Default Patriot buyers

Hey all,
I'm curious if most you buying the Pat are useing it mainly for hunting or target shooting? I pretty much only hunt with my bow and shoot in the back yard, I've been looking for a new bow for quite awhile and ordered my Mighty Mite last week. For what I do the MM had me at first shot. <img src=icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle>

Gro,

I only hunt now. I used to 3D quite a bit. Now I just backyard shoot (though I'm deadly serious about accuracy).

I got the bow knowing I wnated to take it in the woods only, buti just prefer a more 3-D type setup for more stability.

I love my MM as well, and you made a good choice for strictly a hunting bow.

Need a backup MM? <img src=icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle>

You never know I might need an extra,after I get rid of the old Reflx Extreme,I just can't wait to get my hands on the new one,What do you folks recommend for a stabilzer on the MM ? I'm using a X-ring sil on the Extreme and that does a pretty good job,but once you get started buying it's soooo hard to stop,I'm thinking a Copper John Dead Nuts for a new sight. <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle> What happened to all the Patriot folks I see alot of people have been reading but not to many responding,not that it really matters I was just curious!

gromage.....I am getting mine strictly as a hunting bow-30&quot; @70#
I have a Pro38 Dual Cam that is going to be very tough to beat for any 3D applications....I wanted 2 great bows, and since I commited to 60# on the Pro38 and 3D style accessories.....looks like the Patriot will be my hunter.
I don't think you can go wrong with either for hunting or 3D.....I chose the Pro38 for 3D because of the ability to shoot high speeds at very low draw weight, but either bow has a very stable shooting platform.

I'm sure the Patriot will see some 3D action in it's hunting attire as the season approaches.....it's just too much fun to shoot.

Boy I'm gonna have it tough.<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>
