Default Opinion on new crossbow

I am a new hunter who just recently purchased my first crossbow, I went with a cheaper crossbow because before I spend a ton of money on one I wanted to make sure that enjoyed to hunt. I purchased the Inferno fury crossbow package from Dicks Sporting goods. Any opinions on this crossbow?

It's a little late now to look for opinions. Good luck!

If you have to ask, I'm thinking you already know.

Good Luck with your new toy and I hope it works out for you. At least you get a good solid no questions asked lifetime warranty with it.
I DO understand that Moolaa can be a big factor. Not everyone can drop $600.00 for a decent well equiped bow in this economy. I hope you whack a few deer with it and then report back that you got a good bow but be afraid.. be very afraid.

Thank you everyone for your input!! I got the crossbow and it seems like a decent bow, but the red dot it came with is terrible, when I first went to shoot the bolt, it flew about a foot over the target. and I adjusted the scope down but to no avail. I am looking for another scope for a decent price, any ideas?
