Wicked Ridge Invader - Customer Testimonial

Had a great story come across the desk that we wanted to share -

"Dear Gentlemen:

     I am writing to thank you for making a great crossbow.  It has proved to work well for me, and I am looking forward to using it in the future hunts for various game animals.

     I haven't used a crossbow until last year, and I purchased a Wicked Ridge Invader from Cabela's in Rapid City, SD.  My crossbow was equipped with the Ridge-Dot scope that I really like and it is very accurate.  I purchased Cabela's brand of arrow which are of carbon maaterial and got field points, G5 hunting points, and G% pre-season points.  I did my practicing at 20, 30, and 40-yards.  I practiced at my hom until I felt comfortable shooting at these ranges. 

     Our Wyoming Elk Hunting Season for Archery opened on September 1, 2012.  May hunting partner and I began hunting in many different areas - calling to locate a Bull Elk that we both had tags for.  We finally were able to get a nice bull to com to our calling on the 14th.

     I shot the Bull at 45 yards - he travelled 60 yards and was down.  He is a 6 x 6 with great ivory points and very dark antlers.  I might add that I found part of the arrow inside of him as I dressed him, and then later found the other part that went clear through him.  That really shows the power of this crossbow!

     I might add that I killed this bull exactly 11 months to the day after having a massive heart attack and open heart surgery with three bypasses.  It was also just 2 months before my 79th birthday.

     Thanks for great products!"
