I have a Trophy Ridge XV530IR speed comp scope. It was made by Hawke for TR. Looking for some thing similiar with better magnification and offering a more superior low light clarity at dawn and dusk. I shoot a CP Sniper 370. TIA.

Note: After having a reverse total shoulder replacement, I can no longer hunt with a vertical bow.

Bought this one over the summer, have it mounted and sighted in. Have hunted with it about a dozen times. Getting 6-7 minutes longer in the stand before the kids say they cant see. I'm very satisfied with it. Shop arpound, I picked it up for $130

Not sure of your budget, but I’ll tell you what I personally think is the best option besides a Garmin. Ravin makes something called an adjustable jack plate. Wyvern creations sells it for $270. It’s a scope base that you dial. Shoot your bow through a chrono and then put the included sticker for your speed on the dial.
Then you can get pretty much any rifle scope you want for it. Crossbows and pellet guns have a “forward recoil” which used to mess up regular rifle scopes, but most scopes these days will hold up to it. I had the jack plate with a meopta rifle scope on my ravin a few years back, before I went back to a compound bow. It would split arrows out to 60 with ease, and shoot a really tight group out to 100.

I swapped original garbage scope on Barnett unit with Nikon. It is sweet and stays useful till dark. Not sure if they still make them though. Paid $130-140 for it several years back.
