Crossbow or Compound Bow? Help me choose

Well like the title says, Im going today to get one or the other. Im gonna use it for deer hunting this fall. Never shot either one...

Going to bps so I'll have a little help from them.


Thanks guys..

 

Well a compound bow takes some time to become efficient with. With the season being just around the corner.... I would go with a crossbow. Just slap a scope on it and go the woods

 

I have a pse xforce dream season edition and love it. I can shoot one pin up to 35 yards it slings it so fast. Don't be a sissy and go with a crossbow! I'll be honest it's to damn dangerous pulling a crossbow back to set it.

 

well, you shoot a bow and hunt with it because it presents another level of challenges to overcome. just pulling back the arrow undetected can be a butt puckering challenge. a crossbow, you are loaded and like a rifle..you can simply pull a trigger. granted you share the same range limitations.

so ask yourself..do you want a huge challenge? if so, buy the bow.

crossbows are badass..i'll get one when i cant pull a bow..

 

well i pulled the trigger and got a pse stinger 3g rts package from bass pro.

First bow ever and I think its awesome. Im loving it so far.

Thanks for the advice guys..

 

welcome to the slippery slope!!

 

Enjoy your new bow. I hunt more with my bow than I do my rifle.

 

I would use a bow. Using a crossbow is like using a gun. Bow is a little more fun then just pointing and pulling the trigger.
