Crossbow

Looking to buy a crossbow. I checked out the Horton Tacoma Package at Bowie for $199. Is this a good deal or just junk?
Is anyone else looking to purchase one. If so what type/brand?

I'm looking at a Parker, but it is around 500 bucks. 200 bucks sounds pretty cheap for a crossbow. Most of the time you get what you pay for.

PSE

I've been shooting a PSE Stingray for 6yrs. I love it!!! It's 31" axle to axle, 70lb draw, and 80% let off.

Xbows

Tried a Parker 6 years ago> It would hang up and not fire or would not cock. Brought it back to the dealer and tried another one, same problem. Ended up buying a Ten Point for $1000. No problem with it at all. Super accurate and great safety features. A brand new one today in Cabelas retails for $1999.

crossbows

I have a horton supermax combo. I bought mine at big game pro shop.com and saved over 100 dollars. I love my bow and I have killed a hog and a bobcat with it. I have also missed one deer with it. I still paid like 899$ for the complete package with 12 arrows, field tips, broadheads, soft case, and cocking aide. I will say this I don't think alot of hunters are going to be satisfied with crossbows because of the noise they make when you fire them. I love mine but if it wouldn't be for a back injury I would be shooting a Matthews instead.

XBow

I know some hunters who use the Horton Legend. Supposed to be a pretty good bow.
