[QUOTE="Huntin1, post: 199502, member: 5730"] Check out a few of the dedicated crossbow sites like Crossbow Nation and ArcheryTalk Crossbow section, you'll learn a lot. The centerpoint sniper is supposed to be a good crossbow. I had thought of getting one until I ran into a smoking deal on a Carbon Express and couldn't pass it up. Still may pick up a sniper to have a backup. If you like Parker, they have several different models that are supposed to be good. I used to have an Excaliber, they are very good bows, but are wide and are a pain to carry and use in a blind. I think the top of the line right now are the Ravins, with the Skorpyd running a close second, but man are they spendy. Everything I've read says stay away from Barnett due to limb issues, but I've never had one so I can't say for sure. In Bismarck they should have a few crossbows at Scheels and Dicks, though I'm not sure how knowledgeable they are about them. Whichever route you go, I would stay away from "off the rack" arrows. Spine indexed and weight matched are the way to go. Check out Tapp Nation.com and go with the Black Eagles or Spynal Tapps, not cheap but well worth the price. Or if you just can't bring yourself to spend that much I've got 6 brand new Carbon Express Mayhems I'll part with, still in the box.
