Barnett CrossbowsReviews of barnettcrossbows.com

I am not one to be negative, but against what others have told me about Barnett Crossbows. I bought a hypertac 430 last year. I did harvest a few deer last year with it. That being said I took it to our local bow shop and found out the string is frayed due too cams and my limb was cracked. Said he's ran into this problem and that Barnett is difficult to get ahold of. I also bought a Raptor last weekend, and the string exploded. Now I'm down two crossbows. I also should have read reviews.

The 425 ghost crossbow speed is excellent, but for an elderly person shooting, you cannot see the bolt fly. I have spent over $100 trying to put lighted knocks on this and I have broken a string. Why can the less price bow have lighted knocks but this one cannot. I have lost deer due to not seeing bolt hitting the deer.

CHRISTMAS PRESENT GONE BAD !! Assembly was very smooth , Whitetail Hunter STR looks like a very solid compact bow.The bow was unable to fire its first bolt due to a faulty E clip on the trigger system, concerns on quality control. Barnetts customer service was very difficult to contact, I have received the bow back from the factory .I hope quality control was doing its job this time .

Bought a whitetail hunter this year. Love the bow, called about recommended arrows, and broadheads,for hunting, as they don't work as well as field points. 4+ hours on hold, then they hung up on me, still no answer. Forums have better info, and help. Hope I never have to call them again, could be hours before they hang up on you, like they did me. POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE.
