Check This Out!!!
This was posted in the Bowhunting forum by a entrepreneur with a cool idea. The first part of the link talks about Compound Bows, but the last half is the best. The guy built and modified a Excal to shoot bird shot and six inch darts. The clip is eight minuets, but well worth the download!! This is a must see!!

I saw that, it's awesome! There's a thing made by bowtech that shoots paintball and i think it can shoot pellets too. I'll try to find it for ya...

RE: Check This Out!!!
The crossbow part went several pages on Excal forum about a year ago. Was not well received. I got into it w/ inventor via e-mails over the shot thing. I personally think while this is cerainly innovative, it won't help the xbow movement at all. The 6" darts are not practicle for hunting as the vanes are the b-head and sit about 4-5" back from point.I think the inventer was kinda miffed as Excal didn't want anything to do w/it.

Well how about the fact that the pellets are going so slow that it would only hurt birds rather than kill cleanly?
But it is a cool toy! |

Very interesting, The 6 inch arrow reminds me of the iron bolts they used to shoot through armour with in the middle ages, I don't think regular shot would have enough enegry but flecthets would be deadly. Lee
