Vixen vs Phoenix?

Post by Swede »

I am thinking of buying either the Vixen or Phoenix crossbow. Is there any big difference between cocking the Vixen compared to Phoenix?
Wich crossbow should I buy? I will not hunt with it. I will only target and 3-D shoot.

Diito, the Vixen is the best bow in the line up for Target and 3D. 8)

Thanks for all the advices. I was considering trajectory benifits with the Phoenix. I shoot WCSA field sporting shooting and we shoot at distances up to 55m. Should I still go for the Vixen?
