Sleek and powerful with a little rebel attitude, that’s the new Winchester Archery Blaze. Easy to carry, and even easier to maneuver in the woods, this 18” axle-to-axle powerhouse is one of the most compact crossbows available today. The modern styling of the Blaze will draw plenty of attention on the range and in hunt camp but this bow has a lot more than looks. The Ultra Match trigger (patent pending) is the most advanced trigger system ever installed in any crossbow providing a trigger pull found normally on only the highest quality rifles. Caliper jaws release the string evenly and deliver incredible consistency and down-range accuracy. The ambidextrous safety and an anti dry-fire system that prevents the trigger from being pulled without an arrow in place makes it the safest crossbow trigger ever. Power is stored in the lightweight dual balanced split limbs and the (patent pending #12/277,860) AST-X two-track cam system delivers that power with lightning speed. Arrow speeds up to 325 fps produce over 100 foot pounds of kinetic energy and shoot flat enough to easily extend your hunting range. Limb dampeners, string speedsters and dual carbon rod Sudden Stop string dampeners and 3 quiet touch areas keep shot noise and vibration to a minimum.
