Thanks forthe comments Guys. Made no decision yet.
Excalibur's could still be in play. What would be a comparable model?

The dealer actually steered me to the Ten Point. Mzybe there is more profit for him there.
Excalibur models were sitting right next to the Ten Points.

Point well taken on the cocking on the ground. Eliminates the need for the crank ACUdraw. A rope I suspectwill be fine for me. (Saving = $130.)

As far as string jump, do I understand this correctly-- up to 30 yds no problem but out to 40 or 50 yds need to aim low?
