    I’m looking to purchase a crossbow for my 10 year old daughter to hunt with. Any suggestions?? Not looking to spend a whole lot of money. I appreciate any feedback.

    My first crossbow was the center point sniper 370. Pretty nice bow for $200 some I thought. Did a number on the one deer I took with it.

    I think it is a good idea to get a kid started. As kids grow, they can move up to a compound bow that can be adjusted to conform to local regulations. My wife doesn't hunt but I bought her a Diamond Edge bow that is adjustable from 7 to 70 lbs. and adjustable draw length. Good hunting with your daughter.
    Aside- Got a laugh when she first shot it. Fair group but I asked her about the position of the peep sight. "Is that what it's for?" After she used the peep sight, her groups were much better. BTW, first time she shot a X-bow, she shot three bolts. First and third were a Robin Hood! Got photos.
