Tenpoint TRX 515 Lead

TenPoint continues to find more speed in its high-performance crossbows, and the new TRX 515 shoots arrows as fast as its name indicates. A new twin riser diminishes weight and reduces flex by 70 percent or more. The increased stability of the riser produces tight arrow groups at any range.

A Zero-Trac Barrel reduces overall weight and means no rail for loading or launching an arrow. The arrow has a specialized nock to lock it into the trigger mechanism, with the front end of the projectile sitting on ball bearings and locked in place with a brush.

The bow is deceivingly lightweight, compact, fast and accurate. The premium bow has a TriggerTech trigger with zero creep and breaks like glass. The trigger also features a Dry-Fire-Preventor (DFP) and trigger block safety. The TRX 515 measures 29 inches long and 6 inches wide when cocked, has reverse-draw limbs and a 16-inch powerstroke. The new ACUslide Maxx cocks or de-cocks the bow with 7.2 pounds of pressure.

• ACUslide MAXX cocking and de-cocking system

Three Whitetail Traps to Set for Close Shots

Your whitetail hunting location may be as expansive as a national forest or as small as an uncle’s 40-acre woodlot. In either scenario, whitetails have a knack for slipping by just out of shooting range. Whether using a firearm or archery equipment, you do have options to lure whitetails closer. Consider setting a trap this season for your best opportunity at an ethical, in-your-face shot.
