehow the odd duck out on all this. Don't know but not waiting around any longer to find out

Be patient SD, I met Gaston at Boofest and I can assure you he's not trying to slight you. I'm sure he's doing his best to get everything up and running while trying to work out any glitches on the computer end. He's a shooter and hunter like us. Give him a break and hang in there.

Hey Ed... Paul is 100% correct with his assertion... I too had the pleasure of meeting and talking to Gaston at Boofest... I am sure he is just running crazy and that is it... On the other hand i'm sure he is not aware just how impatient we people from Jersey are! ....and please just don't ignore us!... :mrgreen:

Understand guys that I fully understand someone being busy and having their hands full. Without getting into it, trust me I fully understand.

However, after two months I think it is and no reply and then no reply to me just to see if he got my first reply.

I'm not bashing the guy but something might also be up with his system too and he might not be getting anything either.

I eamailed him a few months ago as well and never heard back then last week I noticed that my bumpers had cracks in them and need replacing so I decided to email him again and offered to pay over the phone since the website wasn't up and running yet. To my surprise he called me on the weekend and made the offer and I accepted. I'm sure he's just really busy trying to get everything in order and I'm sure he's had numerous emails about the products he's offering. I'm sure once everything is in order you'll hear back from him.

Update: Gaston called me personally this morning and after playing phone tag I got the chance to talk to him directly.

After talking a bit he offered to send me some stuff for my Micro which completely surprised me.

And from what I took from my conversation with him he's probably a real pistol in person. Straight and to the point but courteous and genuine at the same time.
