A percel arrived today and yes I was like a kid in a Toy Store , courtesy of Lancaster Archery .......... I am now the owner of a HOYT EXCEL 21" RISER and TRADTECH LONGBOW LIMBS , also in the bow was a stubby plunger , Cavelier champion II rest which I now have to learn how to set up . Any help much appreciated and also a Sims S-Coil mini . All thats missing is my Woollen Puffball string silencers and we are good to go .
First impressions are , what a beautiful riser the Excel is and the Tradtech Longbow Limbs look great ....... what should I set the Brace height at , Hoyt recommends 8 1/2 " in the Manual , does that sound about right ??? .
Pictures will follow later today
Congrats

Loving This Bow
nice bow!
Nice bow, got one just like. I will try to check the bh today and see what I have been shooting it at.
Is that the riser they show Fred Eichler using now? I know he shot a Palmer, but I thought I saw him shooting a Hoyt somewhere.
Buckeye....the bow Fred Eichleer shoots is a Hoyt Buffalo that he helped design. You cannot put anything but Hoyt limbs on the Buffalo.
Hey Buckeye , exactly what Bill said :) . The Excel Riser I'm using is ILF , the Buffalo uses Hoyts own limb pocket design .
ckanous , I've set the bh at 8 1/2" and seems to be good , but would like a comparison , so that would be nice .... cheers Buddy
nice looking. Them excel's are sure starting to grow in me. A purchase may be in the future.
Congrats on your new toy.
Nice looking bow. I'm gonna have to try an ILF set-up out.
