Re: Brown Vixen

When the deer hide brown color was introduced across the entire Excalibur line, all the bows still had the straight machined risers. At least that is what I recall. I have a deer hide brown Exomag with that riser.

Re: Regret selling my carved tip exocet

Not quite sure what everyone is lamenting. My first bow was a new 165lb Exocet, carved tips, cast riser. When mag tip limbs and carbon arrows became available, I upgraded to both. With the changes, it chronographed at an even 300 fps with that set up. Never noticed any change in accuracy. I have sin...

When I was a kid, the Big 8 out out of Windsor was the king. How many remember CKLW?

Re: Green Bay Packers

I am a long time Cowboys fan (insert boo here), but jumped on the Packer band wagon when the playoffs started. Even with my unlucky charm, they still win. :lol:

Re: Where to buy 2213s?

I just checked my locker and found a half dozen shafts with inserts that I bought from the Nook and never used (made the switch to carbon). They aren't fletched though (as I do my own). If you are interested PM me.
