Default Reflex Caribou??

Was wondering if anyone shoots the Reflex Caribou, and what you think of it. I'm a finger shooter and am definitely considering it because of the a t a and the roomy brace height. What kind of fps do you get out of it? I realize it is far from a fast setup. Thanks.

My guess depending on what weight arrows what you have on the string what poundage what draw lenght would probably in the lower 200fps the ibo is 254fps but without more info on your side its hard to determine. either way Chuck adams(super slam) has had no problems taking any game down.

I was considering one, but I'm not a finger shooter with my compound. Anyway it has a terrific riser and has an extremely smooth draw cycle. Hey, that's Chuck Adams bow of choice. But like you mentioned it is not a speed bow. I would sugggest sending Arthur P a PM or email, I'm sure you can find him in the traditional forum. He knows a lot about that bow.

That would be the bow I would get if I were to get a new one. I shoot finger also. Right now I shoot a 02 Hoyt Protec with LXPRO Limbs and accuwheels. Simular specs as the Caribou. AtoA 46 3/4 and a 8 1/2 brace height. I love the new 05 Caribou it almost looks like a Protec except fot the cool hoof print cutouts in the riser. It really is probably the best finger bow out there and also one of the few designed especially for a finger shooter .And Im sure its less expensive than a new protec. As a fellow finger shooter You will love the Carbou. And who cares about speed speed does not kill accuracy does.
Good Luck.

P.S I recomend a cavalier freeflyte rest with a cavalier master lok plunger.
