Bowhunter’s Gift Guide: Best Bows Under $800
If you’re looking for the perfect gift for the bowhunter in your life, then look no further. Here are seven bows under $800 that will hit the mark this holiday season.
For The Experienced Crossbow Hunter
CP400™ Crossbow - $699.99
This bow is guaranteed to bring home the venison. The CP400 is the flagship CenterPoint crossbow, combining the power, accuracy, and features that regularly command two- to three- times the price. With 400 foot-per-second speeds and 142 foot-pounds of energy — all at an affordable price — you’re sure to stop that buck in its tracks.
To sweeten the deal, for a limited time we’re offering this crossbow at $100 off and including a free soft case, Deadpoint™ broadheads, and free shipping. Interested in the CP400 with Silent Crank ($799.99)? That one is available as part of the same package deal, too. Add either crossbow to your cart, and we’ll take care of the rest.
Wrath™ 430 Crossbow - $649.99
Speed, power, and accuracy hit the target in this new-for-2021 crossbow. The Wrath is designed for close-quarters hunting and ultimate stealth. It’s our smallest crossbow at just 28.26” long, and 13” wide uncocked and 9” cocked and ready to fire. With the release behind the trigger, this bullpup style bow gains the benefits of a longer power stroke — more push for more speed!

Pulse™ 425 Crossbow - $499.99
The folding stock and folding stirrup make the Pulse 425 extremely packable.

When you’re ready to take aim, simply unfold the stock to unleash this bow’s proper shooting mechanics and power. Keep your position with our Whisper Silencing System, complete with limb dampeners, string stops, and two string silencers. Coupled with 425 foot-per-second speed and 160 foot-pounds of energy, you’ll shoot with buck-stopping power, speed, and accuracy.
The Pulse is just 15.75” wide un-cocked or 12” ready to fire. At under $500, the Pulse 425 comes with a complete accessory package: 4x32mm illuminated scope, three 20” 400-grain carbon arrows with field points, detachable quiver, and rope cocker.
