Page 14 - TenPoint Crossbows Turbo S1 Reviews

Accurate narrow really like the ACUslide but the holes on my stock don’t line up so can’t release from string trigger doesn’t seem any better than one on my Turbo GT I’m a lefty should be able to just change safety and not have to buy a left hand one.

Been hunting for a month Cables already fraying a little disappointed

The bow works well but the scope lights are not very good. The red doesn't work well at all. If it wasn't for that I would have given it a perfect score.

I love this crossbow. I chose it specifically for the AcuSlide decocking system and it works perfectly. The reason I took off 1 star is for an issue I had with the lighted scope reticle. The one from the factory would flicker when rotating the dial for brightness. I sent it back and Tenpoint replaced it quickly. The replacement scope showed the exact same problem. It turns out that while the battery cap appeared to be fully tightened from the factory, it was not. By tightening the cap further, the flickering went away. This is an initial quality problem that the factory can resolve before it reaches the customer. One suggestion I would make is to enhance the DFI system to include it in the trigger safety system. Instead of allowing the shooter to fire the bow into the DFI and potentially damaging the string, a better implementation may be to prevent the bow from releasing the trigger and thus preventing the string from releasing in the DFI. This would eliminate the potential for string damage.

I choose this crossbow due to the cocking/decocking mechanism and price point. I’m extremely satisfied with it. It is very easy to use and extremely accurate. Within 1 week of owning it I managed to harvest my personal best buck! Thanks ten point!

Love the bow and the safety features, but lots $$

Great bow, easy to set up and shoot. A little on the heavier side for a crossbow but i’m getting use to it. The only real downfall I’ve had to it so far is when after climbing my tree stand and pulling my bow, up my cocking device fell out of the crossbow to the ground. Since then I just carry it in my pocket. Glad to have the crossbow and thanks for providing it for my hunting adventures.

Love the sleek profile and the ACUSlide system is awesome! The S1 is a great value at speed for price. Wish the EVO-X scope would be an option out of box.

The bow is a tack driver! But the slide will not release all the way to the string. The quiver bracket is junk. The crank make noise while cocking in the stock.

The Turbo S1 is on the low end of the Ten Point product line. I have no idea , except for speed, why. This crossbow is amazing. Accurate, fairly lite, narrow footprint, it just feels good. Amazing.

My first shot at a game animal buried my Rage tipped arrow out of sight into the chest of a Bull Elk who stood facing me at 20 yards. Later found it buried all the way back to his hips.
The ease and safety of cocking compared with my older recurve style makes shooting fun again for this 73 year old who doesn’t want to give up.
I can’t recommend the Turbo S1 enough and can’t understand why you would want anything more.

I’m a 63 yr old girl and this is my first bow It’s simply amazing. I shot my first doe 4 days ago it’s fast and accurate. Even though I’ve been gun hunting for 25 years id rather us my new crossbow

Bow appears to be good, but the front scope cover snapped off after approximately 10 openings and closing.

I’m very happy with my Turbo S1. Setup and site-in was very easy. Accuracy has been spot on and I just took my first deer off the season with it. The cocking/decocking system is awesome as well as silent.

The only thing I changed was to swap out the mini stirrup that came with the turbo with the regular size foot stirrup. With the mini, my broadheads stuck out past the stirrup which was annoying in certain situations.

Don’t be afraid to buy this bow as far as I can tell and I haven’t shot over 50 yards this boat is dead on the only issue I have just making sure that it locks in when it’s caulked completely sometimes it won’t seat and I am sure that user error I love it

Very nice compact Crossbow. I really like the Scope and chose the Ten Point over other major brands because their reticles were too thin and hard to see. The illuminated dots are great in low light conditions. It is smooth shooting and fast and accurate. It is good looking with and very well made.

Negatives:
Even though a “low” high-end Crossbow it should come with the extended crank handle. The shorter crank makes it more difficult to cock and decock. Without the leverage of a long handle you need to put a huge amount of pressure on the trigger box/to release it and decock. I thought something was wrong and almost sent it back for repairs until I managed to get it to release.

The pressure tab that holds the quiver in the bracket is a very poor design. It’s a hassle and awkward to constantly have to adjust the tension every time you want to reattach the quiver. This can be in the dark before and after a hunt. If not snug the quiver can fall off the bow in transport.

The angled quiver is also a nuisance. When shouldered for carry with a sling the arrows get caught up in brush and branches, and often times the lighted nocks get triggered. The Quiver should be adjustable so it can be set more parallel to the Crossbow.

When the crank is in storage in the stock, the retractable pin that is inserted into the cock decock mechanism is in a position that gets contact when handling shouldering the Crossbow, and makes a clicking noise which can and will alert deer.

Excellent product the accuslide is super easy to use.The bow is fast and quiet mine came with the evo x scope and it is definitely an upgrade.This is my first crossbow and I'm very glad this was it

Great crossbow easy to cock in stand and decock also . Super fast and great scope easy to get on target .

This crossbow is fast and accurate. It is dead on up to 40 yards and is within 1” at 50 yards. Love the string cocking and decocking system.

This is perfect bow for just about everybody. The cocking system is easy and your loaded fast. The scope is very user friendly and the illumination is unbelievably clear especially toward evening. Very easy to sight in. I was sighted in just after 3 shots and was shooting 60 yds accurately by my 7th shot. Very fast and quiet. I also enjoy the compactness of this bow. Very easy to maneuver in the tree and light to carry in the field. Unloading it is so easy as well.
All around an excellent choice at a price point that won’t break the bank. Sure you give up a little speed to go to the next level, shooting 500 fps but you pay for that extra 110 ft per second and honestly I don’t see the value as this bow is hard to beat based on performance and quality.
The real test is yet to happen but if I miss, it wasn’t because of the bow!

This is my first time ever to use and hunt with my Turbo S1… The speed an accuracy is so unreal. I hunted opening Bow season in Texas… and took my first 9 point Buck at 35 yards… it’s so fast and quiet… I’m giving up rifle hunting this Season.
