    Come on guys.....listen to the OP. He asked about a good crossbow he was not asking for your advice on whether he can shoot it and hunt within city limits. We are so quick to judge, label and spew on about something we know little to nothing about - NY State Hunting Regulations.

    Personally I prefer Excalibur - you might want to loot at the Micro series. I shoot the Micro 335 and personally love that bow.

    Glad you two are so critical of others trying to learn about bow hunting in a legal way in their own areas.

    Did you know that bow hunting is allowed within the city limits of Ottawa? Ottawa is a massive city, they have different discharge laws for different areas. They used to have hunters come in to cull deer in an area that is federal government land bounded by subdivisions on all 4 sides.

    You cant go wrong with Excalibur. Find a use one if money is an issue.

    in the united states they have different open season dates for different states./

    they even have something called a youth only season where only youth can hunt and harvest a deer.



    the OP is asking about crossbow options not about if hes allowed to hunt where hes hunting. stop arguing about stupidness

    Excalibur is a good option.

    What?

    How is hunting in an urban setting not hunting?

    I don't even know how to respond to this post.

    I fail to see your point.

    Again, careful on the advises you give here... as NY has some very restrictive Xbow legal regulations. One of them is 200 lb max. draw weight.

    With compound crossbows you get speed, easier to pull back, and they're quieter.

    With recurves you get lighter weight and ease of maintenance.

    I would avoid those 400+fps recurves though, their limbs simply wont last as long as a compound of the same price. For budget crossbows, Barnett, and killer instinct. For mid budget ($1000+) I'd recommend Excalibur, killer instinct, tenpoint, and barnett has some good ones too. The killer instinct SWAT and Micro series are good.

    As for high end crossbows, Scorpyd and Tenpoint, ravin has good ones but they're always the most expensive.
