I was at the dealer today looking at ten points and ravins. I asked the salesperson how they managed to cock their bows up in their treestands. He told me he cocks it on the ground and raises it like that to his platform , nocks a bolt and is ready to go. He said the ratchet made a bit of noise and the cocking rope was not easy to do for a lot of people.
I told him that it sounds like a very noisy proposition, and raising a cocked bow to your platform sounds like a dangerous proposition for the crossbow. I might just have to buy a compound bow and deal with that .
Thoughts ?
