TenPoint TRX Ultra Crossbow

Blazing fast. Cocking and de-cocking is amazing. Light and compact. Only negative is the amount of attention to detail that must be paid to loading the bolt. Accuracy is majorly affected by a misloaded bolt. FYI, it’s very easy to misload the bolt, pay attention when doing so.

Very impressive crossbow, packed with tech, easy to cock and decock, extremely accurate out to 60 yards (this is the furthest shot I’ve taken so far), steadies free hand like a dream, better than any bow I’ve shot so far. I haven’t hunted with it yet, but will be starting next week.

I cannot get it to keep a tight group. It has about a 6 to 8 inch group at 50 yards.

Super crossbow, blazing fast and incredibly accurate. Two inch groups at 50 yards offhand!

I am impressed with the quality of the crossbow but I can’t get it to shoot a group. I am trying to sight it in at 40 yards and it shoots all over the place. I am even using a Lead Sheld to try to get it to group 3 bolts. I am using all Ten Point equipment with no success. I have an appointment with the shop that I purchased it from and they are also an authorized Ten Point repair shop. Hopefully they can figure out what is wrong. At this point I will not use it to hunt with as I can’t guarantee where the bolt is going to hit. I am so glad that I have a backup which is a Excalibur Hybrid X that is grouping so well that you don’t dare to shoot at the same bullseye. Hopefully after they are able to figure out what is wrong with it so I can use it to hunt with and write a positive review.

I have had nothing but problems with this bow since I bought it! First thing that happened was the scope failed, after getting it all sighted in the scope shut off and would not restart so I had to have that replaced. I brought the bow home to get it sighted in with the new scope and the bow started throwing bolts all over the target. I brought it back to the shop one they found a limb that was delaminating!!!!! I spent a ton of money for this bow to have this much trouble!!

The safety features...cocking, decocking, cocking and decocking with the brake, anti dry fire, speed and power.

This is a heavy crossbow. I assume it is that heavy to afford the speed and safety issues it has. If there was a way to make it a pound less heavy.

I went hunting at my place in the mountains. I sighted it in at 20, 40, and 60 yards AFTER I had sighted it in originally in the North Texas town outside Anna. I only saw squirrels and coyotes the first 2 days. My property backs up to the national forest. On a Sunday, I was resting to take a nap. My wife had gone to Taos, NM to get groceries. My two Boston Terrorists started barking like crazy. I looked out the back door and there he was lying down eating his lunch under a tree 60 yards away, a BUCK MULE DEER. I went down stairs to the garage. Cocked the TRX Ultra and inserted an arrow. Ranged the shot at 60 yards shooting from the stairs from the house outside to the garage and let the arrow fly. I only had a white wife beater shirt on, blue gym shorts and no shoes. The hit was solid, but because he wasn't standing, not a perfect shot. I recocked the bow and inserted another arrow. This time the distance was 65 yards. After a clothes change, went up the hill and found him

This review is based on the unboxing and setting up only as I am recovering from hip surgery and haven’t been able to send an arrow (bolt) down range. First impressions: The bow seemed a little heavy, reading the owner’s manual left the impression that the bow is a bit complicated, the quiver/cranking handle bracket seems to be somewhat awkward for carrying the bow with a shoulder strap, as well as concerns about losing the cranking handle while walking to a stand. More to come after firing a few bolts.

I researched this crossbow for several months before ‘pulling the trigger’ and purchasing. It is extremely fast and accurate. I had to buy the BigShot 650 TenPoint target as the bolts blasted through my current target at 30 yards! The Vision scope is a little more complicated than I thought, but the instructional videos helped me get it zeroed in. I should have went with the traditional scope that comes with the TRX Ultra. With deer season coming up in PA, the proof will be in the pudding.

Light fast and easy to use in tight places great shooting
