Wicked Ridge Invader M1 Lead

If you want extreme crossbow performance and value, you will be hard-pressed to beat the Wicked Ridge Invader M1 crossbow for 2024. The Invader has been a best-seller for Wicked Ridge since 2010, and new technologies make the new model narrower, shorter, lighter and easier to cock or de-cock. The reverse-draw bow weighs 5.8 pounds and is 9.5 inches wide when cocked, and shoots 390 feet per second. The new M1 is 32 inches long and features the ACUdraw built-in crank cocking device, reducing cocking weight to 5 pounds.

The aluminum riser and limb pockets are stable and reduce vibration. The tactical stock further reduces weight. The Invader M1 comes with a new Pro-View 400 4x32 lighted scope with a reticle with aiming points to 70 yards and can be calibrated for shooting 380 to 420 fps. The crossbow is sold as a package ready to hunt with a scope, three carbon arrows and a quiver.

Alligator Hunting Opportunities Are Expanding

This year, both Florida and Louisiana are expanding or introducing new opportunities for alligator hunts. For decades, Florida has estimated that there are over one million in the state—it is, of course, hard to count alligators. Louisiana now says its alligator population exceeds three million. The two states have managed their alligator populations very differently over the last half century, but now both are expanding hunting opportunities to help manage alligator populations.
