DAN'S COMMENTS
"Be prepared in a budget bow for bulky dimensions and a heavy draw weight. Make sure to lube and wax friction points regularly for decent life.
The adjustable butt stock mimicking a familiar AR platform, along with durable construction and a quality scope, puts the Fang HD above other budget bows."
"TenPoint is a proven brand in the crossbow market, they produce SOLID bows.
The Turbo M1 is a legendary model with decent dimensions, and their ACUDraw 50 Sled cocking device cuts the draw effort in half!"
"Ravin has changed the crossbow game with several key innovatoins. Bottom line...I've never seen a bow that you can hand to a brand new shooter and have them pierce pop cans at 100yds in half a dozen shots or less.
Plus the safety features...this flagship R10 in its own class."
"Ravin just refuses to let the 'Rules' hold them back. I've not been able to shoot the R500 yet, but the design is awesome, 3.5" wide when cocked is crazy and breaking 500 FPS?? c'mon...this is by far the coolest bow yet!"
"Excalibur is 35 years old and one of the orginals. These bows are nearly indestructible and so simple to maintain or repair. If your hunt is far from a bow tech, you better have an Excalibur.
These micro models are the full package and frankly the only reason it's not best of the best is the HEFTY 270lb pull to cock it."

Check-Out ALL the Details Behind these Category Choices in our Crossbow Selection Blog
Crossbow hunting participation has grown significantly in the last decade as many states have now removed all or most restrictions related to crossbow usage during their archery seasons. Over that same time, crossbow design has gone through a seemingly space age evolution as well. In our little shop on the east side of Sidney, NE we now see a tremendous number of people interested in taking up the archery sport with a crossbow but do not know where to start. Read the full guide on the decision points we lead those folks through, along with showing our pick for the best in each category.
