I'd really like to have a good,used Parker 175 lb Terminator or Safari Magnum. The brand new ones (package deal) are in the upper $500 to mid $600 range. A little out of my range. For me to slither  over to the dark side, I'll have to buy used. Are there any good sporting goods stores in West and Middle Tennessee that sales used X bows.

The Excalibur Exocet 200 looks like an awesome shooter!! But I know nothing about crossbows....other than i want one.
I've read some good stuff about the Ten Point brand. They're expensive. Good luck to you as well Tnscooter.

Just for shopping and comparison, take a look here:

Notice that you can get a new complete setup in the $250 - $350 range. I don't know what used prices are. I have a PSE Copperhead and like it.

I can point you to the best prices on excaliburs I recently did the reseach and bought the thumbhole version of the Exocet The Vortex. I am in love with it.

It has a 3x scope ( with lines for 20, 30, and 40 yards) already mounted. Had the quiver, 3 arrows, and everything.

8up, I would like to know of your research, I hunted with a horton supermag last year for the first time, and liked it alot. Figure I would rather keep trying to save to get something nicer than another older model. Thanks, Scott

Kevin Tenpoint makes a great bow as well
Tnscooter63, "Western hunting online" (best scope prices overall)has the best prices followed closely by bowhuntersuperstore.com Dan miller at horizontal archery is the US rep and I got my arrows from him as well as a few other things. I actually got my Vortex from ebay new in the box from ebay ID archconnection shipped and insured it ran me $420 but I did go thru a couple of thier auctions until i got the price i was willing to pay. The excalibur forum is a good place for knowledge. I would be glad to help you find the best prices in you know exactly what you want.
