I have owned two different bows that had the same riser as the early Uniforce bows, plus a good friend of mine owned 2 or 3 of them. The Power Balanced riser was a cast magnesium riser that was a pretty decent one for the time. It was slightly reflexed, and balanced well as the name suggests. It is a fairly stout riser, and should be plenty strong. My first "modern" compound bow was a Bear First Strike that was built on that riser. That particular bow had very sloppy limb pockets, which I ended up glass bedding like a rifle stock. Still, it was a very good shooter. I sold it to buy a Hoyt Superslam, and didn't gain very much in terms of shooting accuracy, though the Hoyt was a better made bow. The friend I mentioned had a Carbon Extreme. Same riser, but much better tolerances. Very good performing bow and very accurate. I acquired it from him when he bought his first Uniforce. His Uniforce was quiet for the early '90s, with no Sims technology available at the time. He shot the bow well, and took several deer with it and the newer Uniforce he bought when the 80% letoff cams became available. These early one cams do have quite a bit of vertical nock travel, but still shot and tuned pretty well. My last Bear/Jennings bow of the time period was a Bear Superstrike. It was a very good shooter (I shot my best 3D score ever with that bow), and I kept it and hunted with it for about 5 years. The Uniforce will certainly do the job for deer hunting and 3D shooting, and heck, you are getting it for next to nothing. It should do a good job for you.
