@@TheFieldArcher just drug one 900 yards with one go pro a back pack w/ the muzzleloader. Feeewwwwyyyy. Half way I thought to my self, “ man field archers in shape”. Got the shot on film though! First one ever tonight after several dead batteries and terrible angles haha !
I bought the cp400 I like it and I also own the 370 , both had noisy butt stocks fixed noise on 370 I like both only thing is on cp400 had to string work on one time but no other problems. Nice shot I been watching all your videos 📹 hunts you do a great 👍job on videos and your hunts are great, keep them coming I just seen center point just came out with a 430 center point
Awesome job as always great shot surprised you didn't use the scorpyd. I want a new scorpyd the ds 380 with 115 lb limbs. Great video thanks for sharing, Mark
Using the NAP Doublecross heads, watched the last three deer drop! I don't shoot long distance, saddle hunting and off-hand close shots so forward weight is a non-issue for me.
I bought this crossbow because I wanted the Ravin R29x so bad but I cannot afford it. The cranking device just seems too dangerous to use. If the sleds strings aren't perfectly aligned (no twists, even on both sides) the sled can come out of the barrel groove. You have to watch it meticulously while slowly cranking it to make sure the sled didn't come out or your bow string didn't start to come off. Then when you've sweated yourself dry up to the point that you get the click and you've double checked that the anti dryfire is in place. You then have to put your fingers in the danger zone in order to remove the sled. I stressed this much at my Pro Shop with the Archery Tech doing all of the work. The pro shop tech, my wife, and myself agreed it's not worth the risk. Imagine doing all of this in the dark before a hunt. There is a reason why Ravin and Tenpoint point and anyone else with these high powered crossbows have switched their trigger box mechanism to slide down the rail to to crank under the safety of the anti dry fire system. I wanted to love this crossbow. To be honest this was going to be "the while I wait to save up for the Ravin R29x UPGRADE and then pass it down to my Wife" crossbow lol. My wife has carpal tunnel so a cranking crossbow was a must, but this one is not safe.
Use a headlamp in your blind or tree-stand and it's no problem at all. It's a learning experience for sure but once you get it down, it's a lot easier!
Nice shot. Any opinion on the new Blackhawk 360 from Wicked Ridge? Looking at possibly getting an xbow for next season. But I'm not trying to spend $1K+.
Definitely splurge and get an m1 turbo I have a 360 rampage and I wish I would have put the money on top of more money and got the tenpoint m1 turbo so that'll be my upgrade or a scorpyd I've been looking at some of the bows
I think that cp400 is blowing up on people is to light of a bolt. Even tho it's 400 grains. Also it could be because of sled design it's cutting into the serving the edges is kind of sharp. I dulled it with sand paper. But they need a new cocking sled I use the reg hook design. Until I got the silent crank much better cranking my cp400. Had no problems since my string blew while to was shooting?
Love saddle hunting, I hunt public so no treestand for others to see and move in on your spot, you can hunt out of almost any tree and they are comfortable!
You notice how alert and on edge they were coming to the bait... Only people that don't hunt over bait think "it must be easier". Now when you hunt public land and run 4 cameras (not just attached to the bow) and have all of that extra movement working the cameras with deer on edge coming into bait, that's a challenge.
