Yes you can order from him He is probably the biggest and best archery dealer online He has more knowledge than anyone else when it comes to crossbows. He is super honest, very helpful and a real pleasure to deal with. no pressure to buy anything. You can look at his website www.wyverncreations.com

yep deal with him or if not, at least stick to one of the better name brands like tenpoint, excalibur, parker, etc.

Well I bought the barnett recruit. its a 130lb draw, 300ft p/sec and 80 ft lbs

seemed perfect for me. Its small light easy to draw.

question is, is it good for boar hunting?

It's a tad late to ask I'm thinking. And a tad light for pigs IMO.
