Looking for a new bow

jeffmiller · 09-24-2003, 12:57 PM

My old P.S.E.' s limbs are starting to twist, I' ve had it for 8 years. I decided to buy a new bow this winter. I want a bow with a long ATA, at least 38" , preferably more. Also a solo cam, with a relatively smooth draw cycle. I' m not looking for super speed, just a dependable bow that I can shoot. I shoot instinctively, so I prefer a smooth draw cycle. Any ideas? I' ve looked at a Mathews Conquest 3, and it seems nice, but expensive. However, I' ll spend the money if I have to. Thanks.

Hoyt has a new bow out now that depending on limb choice and cam choice can get you up to 47" . I' m leaning toward their 46" 1.5 cam.

But I keep forgetting the stupid name of it!!!

Okay, I found it. It' s a Hoyt ProTec. Not sure I like the riser, but it should be a nice shooting finger bow.

You can get it in a 41" with the accu wheels.

Parker pro 38 would be one to check , merlin max 3000 -long limb - omega cam another to check for sure .

I' ve never heard anyone say anything was smoother than a Darton, and they make bows in that ATA catagory. As a bonus, they reportedly deliver their stated IBO speeds, which are on the higher end of normal. Could be the best of both worlds.
