I want to get your opinion on the Wicked Ridge Invader. Cabelas has it on sale right now for $499.
It comes with: TenPoint 3x Milti-Lines scope Integrated ACU-52 self retacting rope cocking system Wicked Ridge quiver Three Wicked Ridge aluminum bolts Embroidered sling
Most of the reveiws I have read are pretty good.

My wife got one about a month back - she's consistently nailing center dot at 20/30/40yds... right out of the box.

Thanks, I ordered it a few minutes ago. It should be here in roughly a week.
It has been a long time (20+ years) since I have touched any type of bow. Needless to say broadheads have improved dramatically. I have been looking at the Rage, Swhacker, and Wasp broadheads online. From what I have read the mechanical seem to fly similar to the field points. Does this sound right? What would you guys recommend?

I love the Nap Spitfire maxx broadheads. 1 3/4 inch cut..No rubber bands or O rings..Just a good ol fashioned spitfire. They leave tennis ball sized exit holes.

If i dont buy the Horton Ultra Lite after the first of the yr my next option will be the Wicked Ridge. Ive had my eye on the Horton for 2yrs now just hadnt coughed up the money yet. I will buy something around January though.

Going into year three with my Wicked Ridge Invader. I use Easton Full Metal Jacket bolts with Montec G5 broadheads. It'll take anything in the woods.

BTW, go ahead and order some extra bolts - nothing worse than having a bad practice session and destroying 2 of your 3 bolts when you plan to be in the woods the next day. I ordered some from Buy.com I think, OEM bolts like $36 for 6 of them with field points.
