Default Bowtech Blackhawk

I was just wondering if any of u guys have shot the Bowtech Blackhawk bow? I would like to know if it has much recoil or shock? I like the way it has an 8 inch brace and shoots 317, but does the 28.5 inch axle to axle make it tougher to shoot? My draw length is only 27. I was just wanting some opinions on this bow?

Thanks

I was also interested in it and want to learn more about it. The $469.00 price tag makes me wonder what is different about it when compared to the other bowtechs.
Saw it on the compound bow comparison chart. But know nothing else about it.

The shop I was in sells BOWTECH, pse, and Mathews.
I went looking for a good light hunting bow, the owner recommended the
BOWTECH BLACKHAWK. I was concerned about the short axle length,but he said he shoots this bow with no problems, so he let me try his( draw weight 60# draw length 27&quot which is a little short for me.
I shot it at about 15 yds because it had no peep and I am used to using a peep. I put 2 out of 3 arrows in the same hole! Ordered one for myself!!!
I definitly didn't have any problem with the short axles.
First single cam bow I have shot. Liked the 80% letoff.
It should make a good hunting bow.

I felt no handshock or recoil,but I shoot open hand can,t feel handshock
or recoil that much.A bow will try to jump out of my hand,but this bow just sat there.that is one of the reasons I decided to buy one.
