I can't decide on the 82nd or 101st. Shot both and they felt great. Loved how they almost lock back into the valley. I'd really like theextra speed of the 82nd out here on the plains. I'm trying to convince myself that the 82nd would be a great hunting bow even with a 6 and 1/8 inch brace height. What is so magical about 7 inches anyway. If I didn't know any better I would have thought they had the same BH. The ones I was shooting were 70lbs and 29 inch DL. Any input appreciated.
