Excalibur case
What kind of case does everyone use for their Excalibur crossbow? I noticed that Excalibur sells more than one model and several other manufacturers advertise them as well.Also being one of the newest of the newbies, I would like to thank you all for a great forum. It is full of the kind of infomation that I need, and is a big part of the reason that I decided on an Excalibur in the first place. Thanks again.

Excalibur Case
I use the plain fabric case(unpadded). I have looked at the padded cases but as with the padded gun cases, they are too bulky to handle after walking into hunting stand. Also should you decide to "still hunt" a padded case is a nuisance to carry.
However, if one is travelling by vehicle with other hunters it might be worth the peace of mind to have a padded or hard case to use. This would offer better protection to equipment. In this scenario, I would have the plain fabric case to carry crossbow outside of shooting times as one is walking from and to the vehicle.

I use the soft padded case but I found that my old compound hard case works fine for extended travel by removing the limbs.

i used a compound bow hard case and modified it to fit my exocet that a member here did, plus i added the clear box with nuts and bolts to hold what ever i need to go hunting....just 2 screws to take the riser off and i'm good to go, just don't overtighten them as to strip the threads .................bob

Hi,
Would the Excalibur CB handle break-down and set-up for say no more than 4 trips a year? If it could I'd be able to get by with a bow case, like shown above, or a double gun case and not have to invest in a CB case.
Thanks...
Ps. Though I don't use it often I love the break-down feature of my Bob Lee hybrind longbow. Makes for nice compact transportation.

That's some good thinking on the stirup going through the handle Excellent work.bob1961 wrote:i used a compound bow hard case and modified it to fit my exocet that a member here did, plus i added the clear box with nuts and bolts to hold what ever i need to go hunting....just 2 screws to take the riser off and i'm good to go, just don't overtighten them as to strip the threads .................bob

I also use a compound case & remove the limbs for extended trips but for around the hood i just put a short cable lock (the type you get for a hand gun) around the string and through the stirup and put it in my back seat. Keeps me legal.

About how often do you find yourself using the compound bow case? Do you unstring or must you keep it strng in order to fit the case?skamaniac wrote:I also use a compound case & remove the limbs for extended trips but for around the hood i just put a short cable lock (the type you get for a hand gun) around the string and through the stirup and put it in my back seat.

I use the Excalibur padded one like this one:

I was going to say I dislike the side storage as the zipper is on the bottom and when you open it every thing falls out. But by the looks of the picture they just sewed mine on upside down or they have changed it from last year. It also needs more padding around the scope area and hard plastic behind the padding in the scope area for my likes.
