Welcome to the forum kybosstom!
Two major cross-roads you have to deal with is how much will you shoot and do you want a compound or recurve?
X 2....Also take a look at what type(woods,open country,stalking/still)hunting you will be doing,this could also sway your opinion on what style crossbow to buy,recurvers are wider then compoundsso that might help you decide,I bought both a Vortex anda 10point Pro Fusion and like em both,also take a look at how far away your shop is I only say this because a recurve is easy to changea string on in the woods where as a compound you would need to take it to a shop that can handle the compound in there press...
Good Luck..
