My son just had some surgery which will temporarily keep him from using his compound bow, but he truly loves archery season and it would kill him to miss any of it. He has his application in for a temporary crossbow permit, and while we're waiting to see if it comes thru, we're thinking about what crossbow to be on the lookout for, new or used.
We are leaning towards the Exomax, but then there's the problem of the PA Game Laws allowing a maximum 200 lb. draw weight. We obviously want all the performance we can get, but also aren't in the habit of disregarding the law.
Can crossbow draw weights be adjusted within a limited range like compound bows? (We're new to crossbows and don't know a whole lot about them...but we're quick learners, ha, ha.)
I'm thinking if we could adjust it back to 200 lbs., we'd still have the ability to crank it back up should the law ever change to permit a higher draw weight. Thinking about it though, a 25 lb. adjustment range may be asking too much. Compound bows usually only have a 10 lb. adjustment range, but then we are only talking 70 lb. draw weight too.
