That was the last compound I owned. I shoot a recurve now but I absolutely loved my XI!

They used to have some great bows,then they had some really bad bows that would come apart,literally and even break in half.They didn't take care of their customers or dealers and now they are history.

I seen a few come apart at world, national and state 3D tournaments. I can remember one of there pro's who always came with 3 back up bows because he never could get through a week end with one bow. TFOX do you know who I'm talking about. Tru- Ball has a release named after him.

They are REAL close to me.Escalade sports was the owner of XI and now owns bear/jennings.I used to drive right by them on my way to work so there were ALOT of XI's floating around this area.

There is actually a shop on the same corner lot with Escalade that sells,Hoyt,PSE.They used to sell Jennings.At 1 time they were in the same building.
