Hey all you Excal guys have some questions! I joined the Excal forum a while back but have not posted yet. Was doing some reading and ran across a post on how wide is your Emax. Well one of the things that has discouraged from them is the width thing. They said when cocked they are only 27 3/4" Is this true? I measured my Horton cocked and its 24 1/2, what the heck is another 3 1/4 inch gonna do to me?!! Not much I would think! But anyways back to question is this what your guys bow is cocked at? I understand you have to be more aware of your surroundings when shooting, but 3 1/4 inch extra is not gonna do nothing to ya walking through the woods IMO! AS I say the light is flickering harder, just need a little time is all.

my exocet measures 35 3/4 inchestip to tip at rest and, 29 inches tip to tip at full draw. though i don't know why that one is important. it's the at rest measurement that you must take into consideration when dodging tree linbs....hehe. nice bows they are.......COME TO THE DARK SIDE JASON. mwahahahaha.

My Phoenix is 35 7/8" full length uncocked. Its 29 7/8" cocked. Now bear in mind that where we each have our CB 's brace heigth Located at. One person may have it just above last line and another set down at line by limbs lockup with rail. It wouldn't amount to much an halfinch at most.[]

When I first had the concern with the width I was not worried about it while in the tree, but when I would be walking in the woods, cocked. I have a huge 46 by 54 inch platform on my 23 foot ladder stand so clearance up there is fine. I just thought they were wider then that and envisioned that it would suck walking through a woods with it. But heck three to four more inches shouldn't hurt a thing IMO! Yes the pulling you guys are having is putting an arch in my back and soon will fall to my knees and be sucked in! LOL!!!
