Wow, the ten point crossbow really look like a powerful tool. On top of that, they are really expensive! I have tried archery using an archery bow before while on a vacation, are crossbows used in leisure shooting sport as well? Are there any other accessories that are needed to go together with a crossbow?

Hello.
The TenPoint crossbows have their price, that’s true.
But you get very high quality for that price and you won’t need another crossbow for a very long time (if ever).
Those crossbows I reviewed here have everything you need to get started.
There is additional equipment you can get, but you don’t really need those.
I would just get one of these crossbows and maybe after some time, you want to get some other optional equipment for them.
I hope that helped you.
If you have any more questions, please let me know!

Hello Moritz,
I never hunted but i must admit those are some awsome crossbow. I remember my dad had one when i was a child but couldn’t remember they costed that much. I guess these are high quality crossbows. I was wondering how far you can shoot an arrows with those machine ? How accurate would that be ? I would love to see one of those crossbows in action.
Thank you for you intresting post, really good content !

Hello Momo.
(It’s quite funny, because your name is actually my nickname, too.)
You are right. The TenPoint crossbows are all high quality crossbows that come in a set. So they include everything you need to go hunting right away. Even the scopes are already sighted in.
Those crossbows will do their job for many many years. If treated well, you won’t need another crossbow for the rest of your life.
There are cheaper crossbows, of course, but their quality is not the same and they often don’t have additional equipment either.
I reviewed a great beginner hunting crossbow, that might suit you more, if that’s your first crossbow.
Check out the 150 LBS Hunting Crossbow.
All the TenPoint crossbows have an effective range of around 60 yards. (Some might even say up to 70 yards.)
That doesn’t mean that everybody can shoot accurately that far.
Most kills with a crossbow are actually on a distance below 20 yards (when hunting deer for example).
Average shooters can try and shoot at their target on 30-40 yards, but everything above that will be very difficult to hit and can only be done by really good crossbow shooters.
Let me know when you have any more questions.

hello, I just wanted to point out some misinformation you stated regarding the Vapor vs. Venom speed. The Vapor is actually faster than the Venom if you take into consideration the arrow weight they tested the speeds at. The Vapor slings 420 grain bolts at a true 360 fps. The Venom does not as its speed of 370+ was with an arrow weighted at 370 grains. The Venom shoots a 425 grain arrow at 353, so as compared to the Vapor, the Venom would shoot a 420 grain arrow roughly around 354 fps while the Vapor shoots that same weight at 360 fps. The Vapor is in fact a slightly faster bow. The differences are that the Vapor is a bit faster, more narrow, is more quiet, shoots 22″ bolts for more stable long rage flight (venom shoots 20″) & comes with a bit more included with its package. The Venom is .3 lbs lighter and is 3 inches shorter in length (some may prefer its more compact length although it is 1 inch wider). Both are great crossbows and you can’t really go wrong with either. Happy hunting!

Hi
Great information for all those crossbows archers out there.
It is tough to find information like this on the internet that is focused on archery and crossbows.
I have learned a lot here about TenPoint crossbows. This helps me decide which one I should choose.
I think I will go for the Venom.
It looks amazing!
I look forward to your future posts.
Cheers
Reply Hi Chris,
I think you will have a great time with the Venom from TenPoint.
Like the others, it is of the highest quality and so strong.
No matter if you are using it at a range or for hunting. It will not disappoint you.
Enjoy!
