I'm looking for information on crossbows .
I'd rather hear from guys that have used crossbows and have likes and dislikes about the ones that they have used or are using now .
If anyone has one up for sale I'd be interested in hearing about it .
Thanks !

bummer, just in time for the season to be over.
question, what extras did you get with it?
crank I hope, at least a tree cock. setting that thing can send a man with a bad back or hernia to the emergency ward, That is unless you got the little one splitting fire wood every day. [:p]
let us know how she shoots.

It came today , one shot with a feild point went right threw the 3-d target that was as hard as cement in this cold weather at 20 yds.
I'll still do the compound bow during early archery season but in this late season , this is the way to go and still remain warm .

you need to stay away from that twilight zone.
I was on this board yesterday and the day before and this post was not here, and yet here it is with a time stamp from two days ago, Weird count I give is a 9.0
twenty yards, that is plenty good enuff, just keep your zone inside of 30 yards. From my understanding from when I looked in to them is the foot pounds drop drasticaly after 30 yards.
