Default RE: I need help?(General or 82nd)

ORIGINAL: Hunter Dan7

i have shot both the 82nd and the 101st and i personaly like the 82nd better but i shot the 82nd one day and shot the 101 a couple weeks later so i guess i need to shoot them back to back before i decide between them. i do like the A to A on the Airbornes. I also like the speed of the Airbornes. the General has a 8 1/4 inch Brace height and the 82nd has a 6.125 inch brace height and the 101 has a 7 1/4 inch brace height. the General is 31.188 inchA to A and the 82nd is 36.5 inch A to A and the 101 has a 36.25 A to A. Do you think that the longer brace height on the General will Make up for the shorter A to A.
I have all 3 and I'm not sure what your Draw length is, but my feelings are if you are 29" or longer then take a hard look at the 101. If you are 28.5" or shorter then the 82 is the bow I would look at. As far as the General short bows are not for everyone, but if you like them then the General is Super in all respects. My General is getting rigged for Turkeys, and after that I am sure the 82 and 101 will get the majority of work from me.
