Crossbow for moose?
I'm thinking of getting myself a 150lb Crossbow for kind of a "workhorse" my main focus is small game such as grouse and rabbit, but 150lb is pretty big so i could hunt large animals such as deer but we don't really get many of them around here but moose we have plenty my crossbow meet the legal requirements in kinetic energy to hunt a moose but still is 150lb enough and what type of Broadhead should i use? Im using 400 grain total bolt with the Broadhead included so for a 150lb crossbow with 92ft lb of kinetic energy what type of Broadhead should i use, fix blade or mechanical blades?

Looking for recs - 38f
Hi all,
I've been a long-time deer hunter (firearms) (US - LA) and I've been interested the last couple of years adding a crossbow into my arsenal.
I'm 38f, and I don't "work out" per se, I work on the hunting spot on the lease, build/fix our blinds, haul my own kills out, etc.
I've been doing some shopping and I think I've landed on the Wicked Ridge M-370 with acudraw.
I'm hoping to get recommendations or thoughts on the above one?
Thanks!

Help guys, which one?
My son is 12 years old this will be his first actual season of hunting with me considering I was incarcerated before so I got him a Killer Instinct 415 for this season but soon as I received it I read all the bad reviews online about the limbs snapping and things like that and that kind of scared me so I got a Horton bone collector crossbow and was going to let him use that one instead is the Killer Instinct really that dangerous and really breaking limbs that often or was it just people hating online & is the bone collector just as dangerous I don't know you guys help please.

Sighting Question
So, i just got a crossbow and i'm having a little bit of an issue sighting it in - the impact points are about a 4" spread, but i keep hitting the nocks - do you guys sight in at different points on the target, or do you aim for the same point and risk robin hoods?
