I had to chose between the two and i decided that the Defender was the best for me. It's more compact, Lighter, it felt more comfortable than the stryker and there is a 500 price difference.
Now, it also depends on what game your going for? Are you only going for whitetail? If you plan on going bear hunting, then i would choose the stryker, otherwise i wouldn't give up the defender. Me and my friend shot 5 shots at 50 yards and there was only 2'' spread! I is very accurate! I love my DEFENDER! |
Youve gotten the best advice you can get,Call Wyverns 603 659 0575 and yes the Defender will take any big you choose to hunt.

The small size and low noise of the Bowtech Strykeforce makes it a pretty good choice for a hunting xbow. I had a Barnett and that is enough said on those. Never had a Parker but they have a great customer service dept. Try each first and go with what feels best for you. |
I have the StrykeForce and I must say it is an awesome crossbow. Accurate and low noise (relative to crossbows) Low vibration, oh and did I say ACCURATE.:). It is a fantastic all around hunting crossbow do to its narrow A TO A and nice balance.
One piece of advice I will give ( umm make that 2 pieces of advice) 1.. Call David wyvern like the others said. Best phone call you will make in regards to crossbow info. I MEAN IT. 2. Get or atleast look at Hawke sport optics line of crossbow scopes. THey are the bomb. I mean that too. Ask David as he has these too. Best of luck Good hunting Brian |
....I did call DAVID @ WYVERN.....

I am in New Jersey also and I got a Parker Cyclone. It is an awesome crossbow.
I know a few guys with the Parker Tornado and I am sure you would be happy with it.  |
I have a Parker Buck Buster 175... All I can say is " I love this bow"

Grayson retains the old restriction to persons with an upper-limb disability during the archery season. See News Release |
