I need to also go back state that if I can find a bow that is just sweet to tthe touch and it shoots in the 270's Im fine with it. I have realized that What I want to shoot is a 365 gr arrow at 70# with any bow, and i realize that most bows won't do what the X force does for me, but I think my problem is the 6" brace. It is soo hard to get used too. Matt/Tn, yeh I know thebrace has nothing to do with, I was just thinking of forgiveness. I want really want few things out of a bow as far as hunting matters

1. shoot one pin to 25 yds.
2. be fast enough that deer won't have much chance to jump the string.
3. Consistency
4. smoothness when drawing and shooting

If any of you have shot the X force 6" bh then you know how hard it is.
