It is an accurate rangefinder. Compensates for angle, where necessary. "Best" is relative.

This range finder works great in BOW mode and is very accurate with its angles.

I shot a whitetail doe with mine at 58yds. She ran 40 yds before dying. The Recruit can do anything those high$$ bows can do

You can hunt deer with it. It depends on the weight though, I wouldn't go below 45lbs

I would recommend if you just want a bow to shoot at target. Not difficult to draw back and aim. I purchased for my 10yr old last year. It's really a beginners bow, not for hunting.

ya for target practice. I generally go with Carbon when hunting and have started phasing out all the aluminum arrows

The bow ships with three bolts that have field tips. These tips are used for general target practice. You can unscrew these and place broad heads on your bolts for hunting. However, I wouldn't recommend broad-heads for target practice as they will dull much faster. As for recommendations, it's really up to preference or what size/type of game you are hunting.

I used the blind this year for bow hunting. It is large enough to hunt from. I am 5-10 and can just stand in the center. But is wide enough to draw your bow and shoot. Fund it easy to carry in and set up. Does leak some in heavy rain

We have never used them for hunting; however, of all the different types and brands of arrow we've used these are by far the most accurate. Sorry :)

Check Excalibur.com for warranty info. I hunted last season with mine as a first time bow hunter. Put two in the freezer. Get you a target and zero the scope at 20 yards......shot my deer at 30 yards. Arrow went exactly where I aimed and blew right thru both lungs. Both deer ran less than 30 yrds. You will love the Excalibur. Don't settle for any other brand. That's my $.02 worth.

Yes it is, my ten year old daughter has one on her parker buckshot and it is very user friendly..its also great if your a treestand hunter no worries of your arrow coming of rest due to angle from the height of treestand.

Not an expert but you can hunt all day with it cocked. Best practice is to discharge the arrow at the end of the day. Bought one this year and filled both tags in PA. Top quality.

You want to get a "carbon" arrow with a "300" spine. It won't matter what brand they are. I bought mine at Sportsmans Warehouse, the cheapest ones they had. In late summer/fall, you can find some at Walmart. Just look for the "carbon" arrows that say "5570" on the side, (that translates into 55 to 70 pounds draw weight). I hunt Razorbacks with this bow, and if it can penetrate their hide, it can kill anything. Best of luck.I should also mention that you don't want those cheap bulk no-name arrows from China.

I agree with "daddyo". I will be hunting with Arrow Precision 6 Pack Carbon Arrows (20-Inch) tipped with G5 Outdoors T3 100 Grain 3 Pack Crossbow Broadhead. With the bolts and tips that came with it I am hitting groups the size of my fist at 25 yards and the last time I was firing it I actually "Robin Hooded" one of my bolts. Split the end of the bolt with another bolt. Very cool story but terribly unfortunate for my bolt count.

The bow is for basic learning designed for small kids. It teaches basic skills but has no power for hunting or even being used for distant target practice. I would go to any store that sells bows and see if you are strong enough to pull back and hold 25lbs. If you can I would buy a more powerful adjustable bow. If you can't this bow is for you.

It will work great for coon hunting. Use mine for coyote and bear hunting and love the accuracy!! Won't go wrong!

Racoons get pretty big! I'd go with the 120 lb to be sure you dont just wound it. I have the Avalanche and its a nice bow for the price.

If you are shooting from bended knee it might work. It is a little cramped for bow hunting. You would have to fool a bit with the windows or leave them open which might open your cover a bit. I would go for the two man size for bow hunting - IMHO.
