LAHUNTER, I just ordered a Alpha 1 today. I can give you a complete run down on it more in a few days. Here' s what I know now, the riser is longer than the SBD, limbs angled back more. They are supposed to be quiet. My Tominator is! Also faster than the SBD. Renegade has a lifetime warrenty on limbs, riser and cams. Does not cover string, cable and grip. Check them out at www.renegadebows.com. I' ll fill you in more after I shoot the bow this weekend.
