RE: Choosing my Excalibur..
Well, than it appears as though it is all settled. In just a few short days you guys gave me every bit of information I needed to make a choice, and a good choice from the feel of it.
I have spoke to the shop I chose to deal with and the ball is rolling, soon you will be seeing my record breaking game.[&:]
I don't know why I waited 35 years for this sport.

RE: Choosing my Excalibur..
Ipicked up my cross bow yesterday, Thanks all!
Excalibur had sent me to a dealer a few miles from the factory, there I learned a couple different things. The gentleman I was speaking with has access to any crossbow out there and choses to hunt with the Exocet, that was comforting.
The other thing he explained to me that never crossed my mind is that the Phoenix is just a tad more accurite, and his reasoning made good sense. He said the force being applied to the arrow during the initail shot temporarily distorts the arrow, the Phoenix uses slightly less force resulting in slightly less distortion resulting in slightly better accuracy.I am not quoting his words, they are just my memory of the conversation.
Also, hewas sure to point out that the difference is so minimal that very few would notice it.
It was a well equipped shop with highly informitive staff, not that my recomendation means much at this point, but Excalibur also recomended them.
