Them D loops look like bits of para cord, not being tight or anything but I could make my own have lots of para cord, or are they thinner then standard para cord.

this one will hold the arrow better and it wont slip or missfire....if it releases in the wrong direction it could be fatal.

Thank you FG and one thing I want to add I am ashamed of myself with that bad release that’s why it has not been used since I have now moved my range to another part of my garden and this has added benefit of next door out building backing on to it, I have built range wider as well.

I think I will maybe go as far as to take this bow to the woods and learn it there.

RE: exocet200 x bow
the bows just half the tool .... stand holding it ready and just practise drawing it back to your cheek/lips .... and get used to it ... did u check the draw is the right length as your arms pulled into position ... at 30 meters that bow will kill whatever it hits.

Some more information for us compound noobs.






FG is pure bees wax ok for strings, or should I buy a branded type.

I did not check the draw is the right length I just bought it and shot some then had a mishap then went back to my crossbows until I could get a safer shoot.

RE: exocet200 x bow
FG I tried tonight to install peep sight it seems the string must be made loose although no YouTube vids are showing this am I correct in thinking this?

I don't have any instructions with this bow so it’s like very new to me, I am thinking just get a new string and pay to have it all done.
