What's Going On with RAVIN?
Is the Ravin R500 a mythical beast like Bigfoot? Or is it a real crossbow, set to be shipped in August 2021? Ravin’s original date of June was pushed back to July then early August. Latest reports from the company suggest early/mid August, but Wyvern Creations’ website currently says available in LATE AUGUST! Does that give you enough time to familiarize yourself with this crossbow and hunt with it this fall? Or is this a bust? In this podcast I discuss this whole deal as well as some recent comments from Friends of Bunjie.
All of this podcast stems from a recent YouTube search I did for videos on this crossbow. I filtered it for the past 30 days, and there were ZERO videos uploaded about this new, groundbreaking crossbow. Imagine that—the 500 fps threshold is met, and NO VIDEOS about it—no discussion on that platform whatsoever! That should alarm anyone interested in crossbows.
Think about this: pictures like the one above are all we have about this new crossbow. No pictures of a human being shooting it or even holding it. Think about that.
