Default RE: crossbows

I have to disagree with a few replies above. First of all I shoot a 10-point Stealth X-2 crossbow. "This is the cream of the crop"!!!
If you ever get a chance to shoot them and try and compare them, you will see the differences. I'm not trying to knock the other brands too much, but they really just are not in the same legue with 10-point. As for the reply about them dropping off faster, that's not a correct statement. I shoot 175lbs, with a 410 grain 20" Goldtip Lazer 2 bolt at just over 320 fps. This drives this bolt at over 90 lbs of kenetic energy. I think you would be really hard pressed to find a compound that can stack up to those numbers. My SQ2 can only launch an IBO weighted arrow at 305 fps. The fastest bows are somewhere around 320fps with a much lighter arrow.
