Having close to 40 years of deer hunting experience I am not new to the hunting experience, just crossbows. I have browsed this site for several weeks and want to thank all the knowledgeable and helpfull members  for the valuable information that they have shared. Thanks to all of you I was able to make an informed decision as to which crossbow to purchase: A Tornado. I am sure that I will be a frequent visitor to this site to continue to learn from your expertise.

Thanks again,

Papasmurf

Welcome to the CB Nation PAPASMURF ! It's a great place to gather and share information.  I too am new to crossbows this year with many years of vertical bows, I too chose the Tornado and I'm loving it, and I'm also from S.E. Michigan.

I'm doing okay although this body I am in isn't doing so hot. But the Lord is giving me a new one, so why worry about it?
