[QUOTE="Flinger, post: 78668, member: 546"] Keep in mind that I believe its Colorado and Montana have a 80% max let off. Just passing on the info because id hate to see an animal get taken from someone. You can get 75 and 65 mods for this bow. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] Also I've heard great things about Elite but I hate saying that because I think you should, in part, forget about the brand name. My recommendation is figure out what generally you are looking for.... find your price range, how much does speed matter to you (looking for something above say 340ibo?), axle to axle length..... I always go short cuz a few inches seems to matter especially in a ground blind but even around trees, available camo patterns (because if you're like my one buddy you gotta make sure you look cool I guess) easy switch draw lengths instead of new cam, and in part for me the size-width of the hand grip. These can be swapped out once purchased but not in store when testing. When you have a good idea here you should be able to find 3 bows at Scheels in this range. Grab the bows and have the archery department change the draw length to your desired length. You will need to tell them you are purchasing one or you will meet some resistance here! Lol. If you are a new hunter know your DL before you go or many shops will tell you its 28" Shoot all 3. Buy the one that feels most comfortable to you. If u need another day they will hold them. Another thing as mentioned above, many prefer a solid back wall at end of the draw. I know many people don't or won't do this but its my recommendation. Ive done this for me and friends several times. I can't afford a new bow every other year, otherwise this probably wouldn't be as important. Just my advice. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] Wow, okay after rereading your post after I wrote all that, I see you got it narrowed down to 4 and have a good idea of what you want. Just shoot those 4 and pick the most comfortable. Hopefully that long post can help someone else. Lol. [/QUOTE]
