Either should be a good choice. The Centerpoint is a rebadged Chinese bow, but seems to have good quality control and gets great reviews for the price. The Wicked Ridge is Ten Points low end line, and is made in America as far as I know. I have shot one of the WR bows and the trigger was terrible. Not sure if they are all like that or if they can be smoothed out. The CP bows from what I hear have a decent trigger. If I were buying in that price, I would likely go with the Centerpoint or try to find a used Excalibur (lifetime warranty that seems to transfer ok).
