What to do now?
Well I seperated my AC joint. Doc says its not likely that I'll draw back on my Brown Bear Bow now. But I understand that there is a disability in that area and can use a crossbow now. So what to know and what the best for the buck?
Thanks for tips...........

With the mult-a-range scope package it is a good bow! 20 inch bolts and 100 grain spitfire broadheads. Acurate from the box.

Barrnett has some fine bows. the quad 400 is a fine bow for the money.I have the 300 and they upgraded the limbs for me to the 400. there warrenity is the top.anything wrong,send it back, they send new.
mine was just over $300.00 for everything except the broadheads. mine has taken 13 and two gobblers and the wife has taken 4 deer and 3 gobblers, 4 hogs.
thats why they make ford and chevy's; everyone is different.

I shot a horton super mag for about twelve years and just this year I bought a new super max 175 and I love it. The thing is so good I put the scope on and was able to sight it in no time. It is a true nock buster. Its pricey but you wont be dissapointed.

RE: What to do now?
I swear by my Horton Legend. I've hunted with it three years (since I blew out my shoulder). I've taken 2-130 class bucks and about 15 doe with it. I tried a Barnett (brand new out of the box) first and it almost blew up in face. Thank God I heard it creaking and threw it on the ground before the limb snapped.
Horton is good value for the money. Ten point has a nicer trigger but I don't think it's worth the premium.

om what I have read on other sites the 2 best are Tenpoints and Excalibers Tenpoints has probably the most safty oriented crossbow out there, And the Elite and ProElite both 185 lbs draw weight will shoot a 420 grain arrow 313fps and if you want just sheer speed and power the Excalibe at 225 lb draw weightwill shoot a 350 grain arrow at 355 fps.. if you want what is probably the best made and can afford a custom made crossbow the look into a Robin Allen custom job..

TC,,,, how much of a difference have youfound between the 300 and 400 limbs? I have a 300 and haven't thought about doing a limb upgrade.
I have a chronograph and have put my alumnium bolts through at 337.5 FPS. I haven't put my carbon bolt through it yet but I know from practice last fall, they fly faster.
