With the increase in popularity of the hunting games, expeditions, and competitions more and more people are taking an interest in crossbows. Women and teenagers are coming around on the idea of shooting arrows as a sport with their families.
Finding the right crossbow for yourself is not an easy job unless you have a big budget and get a premium crossbow. But the price is not directly proportional to quality. The crossbow industry has put out many crossbows in the market with various features suited to different people because when buying a crossbow, one has to consider the physical characteristics of the archer so that shooting can be satisfying and fun and not uncomfortable and hectic.
Keeping the above in mind, we have compiled a list of the best crossbows for women that are for sale and you can get your hands on in 2022. We kept a few critical factors in mind while putting the list together so that it is customized to the requirements of the ladies.
Let’s get on with the list of the top crossbows for women!
The Sniper 370 has been described by many as a beautiful weapon that is easy to handle and maneuver out in the field. This is the first crossbow on our list for a few reasons, including that it is a great catch in this price range for anyone (specifically girls) for their first or next crossbow.
It comes with a self-cocking feature that makes them really easy to handle the 185 lbs draw weight. This crossbow’s design is quite modern, durable, lightweight, and composite. Compared to its lightweight design, the Sniper 370, as the name suggests, does not fall back on speed. Shooting at a respectable 370 FPS, the arrow will penetrate a buck of any size or go through any target that you are shooting at.
Assembling this crossbow right out of the package might present itself to be a problem, as we have come across numerous complaints about their non-descriptive and poor assembling instructions. You can easily overcome this by watching a tutorial online.
Safety-wise, CenterPoint has got you covered. This crossbow comes with ADF (Anti Dry-Fire) system and finger safety for your hands.
All this is offered in the package that is priced at less than $250. No wonder this is an award-winning crossbow and also number one on our list!
Barnett is always one of the leading names on any list of the top crossbows, and they are leading the industry in these times as well. Barnett is undoubtedly considered one of the best brands of crossbows in the world.
The Whitetail Hunter II crossbow is one of our top picks for women in the hunting world. When you are getting the quality of a Barnett crossbow in less than $350, you do not need to go any further in your search. This crossbow is packed with high-end features for performance and for safety as well.
Just getting a pink crossbow that shoots arrows at normal speeds is not enough. Catering to our female audience, we bring you the options suited to your requirements including some of the best crossbows for the money and the best crossbows for beginners from the top brands in the world.
This option by Barnett is no exception to the premium quality crossbows that they always put out with a draw weight of 150 lbs, this killing machine shoots at 350 FPS assuring you a kill shot. A 150 lbs draw weight might become a double-edged sword if this did not come with a rope-cocking device.
Another feature to consider the Whitetail Hunter II is its lightweight, yet durable design. Weighing at an eye-opening 6.4 lbs only, this crossbow is one of the lightest in weight on the market. This does not in any way decrease its performance, with the arrow flying at a speed of 350 FPS and containing 103 lbs pounds of energy, it is sure to bring down a big buck in one shot.
Barnett comes up on our list again with another fantastic crossbow, the TS390. This is our suggestion for the best crossbow for women in their youth who want that extra speed and power during a hunt.
Shooting at an amazing speed of 390 FPS, the TS390 takes the crown of the fastest crossbow on our list. You might consider this the best crossbow for hunting deer because of the sheer velocity this baby can drop. However, speed is not everything.
With Barnett’s patented STR (Step-Through Riser) design and CNC Machined Aluminum flight track, you will get increased accuracy and precision. Additionally, the String Dampeners will assure that you get a quiet, accurate, and smooth shot.
The TS390, along with being the most powerful crossbow, is also one of the safest options available on the market. It is equipped with an ADF (Anti Dry-Fire) trigger and Nock sensors which prevent the crossbow from dry-firing. It also comes with finger guards and finger safety reminders.
This option contains a lot of features that will excite the hunter inside you, the most compelling being the price of this crossbow. Keeping the cost below $700, Barnett has one-upped its competitors.
Like many of the crossbows in this price range, the TS390 comes almost fully assembled. The part that is left has a single bolt assembly process, so you can peace of mind from the assembly aspect. It comes with a tactical adjustable buttstock, which is why this was our pick for adventure-seeking women. This crossbow can be customized just for you with the adjustable stock. It also allows for the integration of the Barnett crank cocking device.

Number 4 on the list and our female audience are presented with another top brand in the industry. Excalibur, named after the legendary sword of King Arthur lives up to the expectations you have when you hear the name associated with the weapon of a king.
The Matrix Grizzly Crossbow has most of the features that you look for in a high-end crossbow. It’s sleek and innovative design gives it the premium look and is also why the crossbow only weighs 5.5 lbs. This is one of the most lightweight crossbows that we have seen that still throws an arrow at a respectable 305 FPS.
The people who were discouraged by the price point of the Matrix series rejoiced when the Matrix Grizzly came out and was priced around $500.
Excalibur has priced this option to be economical out of the Matrix series but has not compromised on safety, durability, quality, or performance. The Matrix Grizzly comes with a super-strong SMF composite frame which makes it and is reviewed to be almost indestructible.
It comes partially assembled, for the safety of the bow during shipping. However, assembling this is quite easy and requires only two bolts to screw the bow to the stock and that’s it.
Pros

Safe to use
Extremely lightweight
Great price point

Have to fire to de-cock it if you are inexperienced
