Right now he is either hunting, thinking about hunting, preparing to hunt, or talking about hunting and crossbows.

Also, what ever happened to Hunting The Backwoods Videos by Excalibur? The new Excal videos on the hunting channel aren't as good as Dan and his bunch. Win some, lose some...we've lost some awfully good ones....Bill, Dan and his bunch etc. Us old farts enjoyed those guys. Comes with getting old. I liked the bright/dim button being on the floor in my car too. The world changes, but it isn't always for the best I don't guess...Cheers

Bill and Kathy were happily at the ATA. They are still involved to some degree.

Bill and Kathy are now synonymous to royalty. Just like QEII runs the UK, so do they run Excalibur. :wink:

My first car had the floor mounted high beams switch, which if I had not lived in a climate that used road salt it probably would be a good idea lol mine was rusted solid lol

A few years ago, Bill told me that both Kath and him were now retired. But he was still involved with research and development. He also informed me that the new matrix bows were Rob's idea but he was involved.

As far as I know, BillT is still involved, but with a behind the scenes kind of way. This enables both Kath and Bill to enjoy what they have developed.
