    Default Dialed in


    My crossbow blew up last year while trying to get a second shot on a buck. First chance I've had to shoot it with all new parts. Started out high. Dialed in at 20 yards with broadhead.

    Make sure your hunting knife is sharp, because it looks like you'll be using it. Good hunting. Don't forget to post pictures of your successful hunts.

    After posting that shot you’ve got no excuses if you miss.

    Less than 6 weeks. No excuses needed, unique endings to circumstances just naturally occur!

    I lobbied to get crossbows legal for use during bow season in Florida. Really like mine. Some of the expensive ones are shooting at 550 fps. That is lightning fast and they are deadly accurate. I didn’t want to spend all that much so got a Wicked Ridge that shoots at 305 fps. Lots of friends who have never shot before do a bullseye first shot. I think I would rather be shot with a pistol than a crossbow.
    Maybe they will bite this one……

    looked at a few but the cheap versions are 300 and a quick one is 500 , that is bare bones , with a bit of frills added it could be way higher , might just stick em with my 30 06 another year or 3 , just saying .....
    none the less at 20 if it dont jump the string it is a done deal from the looks of it to me .....

    I was a diehard traditional bowhunter with my recurves, longbows, and selfbows. 2 shoulder surgeries pushed into this crossbow. It is still hunting and keeps me in the woods. Some of the new ones are insanely fast and expensive for sure.

    I have been considering one myself. Definitely a very broad market
    The love for fishing is one of the best gifts you can pass along

    I’m in the same boat. I used to love shooting and hunting with my traditional bows. I even had one custom made just the way I like it. Two shoulder and one neck surgeries later, they sit on the wall like art, while my crossbow gets to go hunting.
