"The new Relayer is 1 lb heavier than the exocet 200 so you're looking at 7.4 lbs.. Bill has already killed stuff with a Relayer Y25 and really likes the way it shoots. ITs a bit heavier but very stable."

You should email Peter Belfou and ask if the crankeroo can still be used.

The stock is beautiful but I have to agree with Pydpiper in that I don't like the camo limbs with it. They look like the new camo for the Vortex and they just don't seem to go with the laminated stock but again that's just my opinion and beauty is in the eye of the beholder. What someone don't like someone else will. Regardless, I still wouldn't mind owning one and I agree with the majority in that I don't think I'd like to take it hunting because just one scratch would lessen it's value.

Lemme try this again, damm "fast reply"

I'm thinking of getting one. Rumor has it that they will retail for $750 in USA, and that they will only make 75 LH models, which I'd need, being retarded. [Just got a pm telling me lefties are retarded, lol]I also don't care for the camo'd limbs w/ wood stock but I have a plan. Since all Excals from Vixen to Emax use the same limbs, I'm betting Bill T put the same ones on this goodie. I can paint the limbs on my Phoenix or Emax black and put them on the retarded Y25 LH and along w/ a "Boo" FFF string and refletched MK's w/ 2" Blazers have a dandy 3-D bow at about 320 fps. I'm gonna beat Smoke at 3-D if it takes every nickel I got, lol. He's a tough old coot w/ a crossbow!!

I really like the way the bow looks, just the way it is. My original Relayer has a camo limb, very basic or primitive (it was first model they did LOL). The one thing I do not like about the bow, but it will not really matter to me because I can't see me owning one, but you would not be able to shoot opposite hand if the deer or animal comes in on your back side. What I do now is just shoot left handed (I am normal right hand shot). Last year, my second turkey was shot left handed, it came in from my right side. With the stock on this, I doubt that it will be easy to do that.

But I do think that a black stock will look too plain on this bow. Maybe an original black & white primitive style would be a better fit in over all design.
