Hey OG people,  I need help in deciding on an illuminated crossbow scope as I want to upgrade from what I have.  Any recommendations that will not break the bank will be appreciated as this is my first year hunting with one.  Thanks

Take a look at the Hawke Line of Crossbow Scopes. They are fantastic, have different options for crosshairs, and illumination. They also have yardage and speed of bow adjustments. Reasonably priced too. Good luck.....

Shoot me a pm. My buddy sells crossbows and accessories. I can get you in touch with him. He's treated me good on everything and will do the same for others. I've bought a couple crossbows from him as well as upgraded the scopes (believe they were what came with the Ravn crossbows). They're clear and have 2 colors for illumination with several brightness settings. Having looked through the scopes I've got and the Hawke series, there's not enough difference for me to pick up on even during low light. One sits on top of a Killer Instinct SWAT and the other on a KI Ripper 415. At 60 yards, groups are under an inch with Zombie Slayer bolts. I say all this as if I use them a lot but my preference is for a vertical bow. However, recent years (injuries) have lead to a transition at times. Couple years ago I had to have back surgery so couldn't practice. Therefore, a crossbow was needed in order to hunt. Right now my left RC in my shoulder is damaged and have tendinitis in my right elbow so bad it hurts to make a fist. Hoping to get back to shooting soon because I just bought a new Prime Rival and Carter release prior to the elbow situation. But, hunting is hunting and I'll use whatever I have to that allows me the chance. Plus, I do prefer the x-bow on the urban hunt. It reduces the odds of a bad hit (target panic minimizes my success) and having to chase deer through the city streets.
