NewBe to Crossbows
Okay guys I need some feedback on Crossbows. I've been an avid archery hunter for years I have a pretty good idea what to look for in a bow and how to tune it, build arrows etc. This past year the game commisson in PA approved the use of crossbows during the regular archery season. I'd like to keep my purchase around $500 for a complete setup, what kind of features should I look for? What about a scope? Are the sites fixed or can they be adjusted for multiple ranges like on a compound bow? Is there some kind of de-cocking mechanism? Figures I just bought a new compound 2 years ago

RE: NewBe to Crossbows
I really have no experience with crossbows or what you should look for. I think one of the more important features is some type of aid to pull the string back. I've heard that consistenty in this leads to accuracy. There is a crossbow forum under the archery boards that would probably help you out more. Good luck on sticking something
