I see one in my future.. Lol

The Strata package is what you handled this weekend. A cool camo and less money because of the lack of some accessories.

I wonder what the release date will be? Perhaps before deer season?

....well I finally got a chance to shoot my Assassin at LaFesta.....1st shot "bullseye" at 20 yds.....then I was a little high, a little right, a little left....later realized that i didn't have batteries in some of my firenocks....wind was whirling around and the company was too much fun at the pavilion so I never shot again.....

....I am very impressed with the Assassin....HOWEVER, in all due respect, one does have to get used to it and go through the correct motions of making sure you wear the strap, making sure the "cocking", "release" lever is in the correct position....making sure you get the double click when you bring the mechanism down to the string....

....changing the string, once Danny Miller and me put our heads together, was easy.....

....this is a new bow, with new processes....once you get it, you get it.....If I could do it anyone can.....

....very impressed!

I think it's the most effective camo any bow maker has ever used. Next to ASAT, I think is second best and better than predator camo. It really does give a third dimension to the pattern. The second picture is Strat camo on a jacket that I bought last fall.
Well done Excalibur!

Ya I like that. If money were no object I would buy a whole new gear setup in that pattern. Very cool

It really isn't bad after you've gone through about 10 cycles. While the wrist strap may seem kinda dumb, my thumb doesn't think so :eusa-naughty:
