I tend to really like simplicity and ruggedness, along with the ability to maintain my own bows. BUT.........I also like variety, and high-tech stuff, thus the question about compound crossbows.
I just wondered what your experiences have been: Having to bring to a pro-shop to restring, downtime, duration of string/cables, etc. I realize the pluses as far as balance and width. Some of the Tenpoints are awfully tempting as well as fairly expensive. (but you normally get what you pay for). I do love what I've seen of their built in rope cocking system. Very nice.
