I think its great. Cant pull and hold a bow anymore because of arthritis. Just started with cross bow this spring. Its not as easy as I thought it would be. Heavier than a shotgun and harder to raise without being seen. But great to be able to still hunt with a bow.

hello everyone saw post and wanted to share this is my first turkey and i got my first tom with a crossbow..24 lbs 10 3/4 beard and 3/4 inch spurs, got him opening day at 700 am at about 35 yards only advice i would give is to move your bow slowly and get it up way before he comes, with the accuracey of todays bows and knowledge of your own bow, yardage is not a factor.. keep in mind your arrow will more than likely be going through the bird, example i shot this bird at about 35 yards arrow went through his neck and i found the arrow the following day atleast 65 yards if not more past the point at witch i shot the bird at...
