Default fred bear code review

well, this is the review forum, so i will give an official review of this bow.

one word sums up this bow completely......DAYUM....

got mine in a few days ago, and so far and am blown away.

In the looks department, all I have to say is it is one sexy beast. It looks a lot better in person than the crappy pictures online. The real tree hardwoods green looks amazing, and is definately done in the highest of quality.

speed, at an ibo of 310, this bugger is fast. i haven't chrono'd yet, but im betting it will be sizzling.

Sound- quiet as a freaking mouse! can barely hear the bow go off! its almost like the sound of the arrow going through the air is louder!

smoothness, smooth as a baby's bottom, definately comparable to those of the switchback.

grip and feel, imo, much better than the switchback, trykon, and allegiance! it has a very nice steady feel to it that is unmatched!

my arrows are consistantly touching at every distance!


I could not be happier with this bow.

My setup is as follows for reference,

06 fred bear code
30" draw
62# (hopefully going to get her at the full 70 once my arms bulk up a little.)

Although I am new to archery, i shot the trykon, the switchback, and the allegiance at the shop the same day that i picked up the code, just to make sure what i was getting into, and imo the code was easily equal if not better in some areas to the top 3.

and at only $499, it is an orgasmic deal!
