thx for the decent replies on the bow, I mean, like andrew said, it's really personal chosing a bow. I had the opportunity to hold and shoot the General. When you compare it to my tomkat, which is a damn fine bow for the money, it's a world of difference.
Today I decided to not go on my first hunting trip next januari. I am confident enough but I still lack concistency in my shots and after my dryfire accident, the tomkat's gotten out of tune. I don't think I can get it back in order before the end of januari, because of lack of time and shooting time at the range.

One thing the dryfiring my bow did was showing me how good it would be to have a "back up" bow, which my tomkat will become once I have the general in my ranks....
