Man what happened? There is a handfull of guys that post often and were lucky to get four or five a day, Go to work yesterday and go straight to bed and get up and see three pages is awsome!! I hope I am not to late for you Rebel Hog because DNK could have tainted ya with the excaliburs, LOL and just kidding. As you will see alot of the guys on here buy and shoot hortons. Mainly because the price and there reputation. I do not know anyone personally that has an excalibur but the guys like DNK seam to like them quite well. I do know two people that have titan ten points and they both had problems and have since switched to hortons, Not saying titan tens are bad just those are the only two I know of. My dad bought me a horton when I was sixteen and I shot it 13 years and only replaced the string once. I bought a new horton super max this year and now my dad hunts with my old one. Never had any problems with my old or new bow. I like hortons and most of the people in my area use them, mainly because Ohio was one of the first states to legalize CB and horton was one of the first big guys to start serving them so that is probally why ohio is a horton state. As for the three inch groups at 25 yards I would be embarassed to say that. Both of my hortons were nock busters and you cant shoot at the same dot because you will start running out of arrows, Excalibur guys say the same thing. I like hortons because they have a larg span on price and all the bows are accurate right out of the box, just read some of green pea and squirell post to see there fast results. That is what you will like about the CB you don't have to be in love with target shooting to get good at it, sight it in and just go hunting. As for your question that bow you showed looks a little cheep to me. Also you say just an old sinner saved by grace, and we have talked in other post but if you are old, I dont know you may want to get a CB with cams on it. I have heard that recurve CB are harder to pull back, not sure just what I have heard. And don't be afraid to get a cocking device, I have been thinking more and more about it lately. Good luck and keep us updated!
