[QUOTE="Muddyboots, post: 2930125, member: 63925"] So shoulder failing fast, back is failing fast. Bowtech Stryker 380 175# xbow I bought in 2012 as backup is really tough to cock with pulley assist. Partly because stirrup too small for Sasquatch size boots. Researched and decided on this crossbow. Interestingly, took my Stryker in to Borkholders Archery for trade. Found out one cam was bad. Never noticed it until they showed and it was so obvious. Dang! I shot tested the Fury and holy cow Wow. [LIST=1] [*]Easy to cock, I could cock it sitting down with easy crank system. I did not decock it but process was easy enough. [*]Trigger as advertised, crisp, little travel but not much. Prob 3.5#. I will measure. [*]Safety was engaged automatically and nice visual of engagement. Hand guard is really good, nice softer material so it feels great over hand. [*]Took several shots in their 20yd range. Since never shot it, impressed how easy to hit bull every time. [*]Comes with 3 matched 400 gr arrow's and 3 arrow quiver. Note, the crossbow REQUIRES the use of their Alpha nocks or crossbow warranty is voided. The nocks are much deeper to provide better nock string security for a good reason due to string release velocity. [*]Cable/string heavy duty and prob good for 200-250 shots min. [*]Scope is clear and has velocity adjustment for tuning to scope gradients. [*]Illuminated as well. [*]Sight in was stupid easy. BTW, I switched out arrows to their XX75 option with 125Rage are 492gr on balance. So additional 92 gr of mass. [*]Velocity with the std 400gr was 400fps. It was 375fps with the 492gr XX75's! Only 25fps drop with much heavier arrow. Proves better arrow energy transfer efficiency to my thinking. [*]Sighted in at 20 yds with velocity set at 375fps. Dropped back to 30, 40, 50. All dead on.
