Hmm, is this normal?

Post by TYE »

I was looking at my Pheonix and my Vixen today. I noticed tiny little holes in the limbs on the Pheonix, but non on the Vixen's limbs. I'm not sure how to describe them. Maybe some of you have them on your limbs? The look like tiny tiny little holes and slices. Very small. I would take a picture but I don't think it would show them.

Don't worry Tye.
My excals both (exomax and 175 lbs exocet) have this little holes on the limbs.

It's working perfectly!

If you look at the holes do you see a black color hole or are the holes camo covered.

holes

Just bought a new Pheonix with the scope pkg and its limbs also have visable "grain" of the fiberglass in the surface. I am told this is a normal occurance in Excaliburs bows and will not and does not affect performance or longevity of the bow.
hardwoods in the fall, how good is that!

TYE, probably tiny air bubbles in the paint are causing it to flake off in spots. Maybe something else though. . .
What kinda termites you got in Ontario? :wink:
