I had a '98 Jennings Airmaster named Cookie Monster... and I shot piles of deer with it. I really loved that bow, despite the fact that it kicked like a rifle, was a total bear to draw, and sounded like a bomb going off. I retired it in spring of this year. Well,Cookie isn't technically"retired," but I gaveher to a relative of mine whohas zero (maybe less than zero) chance of ever killinganything with it. Sad really, when you think about it.

That said, it wouldn't hold a candle, performance-wise, to my'07 HCA IronMace (also aptly-named "Cookie Monster"). The new bow is really growing on me.
