TenPoint Venom X ACUslide

The ACUslide is a silent, integrated cocking and de-cocking system that allows you to draw the bow with minimal physical effort. It uses a crank mechanism that locks at any point, making it safe to stop mid-draw if needed and allowing you to de-cock the crossbow without firing an arrow.

Yes, the 400 fps rating is achieved with standard factory-weighted arrows. While environmental factors like extreme cold or heavy arrow setups can slightly alter speed, the Venom X is engineered to maintain high kinetic energy and flat trajectories at typical hunting distances.

The Pro-View optic is specifically calibrated for the speed and trajectory of this crossbow. It features multiple reticle points that correspond to specific yardages, which helps eliminate guesswork when aiming at targets at varying distances.

Because of the ACUslide system, this model is very accessible for beginners who may lack the upper body strength required for traditional cocking ropes. However, its high speed and power mean it is best suited for those who are prepared to handle a high-performance, precision hunting tool.

Like all high-performance crossbows, you should regularly apply rail lubricant to the string and cables to reduce friction and extend their lifespan. You should also inspect the string for signs of wear before every outing to ensure safe and consistent performance.
