[QUOTE="Bone Collector, post: 5593493, member: 7419"] This is why I started using a Crossbow. My current crossbow is a Ravin R10. I had always wanted one and finally got it. I like that it is a bit longer (I'm 6'2") and it is a tack driver. It shoots 400 FPS I think. It also allows for de-cocking which means you don't have to shoot a filed point arrow into the ground or carry something to shoot it into in the field. My first two crossbows were Barnett bows. Barnett sells more crossbows than any other company last I checked. The reason is they make bows that are the cheapest on the market all the way up to right around $1,000+. Obviously the higher end ones are better quality and the lower end ones are not as good. I had a lower end one first (wildcat C5) and killed a bunch of deer with it. The limbs warped (my fault) and they gave me a new set for free. I got a more mid range bow the second time around (drop tine) and killed a bunch of deer with it too. Never had an issue out of them, though as many as they make and sell you may hear that they have issues, because of the law of averages. [/QUOTE]
