Thats a nice crossbow! I agree with you all sportsman need to stick together!! I use to shoot competition both 3D and indoor but now have the same problem with my shoulder so going to try a crossbow! I have a Barnet 380 and love it! I had to buy a new target though lol! Thank you for sharing brother and I wish you all the best of luck this season!
@@MarkJLarsonOutdoors we all have to stick together. To much arguing about what should be done. Lol I miss the 3D tournaments around here. Sure was a lot of fun. Greg and Sarah both have the Barnett 380 and they love them. I just bought a target and hope to get to shoot this weekend. Finally got more bolts in after destroying two because of the soft target. lol. Thank you brother and good luck to you too
I shoot a crossbow now because of shoulder problems, I have an Elete 35 compound and I miss shooting it but with the shoulder problems I really had no choice, thanks for the video.
@@ronniejenkins4633 sounds like we have the same issues. I do miss my hoyt. Love compound bow hunting but the crossbow is a lot better some of the stands also. Your welcome and thanks for watching
yea definitely don't need to be bashing each other as hunters I agree 100 percent. I just picked up the killer instinct vital-x 430x elite package I'm really impressed with it. I'm also about to get my hands on the centerpoint wrath 430x crossbow and do comparison video on them.
Fine looking crossbow! A couple of my brothers and one nephew have the Ravin crossbows. Those things are tack drivers. I could tell by the sound that your bow is super fast. I bought a used Elite Energy 32 compound bout midway through season last year. It was definitely easier on my shoulder than my previous bow. I figure one of these days I might have to get me a crossbow. Now I’m ready to see you lay some in the shade! Won’t be long now.
Thank you brother. I was looking at ravin as well. One of my friends bought one and he loves it but I was looking for something a little more lower priced just in case I wanted to go back to a crossbow. Fingers crossed everything goes well and we get season kicked off soon. Good luck to you brother. Keep me posted
I understand what you said about glasses because I can't shoot a compound because I can't see so I'm not going to be hunting bow season this year hope you get that big one this year have a bless day 👍👍
The glasses have fought me since day one. I have adjusted to them but still have a lot of issues with clarity. Hate your gonna miss bow season but I bet you look forward to muzzleloader season. Thanks for the support my friend and god bless
Do whichever during hunting season you choose. With a bad shoulder old big boy my step behind that tree and stand there to you give out holding back. When you draw back again and he catches you because of the pain he will be gone!
That's exactly my worst fear. When that shoulders hits that certain spot , Its painful and almost feels like its gonna lock up. If it keeps it up I might have it fixed next summer. Thanks for watching and commenting
I had to buy a new target for my Swat X1. The really penetrate! The Killer Instict Crossbows are the best bang for your buck. I also hate the way hunters get down on each other. We should never have to defend our hunting style to a fellow hunter. Get out there and teach a kid to shoot and hunt in whatever style they are interested in and quit all the arguing.
@@pawpawren7664 man they are powerful.. I agree they are the best bang for the buck. I agree on the that statement as well. Get a kid in the outdoors and shoot what you want.
@@pawpawren7664 I see what you mean. They are extremely powerful. I bought a new 425 fps bag to help with that issue. We should be able to hunt with what ever weapon we want as long as it’s a legal weapon. This bashing people and making fun of people is not the way the hunting community should be. You said it best take a kid hunting and teach them them how to truly enjoy the outdoors. Thanks for commenting and watching
So we’ve got 2 killer instinct 405,ones mine from when I started hunting and didn’t have a compound bow and my wife has on and my son has a Burnett 350 ,one my limbs cracked about 6 months after getting it 2 weeks before open ling season called Killer instinct and they had me new limbs in my mail box with in 5 days , bought it from bass pro and bass pro put the new limbs on for free ,scoop stopped lighting up on my wife’s , had a new scoop from killer instincts in 5 days , my wife wanted a crossbow that weighted less, so she bought her a ten point for like $800ish and it exploded on less than 20 time of being cocked , we returned it and she still using the killer instinct 2 yrs later, no problems out of my son Burnett
This is great news for warranty reasons behind the killer instinct. I'm hoping I have many years service out of my x bow. Thanks for sharing, This makes me feel good about my purchase.
Great video and well said. I bought a killer instinct ripper 415 several years ago and love it. I do like the design of the newer killer instinct models better and I’m sure they are a little quieter and less vibration by design. I don’t think you can beat them for the money!
Thank you I really appreciate it. In comparison to the barnetts That my family shoots. I think the killer instinct is about the same as far as sound but the killer instinct is faster and harder hitting for sure. Like you said for price this x bow is hard to beat.
@@pineyman13 thank you piney. If you are looking at crossbows Check out the killer instinct vital x. Also if you want to shoot it. You’re more than welcome to shoot mine.
Good looking setup..... I gave up archery hunting for years but got back into it after they made it so that you could hunt with a crossbow without needing a doctor's note. A bad back, shoulder, and eyes make a crossbow a lot more appealing. 😂 Good luck my friend.
@@terrydodson7637 thank you. Looks like a crossbow is where I will be for awhile. I’m actually excited about using it this season. Good luck to you too my friend. Keep me posted on your season.
Will the quiver go on the other as well for a lefty? As far as the crossbows vs compound, it shouldn't be one against another. We're ALL hunters and those of us have our reasons for using the one we use. Me myself, I use a crossbow for health and shoulder reasons. Like you, my shoulders rotater cuff won't let me use a compound. Regardless, if it's health related or just because you like what you like, get out there and enjoy yourself. I use the Barnett STR crossbow.
Yes it can be flipped from left or right. 100% there shouldn’t be a side. Only archery equipment. Sounds like me and you have the same issues. Those Barnett’s are wicked.
Like you said, shoot whatever makes you feel comfortable with. I still like shooting compound bows but have nothing against crossbows. But I noticed my left shoulder is starting to bother me. So maybe in the future I might have to go with a crossbow. Just went and bought a new Matthews Lift bow today. Still crying over the cost a little bit. Anyway thanks for the video and good luck.
100% shoot what you like and what makes you comfortable. Those new Matthews lifts are really nice. I seen where the seek one crew swapped over to Matthews. I know what you mean on pricey. New bows are crazy. You’re welcome on the video and thank you for watching.
I shoot a Bear Kronicle x love my crossbow it only shoots the heavy arrow I use at 360 fps but kills deer just the same. My next crossbow will be the killer instinct swat x1. After using a crossbow you will throw the compound away😅😂
I have not shot the bear crossbow but heard they was great bows. I looked at a swat and fatal x both. Just had a feeling about the x. Im really looking forward to this season and using the crossbow. Thanks for commenting and watching
Brother, I still shoot a 2013 Mission MXB320. My children and I have killed more deer and hogs with it than I can count. 360fps is plenty. BTW, there is not a single compound bow capable of those speeds!
lol. Honestly cuz, I was considering bowtech or elite but with the eye and hand issue. I didnt think it was worth fighting thru. Gonna give this fatal x a shot and see.
Bowtech used to be one my favorite brands, but their prices (along with all the other compound bows) have gotten to the point where I'm not buying them anymore. I can buy a really good crossbow for less than half the price, leaving me money for other stuff I need for hunting season.
Hey buddy how's it going. Seems like there's too many people with their noses into other people's business . Shoot what you want and leave other folks alone. I'm still shooting my old PSE but I'm getting close to 60 and having some shoulder issues. So a crossbow is definitely in my future.
I couldn't agree more. I understand somebody giving there opinion when being asked for it but now a days there is so much judgement on what someone does or what they use. Its pretty simple hunt how you want and what you want to hunt with. If it is legal and ethical its that persons god given right to do so. Good to hear from you my friend and good luck this season. Let me know what crossbow you end up with down the road.
Hopefully I have a better experience with mine that you did. I guess i get to find out at the end of this month. lol. Thanks for the comment and good luck this season.
Dont understand why there's a fight about this at all. But everybody wants to complain the Longbow guys. All the compound bows are gonna kill all the deer now. You got to compound hunters you crossbow hunters are gonna kill all the deer. I don't care what you use if it's legal in your state. Who cares? We are all trying to bow hunting here in a crossbow. Fit, you better use it. I know I am a truck driver and I've Compound hunted for years. But my job does not require me to be able to do the practice that is needed to use a compound bow so I. Switched over to a crossbow and I absolutely love it
This was very well stated my friend. If it fits ! Use it! Glad to hear with a busy schedule you can still make time to enjoy the outdoors. Thank also for the job you do. If it wasnt fro truck we couldnt keep this country going
Hunting is HUNTING! As long as it is legal and ethical. This old age crud isn't for wussies. People don't understand until they do😂 You do you Jamie. Nice rig, might look into it myself if u don't mind the copying.
Very well said my friend. I dont mind at all. Cant wait to see how this thing performs this season. Good luck my friend. Keep me posted on your season and if you make the jump to crossbow.
