Hello I was just wondering if anyone would be able to help me out. Has anyone tried Hand cocking their 330? if so how does it compare with say a Ibex or any other older model at that poundage. I ask because it is illegal to hunt in my country so pin point accuracy is not needed so much, I just enjoy going out into the garden and letting off some shots when I have a bit of free time, and I don't bother with the cocking aid when doing this.
Any input would be very much appreciated
Probably could but I haven't tried it. I have a Vixen and that is doable without the rope cocker, but the 330 has a much more acute string angle and more poundage, I imagine that wouldn't feel too nice. I wouldn't try it.
It's a great bow to shoot, why not just bring the rope cocker out to the garden with you?
Just reading your post and I said to myself, self and I knew it was me rite away cuz I recognized my own voice
I wonder how hard it actually is, so I grabbed the little Mrs. 330 and tried it.
It's actually easy to cock back but a little tight on the fingers. I would have to say it's just like her old Phoenix and with the rope cocking aid why would you bother lol.
Hope my 3 cents helps.
cheers

Cheers buddy that is a massive help thanks looks like im going to have to be investing in one!
I tried it one time with my Phoenix, no thanks, I'll use my rope, every time. Doesn't take that much longer, it's easier, and I will get the best accuracy from my X-cal
And as for the no hunting I your country, sucks to live there, no thanks...
I tried to cock the Vortex by hand, and actually got it up to the latch, but seen that i was a mile to one side. I agree, for accuracy sake, use the rope cocker!
