The ULTIMATE Crossbow Setup (and Why!)

[@pauliasselin3102]

What are you using for the Swat replacement Strings and Cables?

[@Deathbybunjie]

A new set from the same company, the ones they sell now are the right ones. I bought this extra set when I bought the crossbow. Unfortunately it's not uncommon for manufacturers to put stuff out there without them being thoroughly tested in this day and age, I guess. But it really likes the sets they sell now.

[@stwrtscot]

Rich! I hope you read this comment~ Because of your review I laid aside my Ravin R26 and bought this bow. Also bought the Trident pure silicone grease, and too found it very hard to apply. So, I went in and found one of my older bolts, looked through my gun cleaning attachments and found a "30 cal." swab that actually screwed right into my bolt! Long story short - cocked the bow, dipped the swab in the grease, ran it up the rail track one time, totally lubed the rail areas needing lube, job done! Swab can be removed from the bolt, placed in a small plastic baggie and can be attached to your uncocking bolt in seconds, totally transportable resolution to lubing the rail on this magnificently designed bow. All that said, I still have my R26, however this bow seems much more "carry friendly" and love the added bonus of foot stirrup serving as a stand. Watch all your and Genevieve's videos I thoroughly enjoy and look forward to them. Thanks for your efforts!

[@MichaelLakota-vc4tk]

Hey stwrtscot The purchase of the swat will not disappoint! I do have a challenge for you however. Get a B E Zombie S and cut it down to 17” add a lighted nock and a 150gr..swhacker. Forgot to mention a 80gr brass insert and everything should be just inside the limbs

My son and I had a great first ever crossbow hunt in Indiana with the Killer Instinct Boss 405, and harvested two beautiful bucks. We chose the Swhacker broadheads because of your videos and they performed perfect. Had it not been for your channel and website I don’t know if we’d have been so successful. Thank you, looking forward to more informative videos. P.S. since we flew from Alaska I didn’t like the size of crossbow hard cases so I took my crossbow apart and put it in a double rifle case.

[@terryhamus2277]

I have been shooting an Excalibur since the 405 came out. It has shot nine bucks since my wife got it for me on our anniversary. I had to replace the limbs after the first year and it's been good since. I'm now looking for a new one and I think it's going to be a mission the main reason is because they put bearings in the cams instead of the limbs I don't know of any other crossbow that does that including ten point or raven that's how I made my choice it should last me the rest of the time I have left.

[@swiftarrowoutdoors]

I'm really glad the Swat X1 is working out great for you. Killer Instinct has left such a bad taste in my mouth over the years when it comes to quality control on their crossbows. Having owned 4 different ones and 3 out of the 4 not making it pass say 50 shots on each of them with broken limbs, cables breaking etc. Going from heavy arrows to light arrows, nothing would make them shoot or perform correct for me. Plus, their customer service is non-existence. Heck even their own FB group is mostly issues with the crossbows they make. I just had to look at different companies to see what else was out there. I really like the look and style of the Swat and would love to get one to see how it does but so hard for me to spend the funds on a company that I personally had so many issues with their products in the past.

[@Deathbybunjie]

I totally get that, that's why they make different ones, good luck out there!

Hi Rick, just a thought. I am 72 and recovering from cancer surgery. Missed archery season this year for that reason. Looking forward I see a limited number of seasons in my indefinite future. I love my Excalibur crossbows but I think I need to go to something lighter and more compact. I do not want to spend a fortune with it being uncertain if or how much I can expect to hunt going forward. What I would love to see is some reviews (that can be trusted) on lower to mid price range crossbows. I would love to see such reviews from someone trusted - such as yourself and your daughter.

I just watched your rant about Excalibur and have seen some of your other misgivings in other videos. This year I am hunting with my father in laws Horton just to prove that I actually enjoy hunting/want to continue before I drop real money on my own setup. I had been leaning toward Excalibur for the simplicity and so was surprised by your video. Is the whole lineup problematic? Or is it more an issue with their higher speed crossbows like the assassin extreme? My local archery supply only sells Excalibur because he got tired of dealing with the warrantee on strings from the ultra high speed models from various manufacturers.

[@Deathbybunjie]

Our bad experience was with a 355 micro. New limbs are an improvement maybe? We'll see. But I prefer more speed with a heavier arrow than the excals can provide anyway, and I don't want a crank...so there's that, too. Different strokes for different folks!

I got a question I have a mag 340 I love bought a micro 380 thinking about selling it and buying vital x what you think of that bow your opinion?

[@Deathbybunjie]

I really like the Vital X, shot that and did some videos on that last fall and our next video has some of that crossbow too! But here's last year's video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iGWyq4qlopV4jbcsi=MS5tJRyGi3no0B8P

@@Deathbybunjie thank you

[@robertandrews33]

It is my understanding that Burris has a software update that fixes the battery drain

[@Deathbybunjie]

Yes, that is what I am told also! I guess you have to send it in for that which is a good idea to do in the off-season perhaps.

Would u have a link or name to the racket tool used for set screws?

Hey buddy what is differences between the do and x1 you have

[@stevenhicks815]

The xp and. X1 what is differences

[@Deathbybunjie]

The X1 is the newer one and corrects some problems with the xp, i believe. It is a bit smaller and easier to handle, the crank system is better from what I am told, and it is a lot quieter. The XP shoots a little bit faster but that was one of the reasons they had problems with that model, I am told. I really like the feel of both of them. But the X1, the only one I've owned, no real complaints so far.

@@Deathbybunjie thanks buddy

[@arlingolson]

There should be no drain on the battery when you aren’t using the scope!

[@Deathbybunjie]

Agree 100%, I am told that it is a firmware update to fix it but you would have to send the scope and have that done.

Too expensive for us poor boys lol

[@Deathbybunjie]

I get that, the crossbow though you can get for around $619 when it is on sale and you use a coupon code and a $100 rebate from the company. And the Scopes are really coming down in price now as the season winds down.

[@chickimac1]

Get you some lithium batteries..may get more life out of them

[@melvingreen7733]

Just rub it in

😆 lol just really liking this thing AND sharing some issues with it at the same time...don't forget it was a rough summer with the scope and all, getting to this point!

@@melvingreen7733 LOL that's great, thanks, I have to admit that's mostly luck on my part and just picking the right place and time, but I do take credit for making some decent shots haha

[@chuckmiller8916]

Thanks for posting the video. I can’t tell if the serving near the loops on the cams is coming off…they are spread out but not loose. But I think I will get the string replaced. When I get back from my work trip, I’ll bring it to local pro shop that services KI. Kind of disappointing to tell you the truth as I just bought this bow a few months ago but, I guess car manufacturers sell you new cars with tires these days good for about 30k miles max. Nothings ever really “perfect” anymore.
