Wicked Ridge Unveils Improved Invader HP™ and Warrior HL™

Mogadore, OH.  Two years after launching Wicked Ridge Crossbows™, a two-bow lineup of high quality, precision performance crossbows that are simple, reliable, and affordable, TenPoint is upgrading the performance of both models without increasing their price.

Invader HP

The new Invader HP™, originally equipped with Alph-A quad limbs, is now fitted with TenPoint’s 180-pound field-proven HL Limbs™, and its D-75 string and cables with tunable yokes are now powered by TenPoint’s HP™ cams.  This upgraded bow assembly, mounted on a lightweight, cored semi-skeletal stock, now shoots 315 fps with 92.6 foot-pounds of kinetic energy.  The Invader HP is sold in two packages, retailing at $549 and $499. 

Like the Invader HP, the new Warrior HL™ is now equipped with TenPoint’s field-proven HL Limbs.  Its D-75 string and cables with tunable yokes are powered by precision CNC-machined aluminum wheels.  With its new bow assembly design and lightweight stock, the 175-pound Warrior shoots a solid 300 fps with 84 foot-pounds of kinetic energy.  The Warrior HL is also sold in two packages, retailing at $449 and $399.



Warrior HL



“The Invader and Warrior have been wildly successful because of their superior quality in their class” said TenPoint and Wicked Ridge CEO, Rick Bednar.  “By boosting their speed and power, we’ve further separated them from the competition and made them undeniably the premier performers at their price levels.”

Both models are available with a TenPoint™ 3x Multi-Line™ Scope or a Ridge-Dot™ 40mm Multi-Dot Scope and are double-dip fluid imaged in Mossy Oak’s® popular Break-Up Infinity® camo pattern.  Like all Wicked Ridge models, they are both equipped with TenPoint’s patented DFI™ (dry-fire-inhibitor) and highly regarded 3.5-pound patented PowerTouch™ trigger. 

Like all TenPoint crossbows, all Wicked Ridge crossbows are manufactured in the U.S.A.

New Wicked Ridge Raider Uses TenPoint CLS Technology

Mogadore, OH.  Two years after introducing a two-bow lineup of high-quality entry level crossbows, Wicked Ridge Crossbows™ has decided to step up its game with its NEW high-performance Raider CLS™.

The Raider features an economically executed variation of TenPoint’s powerful Compact Limb System™ (CLS) bow assembly. Unlike TenPoint’s one-piece CLS riser and foot stirrup, the Raider comes with a detachable, lightweight, coated aluminum foot stirrup.  Its 12-inch IsoTaper Limbs™ are fitted with MR™ cams and D-75 string and cables.  Together, these features create a smooth-handling, high-performance crossbow that shoots 330 fps with 101.6 foot-pounds of kinetic energy.

“We were blown away during the test phase of producing this bow,” said TenPoint and Wicked Ridge CEO, Rick Bednar.  “There just isn’t another crossbow on the market at this price point that shoots as quietly and smoothly with this kind of speed, power, and accuracy.”

With its NEW CLS bow assembly and an injection-molded composite semi-skeletal Verton® stock and ACRA-ANGLE™ barrel assembly, the Raider weighs in at 7-pounds.  In addition, the stock is fitted with a safety-engineered winged fore-grip designed to help prevent finger and thumb injuries.

The Raider CLS comes equipped with a TenPoint™ 3x Multi-Line™ Scope and, like all Wicked Ridge models, it features TenPoint’s patented DFI™ (dry-fire-inhibitor) and patented 3.5-pound PowerTouch™ trigger. 

Equipped with the patented ACU-52™, the Raider CLS is double-dip fluid imaged in Mossy Oak’s® popular Break-Up Infinity® camo pattern.

MSRP:  $799

Like all TenPoint crossbows, all Wicked Ridge crossbows are manufactured in the U.S.A.

TenPoint Introduces Bednar Perfect Puller

Mogadore, OH.  At the January 2012 ATA Trade Show, TenPoint Crossbow Technologies® expanded their innovative accessory lineup with the introduction of the NEW Bednar Perfect Puller™.  These universal multi-use pliers designed for pulling arrows were originally developed by the late Archery Hall of Fame member and TenPoint co-founder, Bill Bednar. 

Designed to pull arrows from high density targets, the pliers are packaged with three interchangeable grippers sized to fit different shaft diameters of both crossbow and compound arrows.  The black grippers are made from Santoprene® for superior grip strength and can be bonded to the pliers using adhesive patches included in the package.  The hunter orange handles, made of 50% glass reinforced thermoplastic urethane for durability, are notched to create a built-in nock tool.

“With today’s high-powered crossbows and vertical bows, pulling arrows – especially carbon arrows - out of high-density targets can be nearly impossible at times,” said TenPoint CEO Rick Bednar.  “These arrow-pullers eliminate this aggravation, keep your arrows straight, prevent your hand from slipping, and require less hand grip- strength to pull the arrow.”

TenPoint Takes Legendary Titan Model to New Level

Mogadore, OH.  TenPoint Crossbow Technologies®, an industry leader in crossbow innovation and technology, introduced its NEW Titan Xtreme™ model at the January 2012 ATA Trade Show.  Redesigned for improved performance and better handling, the Titan Xtreme is the next generation in TenPoint’s long line of top-selling Titan models.

The affordably priced Titan Xtreme is equipped with a NEW, fully-machined aluminum riser with more acutely angled limb pockets and 13-inch HL Limbs™.  These revisions produce a narrower and more powerful, 21.625-inch bow assembly with a 180-pound draw weight.  This new configuration, fitted with D-75 string and cables with tunable yokes powered by NEW XR™ wheels, mounts on a 7/8” longer barrel.  Its NEW string serving is also infused with wax and burnished to provide unmatched serving life.  Together, these features elevate the Titan’s speed to 333 fps with TenPoint’s NEW Pro Lite™ carbon arrow.

To reduce weight and improve handling, the Titan Xtreme is equipped with TenPoint’s NEW Fusion Lite™ stock, which weighs five ounces less than the original fusion stock.  The weight reduction is achieved by a new aesthetic cutout above the trigger guard, a cored-out fore-grip to stabilize the stock dimensions by evenly distributing the composite material during molding, and ventilation holes in the butt stock to help the camo pattern adhere better to the stock.

“The Titan has been our bread and butter bow for a long time,” said Rick Bednar, TenPoint’s CEO.  “These improvements make it lighter, quieter, faster, and more maneuverable – changes designed to extend its incredible run for many more years.”

The Titan Xtreme also comes standard with TenPoint’s 3x Pro-View 2™ Scope and, like all TenPoint crossbows, it features their patented DFI™ (dry-fire-inhibitor) and 3.5-pound PowerTouch™ trigger. 

Available with or without one of TenPoint’s two patented cocking units, the ACUdraw™ or ACUdraw 50™, the Titan Xtreme is double-dip fluid imaged in Mossy Oak’s® popular Break-Up Infinity® camo pattern.

MAP:  $799 with ACUdraw, $699 with ACUdraw 50, $599 with no cocking unit.

All TenPoint crossbows are USA Owned, Operated, and Manufactured in Mogadore, OH.

TenPoint’s Popular Turbo XLT Gets Even Better

Mogadore, OH.  TenPoint Crossbow Technologies®, an industry leader in crossbow technology and performance, introduced its NEW Turbo XLT II™ model at the January 2012 ATA Trade Show.  One of three new crossbows introduced by TenPoint, the Turbo XLT II employs new technology and engineering concepts for a faster and lighter version of the award winning Turbo XLT™.

The Turbo XLT II differs from its predecessor in several ways.  While it still features a radically compact bow assembly, spanning 13.5-inches from axle-to-axle when cocked, its 11-inch IsoTaper Limbs™ are now double laminated for improved strength and durability.  The bow assembly, fitted with D-75 string and yoked tunable cables powered by NEW MRX™ cams, is mounted on a 7/8” longer barrel that increases the power stroke to 12.875-inches.  This new combination produces a sleek and maneuverable 180-pound crossbow that shoots 345 fps with TenPoint’s NEW Pro Lite™ carbon arrow.

The Turbo XLT II is also equipped with TenPoint’s NEW Fusion Lite™ stock which weighs five ounces less than the original fusion stock.  The weight reduction is achieved by a new aesthetic cutout above the trigger guard, a cored-out fore-grip to stabilize the stock dimensions by evenly distributing the composite material during molding, and ventilation holes in the butt stock to help the camo pattern adhere better to the stock.

“By lengthening the barrel, improving the strength of the limbs, and redesigning the MR Cam, we’ve made the Turbo faster and more powerful,” said TenPoint CEO, Rick Bednar.  “The icing on the cake is that its new stock design makes the bow lighter as well.  As always, our upgrades and improvements come from listening to our customers.”

The Turbo XLT II comes standard with TenPoint’s 3x Pro-View 2™ Scope and, like all TenPoint crossbows, it features their patented DFI™ (dry-fire-inhibitor) and 3.5-pound PowerTouch™ trigger. 

Available with or without one of TenPoint’s two patented cocking units, the ACUdraw™ or ACUdraw 50™, the Turbo XLT II is decorated in Realtree APG®.

MAP:  $999 with ACUdraw, $899 with ACUdraw 50.

All TenPoint crossbows are USA Owned, Operated, and Manufactured in Mogadore, OH.

TenPoint’s Carbon Revolution Continues with Carbon Elite XLT™

Mogadore, OH.  Headlining the new additions to their crossbow lineup at the 2012 ATA Trade Show, TenPoint Crossbow Technologies® married the woven carbon fiber barrel technology from last year’s revolutionary Carbon Fusion CLS™ to their growing lineup of streamlined XLT™ (Xtreme Limb Technology) models to create the NEW Carbon Elite XLT™, now the fastest and lightest of the popular XLT group.

Like all XLT models, the Carbon Elite XLT’s bow assembly measures 13.5-inches from axle-to-axle when cocked and the riser comes with a detachable, lightweight, coated aluminum foot stirrup.  Its 11-inch IsoTaper Limbs™ are double laminated for improved strength and durability and are equipped with NEW MRX™ cams and D-75 string and cables.  Combined, these features create a 185-pound draw weight model that shoots 352 fps with TenPoint’s NEW Pro Lite™ carbon arrow.

TenPoint’s ultra-light wrapped carbon fiber barrel has answered the market’s demand for lighter and quieter crossbows.  The barrel is fitted with threaded aluminum rivet nuts which “float” it inside the stock to further reduce noise and vibration between the barrel and stock.  It also features an extruded aluminum trigger mount fitted securely inside the rear of the barrel cavity.  In addition, the barrel’s flight deck has an extremely low coefficient of friction that promotes improved string life.  With its lightweight carbon barrel and compact XLT bow assembly, the crossbow weighs in at 6-pounds 14-ounces.

“With two of our most popular recent innovations – the XLT bow assembly and the carbon barrel - the Carbon Elite will be a highly attractive option to those who understand and appreciate our technology,” said TenPoint CEO, Rick Bednar.  “The customer looking for top-level technology and performance will want a Carbon Elite.” 

The Carbon Elite XLT also features TenPoint’s patented DFI™ (dry-fire inhibitor), highly regarded 3.5-pound patented PowerTouch™ trigger and patented GripSafety™. 

Equipped with the ACUdraw™ or ACUdraw 50™, TenPoint’s patented cocking units, and the RangeMaster Pro™ variable speed and power scope, the Carbon Elite XLT is double-dip fluid imaged in Mossy Oak’s® popular Break-Up Infinity® camo pattern.

The model is sold only as a complete package that includes a soft case, carbon arrows, silencer kit, and quiver.

Carbon Elite XLT MAP:  $1699 with ACUdraw, $1599 with ACUdraw 50.

All TenPoint crossbows are USA Owned, Operated, and Manufactured in Mogadore, OH.
