    I've bought a Carbon Express Covert 3.4 for the whole family to enjoy. It's been fun introducing it to my kids, and they ask me quite a bit if we can go outside to practice with it. If you haven't seen it already my daughter shot her first deer with it on the episode called "The Machine". Anyway, one of the features I like the most is it has a 3.5 lb trigger tension, which makes it smooth to squeeze, especially for my kids.

    Nothing stands next to the Excalibur... Not even a high end compound... Though they both have an advantage and disadvantage...

    I have a Hickory Creek Mini Vertical Crossbow. Sweet little bow that is different then the rest of the pack.

    I have always shot a Excalibur which i sold this year. That bow had a lot of notches on its belt but it was time to try out something new.

    I have a Mission mxb320, I shoot a 430 grain bolt and if you are careful you can robin hood every bolt, I'm getting me a Mission sniper lite, what I like is you can change strings/cables yourself, plus you back off the weight for my grandsons can hunt with me but more than anything take a child hunting, you will be a kid yourself again. have a great LORDS day

    Just look at my name, lol. I have a Excalibur Phoenix. It is the first crossbow I have ever shot or owned and love it. Also got my first deer and my first buck with this crossbow.

    Have a TenPoint Titan Extreme and a Mission MXB 320. G'kids use them now. Great bows....no, awesome bows. I shoot traditional now but will pull out one of them to hog hunt with sometimes. Won't have a compound again, but I will always have my backup crossbows

    Excalibur matrix 330, 355 and an Axiom. I have toyed with the compounds both conventional and reverse limb and keep coming back to simplicity. The excaliburs do everything I need them to do at the ranges I hunt.
