Wicked Ridge Crossbow Sling

Neoprene is the dominant material for crossbow slings because it has some give and cushioning compared to a flat nylon strap - meaningful when you're carrying a loaded crossbow (often 7-8 lbs with a scope and bolts) for an extended walk. An adjustable 1.25" wide strap with a thumb loop is the common configuration, letting you dial in length for your body size and the way you prefer to carry.

One useful fact specific to slings: the mounting hardware and stud spacing used across TenPoint, Wicked Ridge, and Horton crossbows is shared, since Horton is a related TenPoint-family brand. That means a neoprene sling explicitly listed as compatible with "All TenPoint, Wicked Ridge & Horton Crossbows" will fit your Wicked Ridge bow regardless of which specific model you own - you don't need to hunt for a sling listed under the exact Wicked Ridge model name.

You'll see both a sling sold directly under the TenPoint name and a generic compatible version with essentially the same spec (adjustable 1.25" strap, thumb loop). Functionally they serve the same purpose - the branded version carries the manufacturer name, while the compatible version is built to the same mounting spec at a similar price point. Either works on an Invader M1 or Warrior 400 since both use the same stud-mount sling system.

Most Wicked Ridge crossbows have dedicated sling studs molded into the stock - one forward near the fore-grip and one at the rear of the stock. Clip the sling's swivel hardware onto both studs, adjust the strap length so the crossbow rides comfortably across your back or shoulder without the limbs catching on brush, and double check the swivels are fully seated before relying on the sling to carry a loaded bow.
