Well today I had an older friend that I work with who has been ill ask for a favor. He does all his shopping at a place in the middle of Ohio called THE SPORTSMANS DEN and asked if I would drive him the hour there since he needed some reloading supplies. I went there and was looking at there CB's when what ya know, an Emax, Exocite and Phoinex. I picked up the Exocite first and my jaw about hit the floor! That thing is as light as a BB gun! No joke! I could not believe my hands. I was almost able to shoot it but there was two guys in the range and one guy waiting, and one guy with a broken long bow so I did not want to wait. But I sured enjoyed holding it next to a supermax model they had that is just like mine. It was nice to see the width is not as bad as it sounds and when cocked it is to the point where it shouild not matter. Looks like my sister is going to be unhappy this christmas!

Jason this is just my thoughts but I would look real hard at the Phoenix I personally believe it is the best of the Excals and I have had the Phoenix as you know and now have the Exocet. and have shot the ExoMax. the Phoenix is much easier to cock and is a much sweeter shooter , smoother and less recoil and vibration..
Tell us the truth Jason, you almost bought it didn't you? LOL!!!!
Ya know there are some things I can slip by the wife and some things I cant. Like when I said no more money for the new hunting spot, but I bought a new blind, I can recover from that. But I did look a long time, must have picked it up half a dozen times. But that would be one thing I could not recover from! Still have some things I have to come to grips with first though. Like the quiver mount, have not yet warmed up to it being on the side, and the fact that I will probally have to use a rope cocker, and the fact that I will have a unhappy sister!

Jason so far as the quiver mount you could go with a Dan Miller over the limb quiver or their is a Guy on the Excal forum that is selling or going to be selling a different version of the over the limb mount it mounts the quiver over the rail.. might go over to the Excal site and check them out.
Jason do you really need a quiver mounted on your bow? I always take mine off. I often carry it in my back pack and just bought a hip quiver to see if I like it. I wonder how many people really use their bow mounted quiver?
