A different kind of crossbow!

Just what I need. Something that needs extra clearance horizontally and vertically!

That's interesting, thanks for posting it.

Interesting design, but what it all comes down to is that the more parts you have, the more chance of something going wrong.
Interesting to see though.

It is interesting. It would be fun to make it, but I would'nt buy a production one.

I could see it in my mind's eye as being used for throwing a really large heavy arrow or spear... sort of like the mortar round of crossbows... perfect for warfare say a thousand years ago..
or skewering several deer or hogs at a time...
I like my phoenix..
but that is interesting ... it is a trip to see all the diff't ways to get the energy of a limb and string to an arrow.
the backwards facing bows make me think that there are new things to come up with... all the time...
better is not the question.. but new .. it is always out there.

You could tell the anti-crossbow nuts you killed it with a vert bow.

diff fer sure but the weight and width is too much for me.
