First post on the X-bow forum...and no I'm not talking about my wife.

I do some hunting with a good friend of mine that invented the SR-77 hunting rest for disabled hunters. When the x-bow is on the hunting rest it's not easy to take off just to pull the string back. We made a hand crank for it and mounted it through the stock but is really a pain in the butt to use.

I saw the stryker has a built in crank. This is really more x-bow than he needs, was wondering if there is any other x-bows on the market that have this feature, or any add-ons that are similar to this?

Thanks,
Dan

Tenpoint has what they call the AcuDraw. It's mounted on the side of your stock. From what I've read it seems that the Accudraw can be added to just about any crossbow. I do not use it so that's about all I can add. I think some people on here do so maybe they will chime in.

the 1st pic is Acudraw 50 and the 2nd is a Acudraw with crank.I use the Acudraw on my Profusion.its no speed crank but it makes it very easy to draw string back and is alittle noisey......

Thanks for the help. I did a search for the acudraw and found several other accessories for doing this as well. It seems now that x-bows are getting quite a bit higher draw weights that these are becoming more popular.

Take a look at Darton Great Lakes xbows...they have a crank set up under accessories...64
ps..these bows are short with a long power stroke.
