Exocet200 cracked limb
I was looking over my bow yesterday and I found a small crack on the left limb close to the riser. I never dry fired this bow.
Do you guys think it is safe to keep shooting? I still have few days of deer season left here and I need my bow.
I sent an email to the guys at Excalibur…

cracked limb
Looks to me like a splintered limb.
I am assuming you took off the pads to check to splinter better?
I would use it for the last few days without practice shots, you should be okay. Then get it taken care of. IMO.

Yes its just a defect in the limb, we were north moose hunting one of the guys with an exomax had the same problem, he used the bow for the rest of the hunt (week and a half) and then took the limb back to excalibur and they replaced it for him. Id just use it for the remainder of the season only a few days and then fix it as soon as its over. Happy hunting.

Thanks guys, I will use it till the end of the season and than will take care of it... I am sure Excalibur will stand behind it's product.
A friend of mine shoots a Barnnet. He had to have his limbs replaced because of dry fire incident. He sent his riser and Barnnet put on new set of limbs. Got the bow back and after few shots he had a small crack again on the limbs. He is also waiting for the season to end to send it beck to them.
Thank you Gentleman and MARRY CHRISTMAS to all!

That's the exact splinter my Exocet did, I spoke with Dan Miller and he said as long as the splinter wasn't bigger than a toothpick it could be used as normal until the end of the season and than sent in for limb replacement. He also recommended breaking the splinter off and filing the rough edge smooth. This problem is exactly what I posted about a few months ago when asking about a potential limb problem, reason being was 3 of us bought EXCALs at the same time and the 3 of us had 5 splinters within 2 months. EXCAL could give us no reason for the splinters and limbs were replaced with exceptional service. As in your case, no bows were ever dryfired.

What probually happened is that they had a mistake on what model (year) of bow you had and that is why they shipped you the version you received.Doe Master wrote:It looks like they shipped you an older limb , I would contact them on monday.
