I had no idea that Elite was that good!
I am looking at buying a more forgiving bow to shoot ASA 3D competitions with since my 82nd it too fast. I was thinking that the Diamond Iceman would be it, but that was before I saw what Elite had. The GT500, Z-28, and XLR are absolutely incredible. Forget the new Mathews with a 5" brace height, I'll take the 7+"er any day. Now I just need to find proshop that sells them and put the cash together.

I just remembered hearing about Elite somewhere, so I googled them and found this. Crazy, right?

Just found out about the new High Country. 352 fps IBO and a 7" BH. Also impressive. It looks a lot like the GT500, only with different cams. I will have to hive that a try as well.

Elite is kind of like a BT with Barnsdale limbs, and they have the benefit of having some inside info. from a former BT engineer. Germ's Elite had a pretty harsh draw cycle but a super nice wall when I drew it, he could give you some input, on them probably if you're really interested, and he's a LEFTY as well.

That poor man. Sure, I'd love to hear what Germ has to say. The only thing I can think of right now is how it compares to an 82nd's draw cycle.

I'd draw one before you buy. Theyhave a harsh draw cycle. Very reminsicent of my old Black Knight II.
