I doubt North Dakota will ever allow crossbow for use with archery tag for everyone, but I'd sure like to try it. I better send a gift card to my Dr and setup a visit....
I was pretty worried about the whole rope cocking thing the first couple times I'm not going to lie! Felt like I was putting my fingers around a rat trap but they are in fact very simple to load and extra safe. Now its no big deal, just be careful with pac boots loading it and make sure your toe is all the way in the loading hoop. Like Prairieghost I also upgraded to a Hawk scope, pretty darn nice. That and I bought a $20 discharge target bag at scheels. I don't think you can buy a pistol grip for it. But the AR stock in the rear is slick, just puch in the button and it moves back and forth. Oh one last thing I bought was a cradle that mounts on my tripod. I've always wanted one for a rifle but they are $$$. Then Primos came out with this and it works awesome for $30, mounted right on my bogen tripod! :;:cheers

That sniper 370 comes with a sling and yes it has studs for it. It's a quality crossbow, don't let the price fool you.

Telescopic sights, range finding devices, battery- powered or electronically lighted sights or other electronic devices attached to the bow, or the arrow, are not permitted (exception: lighted nocks and recording devices which do not aid in range finding, sighting or shooting the bow are permitted).
What kind of crossbow does Daryl use on the walking dead that's the one I want to use.
your broad head needs to be at least 25 grams heavier than what you would normally shoot with your bow. The 100 gram slick tricks I used with my compound would not pattern with the cross bow. I went with a Grizzly 125 and that made all the difference.
What didn't you like about the Barnetts?
