Well, my 2002 Cybertec is ordered and on the way, cant tell you yet on how it will shoot. But I do have a Parker ultra-lite 31 that I have been shooting for hunting and 3-D and the short axle to axle parker is the best 3-D bow I have owned as well as best hunting bow! I shoot the short bow better for 3-D than I did my Mathews MQ-1 I used to shoot! So, personally I feel a short axle to axle bow can be both a great 3-D rig as well as hunting bow! I bought the cybertec with the intentions of it being my 3-D bow, and backup bow to the Parker 31. If the cybertec dosent shoot up to the Parkers standards Im used to.....then??? Its just a backup bow! But I wouldnt be afraid to go with the Havoctec as your all-around bow! It sure is nice hunting with a light, short axle bow!
