Deer hunting BS thread

Anyone here have a crossbow they like?

I haven't looked at crossbows in 10 years so not sure where to start. Thinking about getting something that doesn't weigh a ton and maybe 180lb draw weight.

 

My wife has the cheapest Barnett made, she loves it and has killed several deer with it. I have a Carbon Express, I like it but it is awful heavy.

 

Depends on what you want spend....you don't need to spend a mortgage payment to get quality

 

Thanks! My carbon express is heavy too. Thinking about passing it on to a younger hunter and getting something lighter and less bulky

 

Centerpoint Wrath 430, very good and will not break the bank. I would however change the scope, & bolts

 

You're right. Let's say $500 or less to start

 

Whoa that looks sleek! I like it.

$500 may have been a bit naive...

 

I can afford any crossbow on the market, yet I own 3 centerpoints

415 Patriot
425 Patriot
Both of these are the same just that the 425 is a little faster
430 Wrath

They all have a Hawk XB1 1.5-5X32 SR

 

Centerpoint 425 comes in different model names, but they are all the same
So, the 425 Patriot I have is sold at Walmart only, I got it on clearance sale for $100 in March

 

I have a 10 point for 20 years, very badass weapon, a little dated, but itz so damn accurate and hard hitting, no need for me to upgrade, but them new ones....sure are schweet...

 

Great thanks! What is your max distance on those?

 

Lol. I've only heard good things about the 10 points

 

I'm good out to 70 yards but thats a target, on game nothing over 40 yards

 

I need to target practice with my bow(s)

 

cant do it enuff..

 

2019 was the last deer i shot with bow

 

2019 was the last year I hunted with a bow, shot my 2nd biggest one with a bow and haven't had it out since to hunt.

 

Dem kids growing like weeds

 

Yes sir they are and I'm getting older

 

Me too
