Lots of good intel from the Demon above.
I have a sling on mine, but do use it to carry the bow often.
I run a Matrix 380 with over-strength limbs.
Tricked out with a Custom Trigger Tech Single Stage at 1.75 lbs, a Hawke aftermarket scope, a Custom Boo string, and Custom Zombie Slayer arrows.
It pushes a 405 grain arrow (dressed) along at 365 fps (chrono'd).
That blows through pretty much any critter it encounters.
Pinpoint accurate.
Having had 3 Excalibur's I highly recommend them.
Easy to work on, powerful and exceedingly accurate.
The site CNP posted consists of friendly folks willing to help.
No egos, no BS, no drama.
Feel free to ask if I can add anything more you want to see...
Cheers,
Nog
