Another Excal
 
I bought an Excal Equinox from Wyverns. Havent even shot it yet (all my days off have been cold and rainy) and trying to decide what my next one is going to be.It will probably be another Excal but .... If you shoot or have shot more than 1 CB let me know what they are or were and how you like them, which you liked bestplease.

I'll be staying with my Ibex. If I was going to get a second one it would be a Vixen II. I want the lightest and funnest:D

If you are going to have more than one, think of different hunting styles that you do and find bows that fit each nick. Like I read once, People have bows to carry when stalking all day and different , maybe heaver crossbows for blind hunting and others just for the fun of it. If you just have Excal, which is OK, you miss shooting some of the narrow crossbows which might be of use to you. Just like with the first one explore all you can, thats the fun of buying anything.

The Y25 is probably the best shooting recurve out there. Very steady, very accurate, very pretty, very Excalibur! Of all my 15 or so Excals it is my favorite!

I just took another look at the Ten Points and Parkers. Wonder how many CBs im going to wind up with before the wife decides I have enough.

You won't be disappointed. Had my shoulder repaired 3.5 weeks ago, so been practicing with mt 'little bow.' Been pounding the 5" circle at 50 yards. Sweeeet.

Thought real hard about the Y25. Dave from Wyverns said he could still get a few. I wanted something a little lighter though. Almost went with a Vixen II before deciding on the Phoenix. Keeping the Y25 in mind as my 3rd CB though. And I may be limiting myself sticking exclusively with Excalibur like someone said but its all about what you like right?

Been nothing but happy with my Excal Vortex!

After adding to and changing the order several times my Phoenix arrived yesterday. Due to misunderstanding on my part I still have no broadheads. Going with 100 and 125 grain slick tricks. Just wondering how many broadheads everyone goes through and how fast?

RE: Another Excal
 
If you like to shoot, get a Phoenix or Ibex. Loved my Equinox for the power but it was a bear to cock So I got a Vortex, much better, not much speed loss. Then a Phoenix followed me home after I sold a compound. Shoot that most of the time. Then a Cyclone followed me home, really get there in a hurry. I'm sick, resorted to selling GUNS to support my habit, someone please help me!
