Which Crossbow to get?
« on: January 13, 2019, 02:49:17 AM »
Hello! I'm searching for a quality crossbows. I'm a beginner and I found few interesting bows at https://bestontests.com/best-deals-on-crossbows/, but I'm not sure which one to get? I'm interested in Barnett, what do you guys think?

Heard Excalibur crossbows are pretty good but don't know much more than that.

May I ask why crossbows? I saw that you mentioned being a beginner, beginner to crossbow hunting or hunting in general?
Never argue with a stupid person, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

I'd ask what is your budget?  There are good bows for $300 or you can full bore and spend over $1,500 for a Ravin.
For Barnett, look at the Whitetail Pro STR. Sturdy, light and shoots 22" bolts. I also like the quiver to hold bolts parallel to the stock.  Less likely to snag on brush.  :twocents:
