Default RE: New to crossbows

I believe Barnett advises a 125 gr b-head. I know their bows take/need a heavy arrow, and my personal experience tells me your FOC will be better w/ 125 vs 100 gr. I also am not fond of mechs, but lots of guys here are. My b-head of choice is the Slick Tricks, which I doubt you can get at this point in time, may be something to play w/ between seasons. I think 10 pt pushes the Spitfire for mechs for their bows, might want to start there. I would also offer the advice to get your set-up well dialed in w/ field points before experimenting w/ b-heads, and that the real deal shows up at 30 yds vs 20 yds. Good Luck and hope ya get a nice one!!
