Thinking about getting a crossbow

[idunno]

Louisiana has revised their regs for 2008-2009 hunting season to allow crossbows. What would be a good one to start hunting with?

Look at all of them, whatever fits you the best, Tops in XBows, TenPoint and Excalibur great customer service and great bows. I have a Excal that I will keep til I die.

Depends on the amount of money you wish to invest in. you can buy used CB's as well as new. some very good investments would be in no order here. excal-parker-ten pt. also if money isn't an issue desert stryker

I don't know anything at all about xbows. What kind of features should I be looking for?

[DaGriz]

warranty, arrow speed, accuracy, reliability, customer service, reputation of the manufacturer, how well it fits you, ease of use in al hunting situations. and absolutely last is price!

[coyote170]

What DaGriz said,make sure it fits you and the customer service is the second most important thing!

[Cossack]

Excalibur Phoenix. Reasonably priced. Fast enough for most game you'll likely hunt. Simple recurve design, easy to maintain. Change strings w/o press...even in the field. Accurate to a fault. Reliable. Lifetime-no questions asked- warranty. Great support. Nuff said.

[Sparhawk]

DaGriz pretty much said it all.

Thanks guys...
I'll keep all in mind when I go to purchase mine

now this is me and no one else, ok! i own 2 excals and i love them. if i wanted a compound CB, i would get a Parker Buck Buster. recurve i own the only brand i want. so thats how the rat ate the cheese![]
