The more I look at it the more I like it really. I plan on testing it when my local Excal Dealer gets one.
Looking forward to the verdict!! :thumbup:

....I stand by my previous statement....this is dead on arrival or as Dan has said....it is a boutique item!

.... and OBTW, in The People's Republic of New Jersey, the anti-crossbow people have kept crossbows out of 3D shoots....according to them they are sure shots and just like a rifle......this will only add to the furor...

....I hope the states do NOT allow it....our American Indians and Fred Bear must be rolling over in their graves!!!

One of the things that I like about bowhunting is that you get ONE shot. It is the challenge of it all. To each their own I guess.

Take for instant you practice all fall and in about 8 seconds and one arrow and it is over. That in itself is so cool.

Start video at about 14:30. Here's one of the best bowhunters in the world. And I bet nobody would fault him for taking 2 shots in less than 15 seconds.

Just think, it will reduce the chance that a limb failure will end your hunt by 50%. :lol:

Not the opinion I thought this certain person was going to have on it. Which is a good thing. I think lots of guys will warm up to the idea of it once videos and reports of successful and saved hunts start coming in next fall. Or even this spring with turkey.

A touch of frost has heightened your awareness and your heart steadily beats in anticipation. Your senses are suddenly alert to the movement on the forest floor and you realize that the moment of truth is at hand.

I would like to shoot one before I make any comments on the bow but as for me for that money I would have liked to have seen an air gun from Excalibur.
