Default Elite archery

Anyone have any experience with Elite Archery bows? Looking to get a new bow and beside the big 4, I'm looking at the Elite Z28. It will be just for hunting, and the 8" bh and short a to a looks very appealing. Didn't shoot it yet but still seems like it would be pretty sweet.

I have been trying to get my hands on one, but I have been told that they have not made any left handed Z28s. Does anyone know when they will be coming out with some for us unfortunate left handed people? I have been told that the Z28 is the smoothest drawing bow ever, and I am very interested.

How do you beat a bow with an 8" BH on top of a 336 IBO[:-]

That's what I thought. I shot it right handed with a 28" draw length (it was the shop owner's bow). Not my specs, but It was sweet. I can't wait for a left handed version.

Thats what I'm talkin about. I was at the shop yesterday and shot everything except the z. I completely forgot about it. Now I have to go back! Oh well.

Been wanting to try them all for a while. I like the specs of the GT500 the best, although im not looking for the speed.

I tried the GT500. It was smoother than my 82nd, but that's not saying much. Still, I liked the feel of the 82nd's shot better. Plus, the GT500 looks too much like the an x-force. I guess I didn't like it. The Z-28 is completely different story.
