About Bolt Bench

Bolt Bench is an independent review site covering one question in depth: Best Crossbows for Beginners. We currently track 10 options and re-score them as prices, specs and availability change.

We are reader-funded. Some links on this site are affiliate links, which means we may earn a commission if you buy through them. That never changes a score or a position - the ranking is set before any link is added, and our testing methodology is published in full.
