Looking for some ol info on an older bow

Team Virginia · 03-10-2008, 08:44 AM

I have 2 XI Legacy's both are 80# pull. My dad shoots one and I have one just sitting around. I cannot find any info on the specs for the bow. I am looking for proper string length tiller, axle to axle, everything. One of the bows tunes perfectly with an oldTM hunter rest butwill not tune with a new QAD hunter rest.
Any info someone can give or if you have the specs for the bows it would be greatly app.

Mathews Legacy isn't even remotely close to the same as an XI Legacy. Don't even bother going there.

I can't vouch for the accuracy of the info, but check this out. Unfortunately, it still leaves you looking for axle to axle and brace height. For tiller, read the thread pinned to the top of the forum.

Call Mathews and talk to a tech. 608/269-2728

It is not a Mathews product. It is an XI Legacy no longer made, company out of business.

The string is 59 1/2" the cables are 41 5/8" as for the tiller it will be different with each bow. The one thing I will tell you is timing is very important. The top limb needs to be slowed down because of the shorter distance to the arrow rest than the bottom limb. The offset on my bow was the top cam was slowed by 1/16" and I measured that from the string. Used it as my 3D bow for years. Killed as a few elk with it also.

I just realized that XI was bought out by Escalade Sports, the people who own Bear Archery. Maybe you can find out something from the customer service folks at Bear. Might be a long shot, but it's better than no shot at all.
