    And yet, no one would believe me that I got my deer with a cheap RTH Cabelas x-bow at 129$ and I could not be happier....
    I did feel at times the need for faster and greater range bow, but the satisfaction of getting on your hard worked target at close range.....oh man, priceless. I prefer to invest in my skills, not my tools

    Don't get me wrong, I love the new features, but there's no way in hell I'd ever send 4K on a bow, not even 1K to be honest

    I shoot a cheap RTH compound and didn't fill my tag (but learned a ton, suffered a bit), I'm not a big believer that spending dollars gives you much advantage. Learning with the tool you have is the key. I didn't even notice the price of that thing 4k is a bit rich for my wallet!

    Amen to that brother !

    It took me 3 years to get my 1st deer (dec 31st this year) 15 minutes before last legal shooting time, but each time I was a step closer.....and closer until I finally connected the dots
    I've had great help from this forum, plenty of kind fellow hunters sharing their hard earned knowledge, and the only thing that I never blamed for my "un-success" was by xbow
    I knew the range, speed, noise and I practiced often with the proper broadheads, and now I think I'll stay with this bow until it breaks

    Good luck and don't ever stop learning!

    This crossbow will be perfect for the guys using the trail cams that alerts you that there's a deer coming.

    I don't see anything wrong with a 500 fps crossbow (or a cellular trail camera). Technological advancements are part of hunting, or we'd all still be using rocks and clubs.
