A crossbow having a bow prod with a string attached to its opposite ends, engageable by a releasable catch for holding the string at a cocked position spaced rearwardly from the bow prod. The releasable catch is mounted to a cocking mechanism that is slidably movable along a rod, the fore end portion of which is connected to the midsection of the bow prod. The cocking mechanism, when adjacent to the fore end portion of the rod, permits the bowstring to be drawn back by means of a mechanical leverage advantage obtained from the cocking mechanism.
