Depends on you. How much help do you need cocking the bow? Some to none, the 50 will work fine. I can cock my 200 lb bow, with a twice-cut back, using a rope cocker just fine...just not all day long. Cocking the 175 on the other hand is a snap.

I don't need help cocking my bow because of an injury or ailment so I use the ACUdraw 50 just for the consistent cock every time. It is a lot fast than the ACUdraw. Both are very good though.

I like the Acudraw50. I do have bad shoulders andhad operations that left them weak.

The crank system is nice, but too slow. I have the GT-Curve and it has a 180# draw and the Acudraw50 cuts that in half. I really don't have any problems cocking it.

I like the acudraw with a crank.It's easy to use in a stand.

Basicly if you do not need the crank I generaly dont recomend it. It is nice in a stand, but generaly you dont really get that second shot, and it is $100 extra for the crank. That is a bunch of extra arrows and some broadheads for that money if you dont need the crank

Does the Acudraw really make this much difference? Bigg~BirddVA Crossbows 31 05-10-2006 08:47 AM
