Buy a crossbow

Purchasing a crossbow means dealing with an exciting subject and sports equipment. Not only the technical values are relevant, but also the availability of spare parts, accessories and the ability to repair the crossbow (by the dealer or on your own) should play a role in the choice of crossbow. ARROW IN APPLE offers exactly all that.

Many times when buying a crossbow, the decision is made based on the "super properties" listed or perhaps a "Star Wars look". However, the sporting success of the crossbows we offer clearly speak another language. Various European and world champion titles in crossbow sport show what the crossbow models we offer are really able to achieve.

In many places, the performance for compound and recurve crossbows is wrongly defined solely by the maximum draw weight (pound / lbs). It would, however, be remiss to let yourself be blinded by these figures when deciding on your purchase. The draw weight must always be considered within all crossbow's components. The combination of the following characteristics among others influences a crossbow's performance:

• the bow type (compound or recurve)
• the CAM system – the size and shape are the deciding factors
• the draw length
• the crossbow arrow (material, weight etc.)
• the draw weight

The answer to the question "How does the crossbow transfer energy to the arrow?" cannot be answered solely by considering the pound value!

Similar to a shoe, these features are essentially trivial and based solely on personal preference: Workmanship, look and feel must match your own personal wishes. The size must fit. And, very important: The functionality must be immaculate. The same is true when purchasing a crossbow.

This does not automatically mean the fastest or most expensive crossbow, but rather the one that the crossbowman can handle the best. With all sport crossbows that we offer, the arrow speed is at a very high level. A crossbow that fits perfectly can always balance apparent insufficient arrow speed, as this improves handling and increases precision.
