About this product

Product Information

The Parker Challenger Crossbow system is ideal for youth and small frame shooters. It's designed for superior hunting, better archery precision, and top performance. Take the crossbow out of the box and to the archery range in less than 15 minutes. Simply install the cable guide, attach the prod to the stock, and attach the optional quiver. Add your scope or other accessories to your crossbow and, before you know it, your arrow will fly.Parker Challenger crossbows feature an adjustable draw weight of between 125 and 150 lbs. Parker crossbows are designed for quick adjustments at home. You do not need to take the bow to be professionally adjusted, as instructions on how to remove or add the shims are included with the crossbow. This will change the weight as required by the needs of the shooter.Cocking the crossbow is a smooth and easy process, even at the highest draw weights. A rope-cocking device can be used to assist smaller hunters with pulling back the string. The draw length is adjustable from 23 to 27 inches. You can get accessories and replacement parts to improve your experience.A 10.625 power stroke gives these bows their small size. However, the Parker Challenger Crossbow design gives these crossbows velocity. The cam and limb design combined with draw length ensure power in all Parker bows. The compound bow's 31.75-inch stock length releases arrows at speeds of between 275 fps and 300 fps. Despite its small size, the Parker consistently performs well for most hunting or archery target needs.The G2 bull-pup trigger pulls smoothly to eliminate jerk and to ensure you hit your targets every time. The automatic safety and anti-fire mechanism provide a level of safety while in the field or at the archery range. By engaging automatically, these crossbow features are key for young shooters. An ambidextrous safety allows for both left-handed and right-handed shooting. If you're left-handed, consider other accessories to make hunting or archery more comfortable.The vented forearm gives the Challenger Crossbows an aesthetic appeal and handling advantage. A machined aluminum riser and ballistic polymer barrel make this a durable addition to any archery or hunting collection. A total weight of just over 6 pounds means that this crossbow travels well. You don't have to worry when the territory gets rough because an optimized balance point increases accuracy and helps prevent shooter fatigue while hunting. You can add accessories without making the bow too heavy to use.The Parker overall bow length of 31.75 inches and width of only 21.87 inches results in easy crossbow manipulation. The Parker Challenger Crossbow fits easily in most crossbow cases. You can even use an attached scope. The crossbow may be outfitted with several different types of multi-reticle scope options and accessories. Red Hot or Parker arrows with your choice of broadheads are recommended by Parker. A Red Hot arrow will add ease of use and dependability, but a variety of arrows may be used as long as they feature the capture nocks for crossbows. It is recommended to use a bolt arrow of at least 400-grain weight for Parker bows.Parker crossbows are made in the USA.

  • Perfect fit for my wife

    Lee with THS was great, took the time to walk me through all the details on the Challenger, and recommended it, man was he right! It arrived quick and was just as discribed. Went together easy and with one right click on the scope was hitting bulls eyes one after the other. Made in the USA and you can tell, solid, light weight, smooth action, just a very nice crossbow. For the money, you can't find a better one out there, call Lee at THS and get your wife or daughter a great crossbow and a great price!

  • Lightweight and great features

    I really like this crossbow because, I have several disabilities two shoulders that are not working and I have had 5 back surgeries in the past two years. I owned a Horton 175 I really liked but due to weight I was unable to hold it up without some kind of support. Had difficultly loading it due to no strength in my arms, I did like the way it shot, I took 4 deer with it. The weight of the Horton was the main reason I wanted something else. The Parker Challenger has performed better than I expected. I am due another surgery on my back now and its deer season which isn't cool but that is the way things are. I have practiced with the Parker its very accurate and lightweight. I like the scope somewhat but I would prefer one that's really clear but I can hit very well with it so the scope is something I will do later. All in all the Parker is the best bang for the buck, my sister in law has one she is disable also she has already taken her deer, ill get mine soon I hope.

  • Perfect way to teach kids to shoot.

    I bought this to teach my boys to shoot. There is no kick so they are learning good trigger pull. My 6 year put three out four bolts touching each other at 22 yards and the 4th was only one arrow width apart. He shot his first turkey at 36 yards with it a few weeks ago. I got him a tripod to help him hold it steady and I am there to remind him to keep his fingers away from the string. I am really happy if you get it Plano makes a compact version of the spire case that fits it well since it is a smaller cross bow.

  • Best bow for women.

    This bow is light and small, which makes it great for smaller framed hunters. I bought this as as spare. I have killed several deer with mine. It is a little noisy, but very accurate.

  • Lightweight with great features.

    Nice and light! I was able to watch a doe for ten minutes without flinching because this bow is light enough. Highly recommend.

  • Bought it for my 7 year old grandson

    Nice fit for my grandson. Still a little heavy for him to free hand it. Very little adjustment need on scope. Almost dead center. Recommend it.

  • Crossbow

    AS ordered shoots great.I'am able to cock it with the rope is why I ordered it as I have lost my arm strength at 82. The only error is it doesn't show a cocking rope so I ordered one so now have two!

  • Arrows

    My husband has a crossbow we shot in last weekend, but this one was a little different. No big deal just read directions on how to function. First fire resulted in a dry fire...after investigation the arrow nocks were not all the same. When it says to make sure different colored feather is pointed down may not always be true...Please pay attention to the nock!!! Luckily it did not result in an injury but very disappointed this shipment!
