I read the review and don't agree. The L-Zone can be had for $119 and has an unconditional life time warranty, simple phone call to Danny and you're back in business.

I swapped scopes yesterday. Took the Elite off of Miss Phoenix and put it on Miss Vixen. Have it sighted in at 20 yds. Started shooting and using bottom post with power ring at 6x, at 30yds. arrow was 7" low. Set on 3x it hit 2" low at 30 yds. Set at 2x its 1 1/2" low and at 1.5x it hits dead on at 30 yds.

kvjohndeere,
Aim exactly where you would if you were on level ground. The elevation will make very little difference in POI (Point Of Impact).

You hear about this mostly when shooting a compound bow because the downward angle can mess up your shooting form and cause the shot to be way off. That’s why when shooting a compound bow it is very important to bend at the waist. This does not apply to shooting a crossbow.

If you can, take some practice shots from an elevated platform and see.

Also, if you are shooting fixed blade broadheads, they can (and likely do) shoot different than field points. The very first set of broadheads I ever shot out of my crossbow hit in front of the target at 20 yards. It was a major wakeup for me.
