RE: Stryker
We usually hit the same note, so I was not as worried about you as much Dan. But thought mainly Tom may have misunderstood what I was trying to say about Excal and comparing its marketability to Bow-techs. The trigger issue is new to me with them. I knew of the limbs not holding up, but what is the story behind the triggers?

good post, Mike. Imho, there is alot more game taken w/ xbows shooting under 300 fps than there are over that.

I am trying to wean myself from so much computer time. Stryker's are having big problems with triggers that are failing. Plus limbs are splitting!
I don't really understand this got to have speed! Reminds my of my youth and drag racing as a poor boy. Speed within reason is good i reckon, i have an older Vixen. She sizzles with her arrows about 230 fps!Don't tell the 2 Bucks fell to her swiftness!
I will shoot a deer if its a clear n clean shot out to 35 yds. quick!

Just got word that they are starting to send out completed DS xbows. Remember I was told 2 weeks around Nov 2 when mine went back. It's now a month and 2 weeks later. Had my dealer not sent me a replacement I would be in jail by now. Maybe this is the last of BT problems with the DS model. Who knows? And who will believe them anyway?

RE: Stryker
Need to put in my .02 in...If I were to spend that much money I would buy the Phantom from 10point being how 10point is a CB maker and what Ive read is a awsome compound without the problems....except for the price......Check it out.....very nice........

RE: Stryker
DS is $900. Phantom is $1600 or so. 50% more. I will say this when the DS is working there is nothing that compares to it out there. I got spoiled in a hurry shooting it. The size, lack of noise the accuracy it's all there. I shot a deer the other day and the rest just stood there and looked around. Almost hand cocked it and got a second one. As much as they pissed me off I still love using the thing.

RE: Stryker
Like I said BB its the price,but your paying for a top of the line CB tried and proven....And I have nothing against the DS ether.....I just cant see spending the 1600 or 1899 for the Phantom ether[
]..Iam waiting for 10point to come out with a Recurve.....But I think thats like waitting for Excal to come out with a compound
