I don't use a crossbow much until the very late season where we hunt in some very close spots in suburbia with minimal cover and standing and drawing are extremely tough. Since it's an occasional tool for me, sinking big $$ into one just doesnt make sense.
After reading the tests on 10 xbows in Outdoor life, I caught a WR warrior at Cabelas in the bargain cave for $270.
It lacks the acudraw 52 which I just had my local shop order.
Very nice shooting bow. So far I'm very pleased. The trigger is very impressive for the money and far better than my Horton Legend. Had her dialed in in no time and look forward to ventilating a few whitetails after christmas when our late season kicks in
