Does anyone have any recommendations for a short length of pull crossbow for my 7 year old daughter? I’m a novice with crossbows so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Most have fairly short length of pull compared to rifles. Take your tape measure to a sporting goods store and check. I remember hearing folks talk about the now discontinued Wicked Ridge Ranger for their small kids.

My 10 year old shot a deer with the Barnett recruit I got from Cabelas for under $225. My wife also took a doe with it last year. Very adjustable and with a low poundage draw weight they could both cock it back n their own.

Awesome. Congrats. I’d be the one cocking it exclusively so that wouldn’t be so much of an issue in my situation

This was our first year hunting with a crossbow as well, that Barnett one is a good starter one. If you have any questions reach out and I can help as much as I can.
