Ok, Ill be the first to go the other direction, I started out 30 years ago with a Bear Whitetail, man, you talk about slow, but I killed some animals with it. Around 1989 I bought a Oneida Stike Eagle, man what a difference, my set-up I was shooting 282fps, I also noticed longer shots were able to be made with sucsess. I would still be useing it today"instead of it hanging on my wall" if it wasnt for an arm injury, I need alot more let-off now. My next bow was a Reflex I got in 02, good smooth shooting bow, my only drawback is it has no stability, if you draw and shoot you do fine, if you draw and hold there is too much slop " windage movement", I got frustrated with it last year and started shooting different bows. Between Mathews, Martin, Ross, PSE, Hoyt and Bowtech I liked the feel of the Tribute the best, At 70lbs with 85% let-off I can pull it back with no problems, and with the Bianary cams both being the same I dont get all the slop when holding for a long period of time. I also like the speed to use a little hevier arrow set-up to increase the energy, I like pass-through shots. The moral of the story is different strokes for different folks, thats why there are so many companies out there getting all our hard earned cash.
