Good comments above. Something to consider though. I often see the "one pin to the 30 yards" comments. In regard to that...if you take any bow with an actual speed of 265 fps + and you sight your top pin at 24-26 yards then you can basically use one pin out to about 33 yards without really having to compensate by holding high or holding low.

With this thought in mind, and considering most shots are under 30 yards (if not under 20) then I think the General would fit the bill nicely...especially considering the shot feel. Nothing wrong with the 101st Airborne either but I do prefer my shorter bows.
