[QUOTE="Rakkin6, post: 5303673, member: 23863"] I used a compound for 12 years but recently switched to a crossbow. I've had surgery on both shoulders and wear braces on my wrists due to carpal tunnel. I have the strength to pull back that is not an issue. It is the holding back that hurts a lot. Even with an 80%-90% let off I still can't hold back for more than a few seconds before I have to let completely down. It's strange, it's like when I lift weights I can't use a barbell anymore or it tears my right shoulder up for the rest of the day I have to stick with dumbbells. Docs said it is just the motion/form of certain movements will always be like that. That being said I really can't sit back and say I am against crossbow use while using ok me myself. I know that some of the crossbows they are coming out with now are crazy. Shooting over 500 fps which is insane.bhtnthey are also $4,000 dollars so I don't think I will see a lot of them in the woods. [/QUOTE]
