About Ravin Crossbows

At Ravin, we are a group of hard-core hunters and product designers who never stop pushing to achieve superior performance. Our focused goal is to build the most accurate crossbows on the planet, and then make them even better – year after year.

 

Working with the industry’s most brilliant engineers and drawing from our 20-year track record in archery product development, we literally re-invented the crossbow with the development of HeliCoil technology. This revolutionary design results in an incredibly efficient, compact, fast and balanced crossbow with rifle-like downrange accuracy that’s never been seen before. In the words of Outdoor Life, Ravin is “Badass.”

Finally, we listen to crossbow hunters. As die-hard enthusiasts ourselves, we deliver what you need to take your adventures to new levels. And we’re proud of every successful big-game hunt that we’re a part of.
