My 380 is no where close to being as easy to cock as my Ibex was Serving, mine is holding up quite well as I have about 200-250 shots through and its still in good shape but at that high poundage its going to have a shorter serving life than an Ibex.

.5 difference in limbs is acceptable. That is the deflection on your limbs. There is .5 difference in my limbs as well. I have no idea what happened but my GUESS is you might of had the arrow up against the ADF and not the string. ADF catches the string and had enough force to bump the arrow away fr...

Like everyone said don't shoot it.

Boo also has some videos on youtube how to re-serve a string. You have to have a way of putting tension on the string. I use my old vert bow press but serving a string is something everyone should learn to do. Will save you a lot of time and money.

Congrats on your new bow and for a great cause!

Without some type of new recurve limb design that allows for great speeds at less poundage I don't know who could cock back a 400fps matrix more than one time. I'm quite certain they have made a bow faster than the 380 but its bound to push 300lb draw weight. Even if I could cock it I'm not sure I'd...

I'm sure they will, question is when. The matrix series are great bows but they are aggressive and there is a large market for lower poundage along with the current bows.

I don't post on here often so many of you don't know me well. Just wanted to say how great Excalibur and Woodys CS are. I had a splinter in one the limbs on my 380. Anything can happen, even to the 4x4 of crossbows. Dealer called Dawn at Excalibur on Monday, by Thursday at 11:00 Woodys had the new l...

Nothing wrong with the old standard excals :) Had a vortex, then got a 380, then a 355 now I'm back down to a metal rail Ibex, will be keeping that one and planning on ordering an Ibex SMF or vixen in the next month or so. Until they come out with some lower poundage matrix my 288fps Ibex will get t...

Look darn good on that bow!

I was asking the same questions back in March. I decided on the Axiom because I liked that more traditional stock feel. The Ibex stock just didn't feel as comfortable and I read that there could be a bit of a problem with the safety and gloves in cold weather. I haven't shot my Axiom much yet, mayb...

Nice shooting! I love the weight and balance of the matrix series...pretty awesome bows...

Go shoot and don't worry about it, just cosmetic

Nice kills Never heard of a squirrel season in May. My kids would love that!

One word....awesome!

Prayers sent!
