Re: Followed me home... Pro-Shot ACP trigger
Have you shot the bow with the Pro-Shot trigger much yet Chris?

Re: Followed me home... Pro-Shot ACP trigger
I shot it a quite a bit the first week I had it. Then I went south for 10 days mid March , and have not shot anything since then.

Mine was just delivered, can't wait to get home and install it.

Kind of bummed that you don't get a new blue trigger lever like the ACP Standard Trigger. Excalibur charges the same price, so why couldn't they toss in a new lever for the Bulldog guys? Then I'd know my blue lever bows had the ACP, red lever bows had the TT, and black trigger bows had the stock trigger.

The new blue lever just sucks ergonomically, the way I felt it.RobD wrote: ↑Fri Mar 29, 2019 2:29 pmMine was just delivered, can't wait to get home and install it.

First , it is too short for normal fingers.
Secondly, it has round edges , lacking a solid feel.
Thirdly, it has no stippling like the stock or TT and is prone to finger slipage.
Lastly, the trigger unit should have been anodized. The cheap blue paint job gives it a cheap slippery feeling.
Excal cheaped out on this essential trigger part.
Your not missing much.

Re: Followed me home... Pro-Shot ACP trigger
The could not make the trigger longer because they had issues with some bows and the way the trigger pivots.Normous wrote: ↑Fri Mar 29, 2019 8:07 pmThe new blue just sucks ergonomically, the way I felt it.RobD wrote: ↑Fri Mar 29, 2019 2:29 pmMine was just delivered, can't wait to get home and install it.

Re: Followed me home... Pro-Shot ACP trigger
I saw a simple fix and suggested it to their engineers at the ATA.
We shall see what next years unit looks like after all the complaints they are going to recieve.

Re: Followed me home... Pro-Shot ACP trigger
Just got it installed today, plus put the scope on that I want to use. Didn't get to shoot it because of the high winds and cold weather.
My linkage did not look bad, still had round holes. The instructions said replace the shoulder screw and wave washer on the linkage. Mine only had a screw, I could see where a washer would take up the slop. Also, the head of the screw hits the frame in the trigger resting position. Why would they put such a large headed screw there?

Re: Followed me home... Pro-Shot ACP trigger
My guess would be that some engineer said there had to be a specific head diameter in relation to the shoulder diameter of the screw.RobD wrote: ↑Sun Mar 31, 2019 7:11 pmJust got it installed today, plus put the scope on that I want to use.

I put a nylon washer for the linkage, no more slop.RobD wrote: ↑Sun Mar 31, 2019 7:11 pmJust got it installed today, plus put the scope on that I want to use. Didn't get to shoot it because of the high winds and cold weather.

Re: Followed me home... Pro-Shot ACP trigger
Night and day. Your right. There was no travel... I only had time to send a few bolts down range but the trigger breaks almost as soon as I start squeezing. The old stock trigger on my bulldog 400 felt like I pulled an half inch or more before I felt anything. Thanks for the info gentleman!!!

In the bulldog 400 that is... that is my biggest complaint about the stick trigger. Feels like I pull forever!!!
