TenPoint Crossbows Leads the Industry in Crossbow Technology

In each of the fourteen years TenPoint has been manufacturing crossbows, we have never failed to introduce innovations or to improve our products. And, in most cases, the advancements we have made originated from customer input. Since 1994, we have secured twelve patents with others pending or being filed.

Patented Trigger Technology

TenPoint has two primary trigger types designed to match-up with the performance characteristics of the models that use them-the RollerTouch and the PowerTouch triggers.

The Titan TL-7 is equipped with our innovative 5-pound RollerTouch™ trigger (patent pending). The RollerTouch features a double-roller system installed at the top of the trigger finger that allows the finger to roll off the string latch's sear surface rather than to slide off. This rolling action significantly reduces the friction between the two parts.

All other TenPoint and 6 Point crossbows are now equipped with one of our patented 3.5-pound machined triggers, including the Deluxe, PowerTouch-10, or PowerTouch-6 triggers. All PowerTouch™ triggers contain MIM (Metal Injection Molded) action components and continue to be the finest crossbow triggers made today.

Patented DFI™ (Dry-Fire-Inhibitor)

In1996 TenPoint introduced the DFI, which prevents dry-firing our crossbows when no arrow is loaded on the flight deck. The addition of this technology to our entire crossbow lineup has virtually eliminated the potentially severe damage and/or injury that can be caused by a dry-fire.

Patented ACUdraw™

Patented ACUdraw 50™

TenPoint’s convenient and user-friendly cocking aids have made our models the crossbows of choice for those who cannot or do not wish to manually load today’s heavier draw weights. Compare TenPoint’s ACUdraw or ACUdraw 50 to other cocking aides available today. Lightweight and fully-integrated into the butt stock, they have no dangling parts. They load the crossbow consistently every time; and they auto-retract after each use.

Patented GripSafety™

Installed in the fore-grip of the top four TenPoint models with aluminum barrels, the GripSafety prevents pulling the trigger without first depressing and holding this secondary safety in place with your fore-grip thumb. It helps prevent potentially severe injury by keeping thumbs and fingers in proper position on the fore-grip and below the barrel's flight deck. Installed on a standard basis for right-handed shooters, left-handed installation is available at no charge when placing a new bow order.

Riser Technology

Developed primarily through the Computer Aided Drafting and Design (CADD) process, all TenPoint and 6 Point risers are Finite Element Analysis (FEA) tested and designed for specific crossbow model applications. Made from 6061 T6 machined aluminum, each riser design is created to maximize the efficiency of each limb system’s
total package.

HP™ & MR™ Cam Stability Bushings

TenPoint’s New Cam Stability Bushings, while simple in concept, perform several important functions. First, they provide an ultra stable sleeve to support and stabilize the axles. Second, they help eliminate wheel lean when loading the crossbow. And, third, they help establish precise string tension on the barrel surface, to promote accurate arrow flight and to reduce serving wear.

Limb Technology

TenPoint now offers five limb configurations specifically designed for optimum performance on the models that use them: the NEW GT Recurve Limb for the GT Curve and GT Flex models, TL-4 Limbs™ for the Titan TL-7, HL Limbs™ for the Pro Fusion and Pro Slider, ST Limbs™ for the NEW Lazer HP and the 12-inch IsoTaper Limbs™ (patent pending), featured on our Phantom models and the NEW Shadow CLS. With a performance-matched limb for each crossbow design, combined with a performance-matched trigger, you can count on consistently superior accuracy, durability and dependability up and down the entire lineup.

Barrel Technology

The TenPoint Series’ ACRA-ANGLE™ and the 6 Point Series’ UL TriLoc™ barrels are the key to the unparalleled shooting accuracy of TenPoint crossbows. Both are designed to allow shooters to pull the bow string while their index fingers touch the side of the barrel; thereby guaranteeing accurate loading, which is essential to shooting accuracy. And, both of their arrow flight decks are machine finished for unsurpassed dimensional integrity, which insures accurate, repeatable arrow flight.
