After you talk to that evil Chad <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_evil.gif border=0 align=middle> you'll have both on order soon <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>. Either one is a great choice. Good luck, I've bought 2 bows in the last month(2 Crusaders). These will be my winter shooting projects<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>.

Go to the following link and you can see some pics of my 62&quot; Crusader.

To say I love it would be a gross understatement!

Praise the Lord, He is worthy

I used to have a raven and I now have a hunter II t/d and a T/d Crusader. I have found all chekmate bows to be excellent bows. I draw nearly 30&quot; and the 62&quot; crusader works great for me but the raven was a little too short. I think you would be served very well with either bow but I am more partial to the crusader.

I own 2 crusader, and many other bows, and for the buck you'll be hard pressed to find a better bow! Bows in the tune of twice as much dont out perform this bow, and it looks just as good! Not to mention is a Td also!

My buds wife has the falcon which I have also shot, and again for the buck its hard to beat! Marc does one heckuva job! I just wonder how the man hunts at all with the amount of bows he puts out!!!

That said, its like anything else, what I like and John Doe likes, you may hate. Get your hands on one if at all possible! I doubt you'll let it go!

Check out the caribou hunt, Oct on this link and also the 01 deer, both of which were both killed with one of my crusaders.

The sheep and moose of this year where both killed with my crusader.

Thanks to all for the info...going to make a decision as to which to pick up first, but will be trying one of the Check-mate bows in the near future.

Thanks again
Brian

Good luck and happy shooting.

Let's see if this works:
