My wife could never accuse me of not getting the most out of my crossbow collection.  

I'm having so much fun with these toys I wanted to make a vid of a Challenge: "What's the best bow for me?"  I shot these bows trying to find out which bow I had the most fun shooting while under pressure.  Overall winner was a Complete surprise.  

Would it be 'value bow' OR 'you get what you pay for?'

Like I said what I thought would happen didn't ... I learned some valuable lessons but most of all I had a ton of fun. Enjoy

Thanks deerboy for the "Real Guy Live Action" video.   Great job showing off different kinds of xbows being used with" out of the box" components to be viewed by newcomers to the sport.     By the way I do have a new xbow and, with out of the box components I'd like to do a video with you shooting for pink slips. LOL     You have too many toys and, it wouldn't hurt for you to loose at least one.  You know the one I would want.   I'm glad your happy with your favorite xbow. That's all you can ever wish for with your weapon.  I do think if you like it that much you should try Dorge's new rest so, you won't be ripping off your vanes all the time. And for God's sake get a real target.  I have that one also. B A D  bad.
Good Job

glad u enjoyed it CT. Did you see the shoutout I gave you? Haha you're famous!   I have to give all the thanks to my film crew and make-up artist.  I'm actually a 70 year old asian dude  

I've got more vids planned but life with wife and kids keeps me busy.     

BTW you're right about the xbow block target... YIKES! I'm a strong dude but getting those arrows out is work.

Thanks for the shout out too.  My daughter saw it and thought it was pretty cool.  You probably don't know your getting better at the video with each try. I'll say you are. With your passion for xbows, a couple years down the road you might have guys sending you xbows for free to do "Live Action" performances of them.    I hope you save some of that disposable income to do some slow motion shots in the future.  I think that would be cool and, separate you from anyone else making them.

Deerboy,

Thanks for going to the trouble, even if you came to the wrong conclusion.   I enjoyed the video thoroughly.

haha! I had a ton of fun...  glad you enjoyed it.  Send me an xbow and I'll have fun with it!   I'm thinking up my next challenge already it'll be fun no doubt.

Nice video deer boy.  Want an idea for your next one?  Get all 4 bows shooting off your rest as good as you can get them. Then get rid of the table and shoot off your chair without any bow support, similar to shooting out of a treestand unaided.  
That way you will see which bow is the real killing machine. It will show shich bow holds well and has the best trigger.
