Thanks Kat. I watched a video of the new model and the hand shock was very minimal for a bow so cheaply priced. I love the wisker b. on my bows I see no reason to go to a drop type,such a simple design and the speed issue is minimal with the w.b. I'm glad to here you say you took Deer at 30 plus yards so I'm sure it will do what you need in closer than those distances. Thanks for your input.
