I am looking to get into crossbow hunting. I have been deer hunting with a shotgun for a few years now and I think I want to extend my season a bit. Anyone have suggestions for a decent setup <$500?

Use a compound bow

I have thought about that too. For some reason the crossbow is getting more interest from me. A few buddies bow hunt. About 1/2 said to try the crossbow and 1/2 are saying to be traditional and go compound.

Go crossbow in my opinion. Stick with the brand names. Don't ask why... You should be able to get a decent model with a 3 dot red dot for your budget.

The Barnetts I have handled at Cabellas shoot very well

Obviously out of the price range you mentioned, but I couldn't resist posting this dream crossbow that mounts on an AR-15 lower.
