Re: Maybe it's an idea...

Merry Christmas, TS. There is a moderator and Peter, the marketing dude, reads and posts on the forum when he sees fit. To get definitive answers, why not call the factory directly? Excalibur is a rather transparent company, they don't have much to hide and they host a forum where people can troll ...

Re: Has the new riser fixed the limb issues on the M405??

Good question.(topicstarter) I also want to ask:

Do they send also a new riser in case of braking limbs - M380?

And do the new riser reduce in speed?

Re: A little experiment with original limbs vs blemish

Nice picture, but i don't see a special thing about your bow / limbs.

You're wearing camouflage in combination with bright orange?

Re: A little experiment with original limbs vs blemish

Can somebody tell me what 'blemish' limbs are? (I really feel stupid now.)

Boltcutter vs Slick Tricks

Shooting accurate on large(r) distances... most people will say Slick Trick is the better broadhead here. Personally, I wonder which broadhead is more accurate at large(r) distances, because: - both are fixed broadheads with a small diameter. - both have the same kind of shape (triangular with a hol...

Re: Can I use the old string yes or no?

Thank you very much for helping, 8ptbuk and Boo! I will use my new string on the bow. The problem is: my old string is used for one year and between 500 - 700 shots. Personally, I find this very quickly to change a string allready. (or is this normal?) Some people on the forum said that the reason f...

Can I use the old string yes or no?

A few months ago I broke my left limb-tip. I've got 2 new limbs from Excalibur and I wonder if I can use my old string yes or no. Please look to the following things: (See photos) 1. The difference of the loop (length) between a new string & the old string. 2. Is the old string looking good enou...

Re: Speed test results Matrix 380 & Bulldog 400

I don't want to make a point. It is just some information about speed in combination with different weights and lenghts. Maybe some people like to see this comparison. But about the different names: that's not a bad result for your 380! (The Matrix 380 used on youtube should be named Matrix 340 than...

Re: String use after broken limbtip.

Thank you all for your help!

Quote (Boo):
"Take a good hard look at the length of the loops. Long loops can cause limb tip damage..."

Do you have a certain size for this? (inches) How long does the loop goes before I have to change the string?

Thanks!
