Default what's the difference?

Can someone tell me what is the difference between the axiom and the phoenix. Also is the stock the only thing difference between the phoenix and the ibex? Will be getting one soon for deer hunting and I not sure which one to get. Thanks for any info.

I did that and also read the excaibur pamphlet and the only thing I can see is mass weight Ibex 6.2 lbs. overall lenght 36.4", Phoenix 6.3 lbs. , overall lenght 37.5" and Axiom 6.0 lbs. and overall lenght 37.5" everything else is the same. But the price is very difference so they have to have something?

The Axiom is a stripped down version of the Pheonix. It has a generic camo and lacks disapator bars(the bars with pads that contact the front of the limbs) and only comes in a kit form. This coming year it will come with a polymer rail.
The Ibex, Pheonix and the Ibex are all functionally the same. If you are only hunting then the Axiom is perfect.
The Ibex is one inch shorter because of the stock.

No dissapator bars on the Axiom; new ones has the rail made of composite vs aluminum on Phoenix. Same good bow responsive company.

If you like a T-hole stock the 175 lb Ibex will do nicely. The other 2 models are same poundage & very nice regular stock models. They're all winners!
