Thank you for the help.
I'm in the same boat.Getting older,eyes failing ect. I shot a few crossbows and still had a hard time picking one out.Everyone has told me your first crossbow will end up in the closet for a backup.I ended up going with the Wicked Ridge Invader w/scope.Took it out shot it at 20,30,40,50 yds.Its already sighted in.I tried the 3 dot site but for me the reticle scope works best.I had trouble seperating the dots cause of old eyes.I'm ready for spring turkey

Good Luck
