[QUOTE="Outrigger, post: 5323409, member: 2601"] I own both and I am very close to 69 in relatively good condition, so I will give you my thoughts. I occasionally target shoot with the crossbow, but invariably go to my compound to deer hunt Just because I find it more fun. If you are in good shape and have the time and commitment to develop skills with a compound, I would recommend that you go that route. If it is just a passive interest you have, go with the crossbow. A fifty or even forty pound compound will kill a deer all day long. Far as that goes, a forty pound recurve will do the same. Like I said, my compound is my go to for hunting, but I am considering a recurve for next season. [/QUOTE]
