Default martin

Hey guys, i am thinking on buying my brother a Martin Cheetah for his birthday next week. It's going to be a surprise, so he wont be able to shoot it.
I just wanted to know if any of you guys have one, or have any information on how it shoots/ etc.
any input would be great. thanks

Why not just give him a paper that says new bow your choice. Then take him out and let him shoot a few so you can be sure he gets the bow that's right for him. A bow is a pesonal choice and IMO needs to be shot by the person who is gonna own it prior to the purchase. JMHO

Between me and two of my cousins we own the
New Martin
PANTERA
BENGAL
AND CHEETAH

They are all very nice bows and he will be happy with it.
The Pantera is VERY accurate and stable
The Bengal is nice sized, easy to handle, and a little faster
The Cheetah is nice and compact, fast, and has very nice feeling and handling.

I am sure he will be happy but i would recomend YOU shooting them to see which one you like best

I have a 2000 Martin Jagaur and it gets the job done. Its also unbelievebly quiet. Somtimes I think of getting a new bow but I cant think of 1 bad thing to put up against my Jaguar. I got it second hand 2 years ago for $200 bucks. Couldnt be happier
