Excalibur Crossbow Forum

Medical dispensation from the state.
Degenerative arthritis of the spine with bone spurs make drawing and holding a vertical bow all but impossible, especially after sitting hours in the stand in the cold...brrrrr
I love the ease of shooting my crossbows but they are unwieldy to still hunt with.

How fast was the Micro before the mods?

Wife and I took up birding so I was looking high end. Found a half price sale on two new pairs of Zeiss'' best HD binoculars, one 8x42 Victory and a nice compact 8x32 Victory. A lot of dough but once and done for life and the lives of my descendants (unless they sell them off) Couldn't pass on the h...

I sold my favorites to fund new more useful knives that I will use more. It was a Dagriz custom. Now i own two benchmades.... one never leaves my pocket(555 mini grip with custom scales) the other has yet to see use.... may be jrs one day.(940 Osborne). I used the Havalon this year and LOVE it.. .....

I also have a Cutco hunting knife and Cutco cutlery in the house. I have only used the Cutco on two bucks and needless to say just a cleanup is necessary and it's ready for it's next task. The other knives I carry in my pack are a couple of different sized Mora of Sweden Knifes...very sharp and easy...

Prayers out to your little buddy...

The mico quills came in at 400gr and the Mission bolts came in at 450 gr (bolt, shaft, point) and whatever inserts are stock. I bought a 3 pack of bolt cutters for ...

Oddly enough on my iPhone and desktop I am always logged in...on my laptop I need to login each time.
Just now (maybe they changed something?) I had to login with my iPhone for the first time...

I just use the Excalibur oil.... Figure they sell it for their bows so it must be OK

Any thoughts on a "tight" spring retainer causing slower arrow speeds?
My Micro seems fine but I have had spring issues on my Mission MXB 360 trying to get the perfect tension on the spring that comes on it.

I picked a blind from asset camo and it's awesome. It was sent back because of a broken zipper. It was repaired and I got it for 100 dollars U.S. And it's fantastic. Sets up in seconds and comes down even faster. Enough room for three and could be used as a tent if need be. As at pattern is outstan...
