The Barnett Wildcat recurve crossbow package delivers proven performance for hunters who value simplicity and reliability over complicated cam systems. Weighing just 6.1 pounds and measuring 33 inches overall, this compact crossbow excels in tight quarters like treestands and ground blinds where maneuverability matters. With a 195-pound draw weight generating 280 feet per second and 66 foot-pounds of kinetic energy, it provides sufficient power for ethical shots on deer, hogs, and coyotes at typical hunting distances. For shooters exploring hunting and camping gear, the Wildcat arrives ready to hunt right out of the box.
Barnett engineered this recurve crossbow with several practical features that address real-world hunting concerns. The patented Roller-ball RopeHold technology secures the included rope cocking device in position, while the Soft Lok Floating Bristle Retainer System keeps arrows from sliding during movement. The metal injection molded trigger delivers a crisp break without creep, and the Anti-Dry-Fire system prevents accidental damage to the limbs. The smoke gray machined composite stock features soft-touch textured hand grips and cheek pieces for positive control in wet or cold conditions. The ambidextrous design accommodates both right and left-handed shooters without modification. A 12.5-inch power stroke keeps the overall profile compact while maintaining consistent arrow velocity.
This complete package eliminates the guesswork of assembling a crossbow setup. Barnett includes a precision 3-dot red/green illuminated scope with neoprene armor cover, a quick-detach side-mount quiver, two 20-inch Headhunter carbon arrows, an easy-use rope cocking device, and string lubricant wax. The simple recurve design means no wheels or cams to tune or replace—field maintenance is straightforward. Backed by a 5-year manufacturer warranty, this crossbow suits hunters seeking dependable performance without complexity. Browse our firearms selection and binoculars to round out your hunting setup.
With 280 FPS velocity and 66 foot-pounds of kinetic energy, the Wildcat is effective for hunting medium game like deer and hogs at distances up to 40-50 yards. Arrow drop becomes more significant beyond this range, so practice at your intended hunting distances.

Yes, the Barnett Wildcat features an ambidextrous design that accommodates both right and left-handed shooters without requiring any modifications or additional parts.
Recurve crossbows use simple curved limbs without wheels or cams, making them lighter, quieter, and easier to maintain in the field. Compound crossbows typically generate more speed but have more moving parts that can require tuning or replacement.
The Anti-Dry-Fire system prevents the crossbow from firing when no arrow is loaded. Dry firing a crossbow can cause severe damage to the limbs and rail, so this safety feature protects your investment from accidental damage.
