About the Bows
Crossbows come in all shapes and sizes. Each has its own set of benefits and drawbacks, but Barnett stands behind all of its crossbows as lethal hunting weapons and effective tools for sport that get the job done. Selecting your crossbow begins with selecting which type of design you prefer. This is a personal decision only you can make. Visit your local Barnett dealer to get a hands-on look at your options to find the right fit for you.
COMPOUND CROSSBOWS
CONTINUING THE TRADITION
Compound crossbows incorporate a set of cams or wheels into the limb assembly. The end result may look more complicated or intimidating than their recurve cousins, but compound crossbows actually offer more power and speed. The design also reduces vibration, which in turn reduces noise. The addition of two cables in the cams means that maintenance on a compound bow is slightly more time-consuming than a recurve bow, which only has a singular string.
STEP-THROUGH RISER CROSSBOWS

We are singularly focused on giving hunters lethal hits. That starts with being able to handle your weapon confidently and comfortably. By integrating the foot stirrup directly in to the riser, step-through riser crossbows are easier to control and balance during use.
