Can you hunt rabbit with this bow

I don't know because i could never string the damn thing. Crossbows are powerful enough, but you should check the laws in your state before using a crossbow for hunting.

Yes it is powerful enough for that. It takes a lot of muscle power to get the cord on and to load .

Yes, but for larger game, like deer, a more powerful crossbow is advisable. This bow has the advantage of being easier to cock than 150+and it is relatively light so it easier to track fast moving game like rabbits. Even though it is value priced, it is a serious piece of business. If his is your first crossbow, go to an archery range and have them string it for you and show you how to correctly cock it. They can also help you sight it in. Even though I have had multiple crossbows over the years, I never string them myself. With a bench rest vise they can do it in about one minute. There probably won't even be a charge and a hour of range time practice is advisable. Yes, but for larger game, like deer, a more powerful crossbow is advisable.

yes just depends which pellet you use and where you hitting the rabbit but i suggest getting the .22 to make sure to kill the rabbit fast and quick death

I would not recommend it. Bear bow hunting is dangerous with any crossbow. It you just make the bear angry, it can get to faster than you can re-cock. Having a hunting partner with a large caliber rifle is always advisable even if you have a $2,000 crossbow.

Yes, I also Have a Crossbow "Bowtech Stryker ". The Gorilla Shooting Stick will work Awesome as it is one Sturdy Tool in your stalking and ground game for Whitetails. I will not hunt without it.

I don't hunt but I use mine for target archery. If you range on the animal first then set your site, you should be good.

Yes, for critters that is. Check out some You Tube videos, one in particular shows hunting rattle snakes and rabbits.

Well, deer do not have hands or pose-able thumbs, so probably not. LOL But if you want to hunt deer with this bow, that certainly can be done and will be quite effective.

This bow is not suitable for hunting although with great skill and even more luck it might kill a squirrel. The draw weight is minimal (I purchased it for my 14 year old niece to satisfy her "Hunger Games" obsession) and would only recommend it for close quarter target practice.

Yes. it can. i shot two rabbits and dropped them cleanly with a single shot each to the head. great rifle.

Yes, now that I think about it you can buy a hand crank to cock your bow. Once cocked there is no holding the string. Crossbow would be perfect as long as you got the hand crank. Without that the crank it does take some effort to cocktail the bow. Hope this had helped you

I'm not sure. I bought for my husband for hunting and he said it would not work for him but said it was a good practice bow.

Don't let that stop you from purchasing it. I bow hunt out of mine and it works great.

Age 16, girl, beginner - perfect bow! Get some extra arrows as they are easily lost and are not very stout to start with. Best wishes! Bruce. (don't discard the sight that is embedded in the cardboard that is entangled within the bow strings.) Throw nothing away until you have used the sight! :-) BTW this is a serious bow, you could kill with this (with broadheads - a deer)

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.

No, you have to adjust the Draw Weight, according to your strength so you can easily pull it back. Go to You Tube and search for how to shoot a Compoun Bow (do not dry fire a bow) very dangerous if you do that. Good Hunting.

No. These arrows are only rated for bows up to 35lbs. In most states, 35lbs is the absolute minimum legal draw weight for any bow intended for hunting. These arrows also have a basic target point pre-installed. They are great for target practice, but there are so many quality customizable hunting arrows out there that it really isn't worth trying to retrofit these for hunting.

It is designed for small children. I doubt that they could hunt more than neighborhood vermin to be very honest. It's a great bow for your kids to learn the right way and to start living the dream.
