The Barnett Predator is a lot like me: small but hefty. The bow weighs right at 9 pounds and measures two feet wide by 37.75” long. Once I added a padded sling, I was able to carry the bow for several hours without too much discomfort. ...
Welcome to another x-bow review, this time for the TenPoint Carbon Phantom RCX. TenPoint has a solid reputation for building top-of-the-line crossbows, but you’ll pay for the name on their signature lines. Let’s examine the Carbon Phantom RCX and see if it’s worth the money. ...
Compound crossbows usually take some time to assemble, however with this particular model I found the process really simple, thanks to the very detailed instructions provided by Barnett. It’s just a matter of attaching the quiver mount (this should be the first step), attaching the bow assembl...
As mentioned previously, TenPoint has designed this crossbow to be extremely light and easy to use. The integrated cocking mechanism works flawlessly, and stows out of the way when it is not in use. The crossbow’s trigger is a nice, light, smooth pull and the bow is almost perfectly ...
