Default RE: AR Bows- what do you think of them

The AR34 I think is the perfect bow it's the mid range. I didn't want a bow too short or too long .The 37 is the same length as the bow that I use now and the 31 I'm afraid might be too short and also give's up too much speed. I shot the AR34 and it's so smooth less vibration's even without the stabilizer,That's at least the way I would go.You need to check them all out and see which one you feel more comfortable with. If your hunting from a treestand or stalking in thick cover the shorter the better, if your on the ground you might opt for the longer bow.
Good luck on your choice and I'm sure that you would be happy with any one of them.

I think they are a great bow & shoot good. I see nothing wrong with them & I have yet to hear of actual problems with them from my local dealers. They actually love them & have sold a lot of them.

PSE makes a great product & they back their products up. If you like the way the bow shoots I see nothing wrong with them!

There were problems with risers cracking in 2003.
PSE has since fixed the problem and the 2004 lineup is supposed to be much improved, even awesome some say.
We'll know soon.

In fact I sampled the bow about a week ago. I can tell you it is one of the most balanced bows I have ever held, the design is a little wicked looking, but the bow shoots O.k., personally I like the LX (MATTEWS). Demo all brands and go with the one of your taste. Got steak and taters on the grill boys...

I held one, never shot it, but did inspect it pretty good. Looks real nice, actually it looks pretty sweet with the machining in it. I have heard of problems with them, but like said earlier, PSE supposedly fixed it. But, there is the word "PSE". I don't know about a lot of folks here, but I'm not fond at all of them, so the jury is still out about the AR bows.

To me, they looked like a tricked out Mathews or Bowtech.

Muzzyman! you should try shooting them ,they're quite nice to shoot very smooth. I do know that my pro shop owner used one this year and his wife won severel tourniment's with one . But Gary {Shop owner} say's he's going back to the Hoyt this season,he never said anything bad about the AR but he like's the Hoyt's better.
