Like you after 38 yrs of hunting I got my first crossbow, didn't want to spend a lot of $$$$, friend of mine was in the same boat he purchased a Centerpoint 380 Tormentor. I shot his in early January and I ended up purchasing one. I was very surprised on the quality, even the fit and finish was great, trigger is just fine, set up was easy as well. The scope that came with it was clear & crisp but not illuminated....Did some researching and decided on a SA SPORT 550, the supplied quiver wasn't good so I purchased a Kwikkee Kiver. The bolts aren't that great, good enough to play around with and I will use as a discharge bolt, hunting bolts will be ordered from South Shore Archery.
