Need info on Crossbows

[bubbinator]

Have opportunity to bow hunter Pike Co,IL in Nov!  Have 10 yr old Browning Compound(not shot in that long) and I am now 62, a DAV, and looking at crossbows.  Any suggestions?  I have red dot sights on ARs, handguns so I like those.  My compound has a pendulum site, which I found very accurate from a tree stand, but since narrowly missing a fall from one, I am forever ground blind devotee!   The broadheads on my compound are 150gr 3-blade solid cast units, sharpenable by using a honing stone.  Any and all info will appreciated, including weather/clothes, squirrel info. (We have Fox Squirrels here in Central AL, but they are considered "pretty" due to their varied colors.  My benefactor says they are over-run with them in IL and it is nothing to shoot 20 a day between deer hunts!  I'll bring my 17 HMR!) Thanks for any advice.

 Look at the horton vision. Reverse limb design makes it easier to handle,its quieter than most,ambidexterous. Good luck on that hunt.

IMO I would stay away from the traditional Cross bows and go with the compound models, there are a few with a built crank for cocking, Ten Point, PSE, Horton are very nice, in the non compund area I swear by Excaliber and SLick Trick broad heads

JUst remember they take as much practice as a regular "now a days" bow
