After a few guys try them, and get tired of NEVER using the second shot, these will be in the trading post for about 40% of the price! :eusa-whistle:

xcaliber, are you suggesting the fellow we know as amythntr is going to overcome his indignation about a two shot bow, buy one, and then offer it for sale to his friends here?

Well said like a gentleman. I see an amount of poor comments descending upon this bow even though no one has seen it in person, handled it, shot it or seen any reviews. Is it a form of xenophobia? I know it's a departure from the traditional but geeeze guys, get a grip!

No I think Anthony learned his lesson. Of course it took him awhile to listen to my advice, but in the end he sold one of his Assassins and bought two Axe 340s. :wink:

So the question is:
Who will be the first "two knock" one. I imagine that there's at least one forum member on here who's already done so but staying "Mum".

Some like it some don't but everywhere I go people are talking about Excalibur. That's a good thing in my opinion. You never know what weapon will interest a new hunter. For some it could be a scoped rifle for others maybe a pump shotgun, crossbow, air bow, or vertical bow. I would never look down on someone if they were interested in any one of these weapons, I would just be happy they are ready to hit the woods and learn to be a hunter.
Take care

I think some great engineering when into this thing! And as a mechanic i dont praise engineers all that often :lol: If i ever sell my 380 (unlikely) it will be only to buy this bow. I love the idea of two arrows fired at once creating a massive wound channel and hopefully a great blood trail (red-green color blind) I can just picture two FOC's going thru a ribcage.

From what ive seen two shots are only able to happen if you use both triggers at once. I would love to see that 2nd trigger be able to disengage both strings.

Good job excal!!! most comments i read on the interwebs are negative. Someone actually said they would walk the other direction if they saw someone carrying one of these because its and indication that hes a shitty hunter. This coming from a fellow crossbow hunter... :wtf: There are many reasons why someone may want this

It is disheartening to those people who put their heart and soul into something to have it be trashed without being tried .
I agree not everyone may want a certain bow . As one person stated he may not want a corvette but that doesn`t mean someone else doesn`t . :)

I whole heartedly agree Kevin. Kyle is a wonderful person and engineer. He put a lot of work into the bow and doesn’t deserve the mindless, poor comments.

I feel like they will receive their due praise once these bows make into the hands of the public. The general public isn't on these forums, and they are the ones bankrollong the industry.
