I was hoping someone could tell me what some of the IBO 3D crossbow shooters are using as their setup. I have read somewhere for instance that the out of the top five IBO crossbow shooters, 1st, 3rd, 4th. and maybe 5th were Excalibur...I think 2nd. was Ten Point. I understand that ultimately its the shooter but really would like to know what these top shooters as well as other crossbow top shooter tournament winners are using. Like to know what model, crossbow weight, arrow/vanes, etc. Thanks a bunch.

The two time World 3D winner Kenny Barr uses an old 175 Exocet.

Didn't Mark Beck win some IBO trourney with a Horton Recon last year?

Kenny, that is really good speed from the Exocet 175. I'm using 20" GT Laser II with 100gr tip from my Exocet 200 and getting 306...but I'm not shooting with your string either.

Congrats on your championships!! and good luck in 2010.

PS. Are you related to Olympic archer Jay Barr?
