Worlds Fastest Crossbow!
Anyone remember when Excalibur was advertised as the worlds fastest crossbow? I'm thinking mid 80's? Any thoughts?

That sounds about right. I was beginning to think I was the only one that did. I remember seeing their ads in the back of Field & Stream and thinking man how I'd LOVE to have one of those! Thanks for the reply Mike!

Re: Worlds Fastest Crossbow!
You knowed that were the days before i ever had a pc. You would read mags to see anything new that had come around. It was in 96 i got disabled n got my 1st Excal an old 96 E'cet 165
Re: Worlds Fastest Crossbow!
Those sure were the good old days! I still would rather look at a magazine than a computer screen any day! Some would say I'm old school. Maybe I am but that's the way I like it! My first Excal didn't come along till 2012 after 30 years of vertical compounds and recurves shooting and 3 hand surgeries.
