I got the ballistik that I traded for and have finally had a chance to put some arrows through her. It is VERY quick but has good manners for a fast bow. I don' t have quick access to a chrono but it is noticably faster than my other bows and I get about 2" more penatration on my block target than with my other bows of the same weight.It has a nice dark stained maple riser and maple limbs with some nice grain.The string will bite your bow arm if you get a little sloppy with the form but overall it shoots nice.The looks of the static limbs just doesn' t set well with me and I will probably trade the bow toward another chek-mate when I get the chance but overall I have to give this bow a THUMBS UP Well guess thats my .02 on the ballistik
