Wicked Ridge crossbows online shopping from Hunting Giant

TenPoint crossbows online shopping and bow guides? There’s lots of innovation in 2020 from the folks at Prime, including their new ROTO Cam, which features a rotating module designed for easy and precise draw length and adjustments in ½-inch increments, with nothing more than an Allen wrench. For maximum tuning capability, Prime’s new Easy Tune Shim Kit lets you shift cams right or left during the tuning process. Prime is known for making a rock-solid riser, and it’s been redesigned this year for even more strength. I like that Prime offers its flagship bow in four different lengths (31, 33, 35, and 39 inches axle-to-axle), and I shot a few different versions of the Black. The 5 (35-inches) was the fastest of the models, but I handled it easily, and it pointed and shot very well. Just for kicks, I shot the 9 (39 inches axle-to-axle) and while noticeably slower than its shorter cousins, it was probably the quietest and deadest-in-the-hand bow I shot all day.

Like a few other bows in the list, the Revolt line offers two options for axle-to-axle length. But the big features remain the same. Bowtech releases its Deadlock Cam System with this bow. Using this system, you can move the cams left or right on the axle to position the energy right behind the arrow. Then, you simply lock it in with a screwdriver for permanent accuracy. Options for weight are more limited than most of the other bows with a range of 50-70 pounds. Arrows fly at a max speed of 335 fps. A 26- to 31-inch draw length should fit a lot of adults, and a max weight of 4.4 pounds fits well into the lighter bows on the market this year.

I spent the 2019 season toting a Bowtech Realm SR6. It’s proven to be one of the most accurate bows I’ve used but…I did have to do a fair amount of tuning to get it dialed in. Not a big deal, as that’s part of the game. Well, it was part of the game before Bowtech unveiled its new-for-2020 lineup which features the Deadlock cam system that allows you to adjust the cams left and right within the axle. This means you can direct the string to align perfectly behind the arrow and this should greatly reduce time spent tuning a bow for perfect arrow flight, and because you can lock the cam into place, it should equate to repeatable, consistent performance. The Deadlock system is featured on several new Bowtech models and the Revolt including the flagship Revolt. It measures 30 inches in length, boasts IBO speeds of 335 fps and weighs 4.4 pounds. It’ll sell for about $1,200. The bow is available in 13 finishes including a sweet old-school woodland pattern.

How we started in the business? Hunting Giant was formed by a group of people who has a deep love for hunting and the outdoors. What started out as a weekly hobby slowly transformed into a mission: to be able to share the sense of fulfillment we feel in hunting. We don’t believe that the right hunting gear can turn a lousy hunter into a great one. However, the right hunting gear may be able to improve their odds for success. This is why we spent so many years looking for premium hunting gear and accessories. Now that we have it, it has been our goal to make it easily accessible to our valued customers.

At first glance, this year’s Ravin looks an awful lot like last year’s Ravin. And it should. It has the same HeliCoil cam system that turned the crossbow world on its ear a couple years back. It has the same fore-end grip system (which is really, really good) and the same stock system. What’s new? The revamped cocking system is silent. It’s still super easy to use, Ravin has just eliminated the tell-tale click-click-click that signaled the bow was being cocked. The R29X measures 29 inches in length, which means it’s still plenty handy, but a little longer than last year’s ultra-compact 26-inch R26. It has a 12.5-inch powerstroke which launches 400-grain arrows at an impressive 450 fps. It’s priced at $2,650. There’s also an R29 that’s $300 cheaper with a speed rating of 430 fps.
