Quality crossbow

[Jigstick]

I have started to seriously look at crossbows your use during the archery season. I would like to buy a quality one in order to not have to upgrade later. Most shots would be under 50 yards. I am looking for a buy once , cry once type of option.

If anyone has any first hand experience they would like to share if would be appreciated, even if it’s a “Don’t do what I did”.
Thanks!

Wicked Ridge M 370 if you can find one. Try Wyvern Creations. You will be glad you did!

Excalibur.
I don’t have the experience with crossbows that Xbow does. But my experience with Excalibur is that they are accurate. Stay accurate over a period of years. And are nearly impossible to destroy. Every wheeled crossbow I’ve ever dealt with, cannot boast the same.

Spam makes a good one.

Plus two for Excalibur! Bought mine in 2010 and just replaced the original string this year. Never had to adjust the scope once sighted in. Even after the string change.

I've got a Wicked Ridge 10 point Invader and it's an upper middle of the road bow...I paid $750 for it. It's 5 years old and well used. The scope is a 7 out of 10, but the durability, accuracy, quality is a 10 out of 10. I'd buy it again.

So are you planning on coyote hunting with it? @giles is an expert on inspecting their dens and Ken will give you a great price for their hides, he might even drive to meet you.

Then why not use a high power rifle? I wouldn't travel to TX from OH with a bow. This still smells like Spam to me...
