Horton Crossbow

[survivalshop]

I ordered a Horton crossbow the other day & plan on hunting with it in Ohio this year.

 

Been a long while since I bow hunted with any kind of bow.

I have some plans to compare this & others , with my Chronograph .

 

I will have a week to bow hunt before gun week this year.

It is cool you can use them there here they are illegal for regular season bow unless you are handicapped let us know how it goes.....

I used to want a crossbow bad but it seems the new compound bows' performance have closed the advantage gap considerably.

 

Looking forward to the chrono information!

I just got the Horton cocking rope set up & its like a different crossbow to pull back now , almost like pulling back nothing.

 

Not handy caped yet, you can hunt in Ohio with Bow or Crossbow the full archery season.

 

I also have the new VooDoo bolts coming to try out next to std bolts . This is going to be interesting.

 

I can't wait to bow hunt again . I used a compound bow for over twenty years to hunt .

I've taken a few animals with a compound ,it's a rush that you just can't get with a gun. I've got the fever for a new bow but damn they're expensive now!

Ya, I hear you , I just paid $ 10 a piece for those hot shot crossbow bolts . I still have to pick out a broad head .

VooDoo crossbow bolts are nice & different , can't wait to try them . I have to post some photos .

I have an older Barnett crossbow w/ 150lb draw weight. Thing is really fun to shoot in the yard and in general. I use cheapo wal-mart bolts ($5)  and they group good when I do my part, usually shoot at 20yds. I had a fixed power pronghorn 3x scope by tasco on it, the rings/mount plate were cheap crap and would loosen no matter what. So I took the scope off and now shoot off the bolt(old school style). Crossbows are cool and intriguing, eventually I want a modern rig by Tenpoint's line of cross bows.
