Default RE: Parker vs Horton

According to post elsewhere, Horton is on the rocks financially. Moved part of it's operation to China and is allegedly up for sale. (Reorganization?) The crossbow market is highly competitive, hard to survive on just crossbows. Barnett seems to have captured the lower priced market, while the bigs: Bowflex, Excalibur, Parker and Ten Point are slugging it out for market share. Several others like Darton, PSE even Coleman are nibbling at the edges. Given the uncertainty about Horton's future, I'd put my money down for one of the bigs.

I knew there were 300 exercises that you could do with a bowflex, but I didn't know one of them was hunting. Makes those "Perfect Push-Ups" look like a complete rip-off. Jk. I know you meant Bowtech.

That's what happens when a poor typist couples with a 69 yr old mind.

Default Horton Vision

Check out the Horton Vision for a mid price crossbow. It compares with the Parker Tornado, about 100 dollars more for the latest technology. Buckeyefootball

"about 100 dollars more for the latest technology."

Whatever happened to the 'price point for performance' mantra you been spewing?

Yes 20 years of bow hunting and yes I shoot to hunt that means to stay sharp, the 10 ring in the 3D world. Deer with a vertical or horizontal they are so close to the same thats why they are both bows. Buckeyefootball
