Default RE: Admiral performance is very impressive!

Keith- I believe thats what Tommy at the shop used-crazy looking thing. Works well. The loop is a little long to look at but the draw length is fine. I felt a little bit cramped up with the smaller loop I had on it initially and my Tru-Ball Short & Sweet. as I said, maybe over time I'll get that brass nock off and "clean up" the knots, but for now it works fine, and I'm happier than a pig in you know what with the performance. Getting 4-6 more FPS would just be obnoxious bragging

Frank- Nothing objectionable as of yet- I don't have a ton of arrows on it- I have a couple of nitpicks though-nothing to make me regret the purchase, just little annoyances.

1) As mentioned in the lefty admiral thread, the draw stop screw needs to be replaced- it's going to be way too easy to strip that screw head.

2) I think the multitude of miniscule/hard to see timing dots is a bit much- My eyes are not what they used to be I have a really hard time checking them- Half the number of dots and bigger would work just fine.

3) The grip could/should be squared off a bit more- it is a bit more difficult to repeat your grip by feel because it is rounded off.

4) Cable clearance is a little tight with blazers and I can see the edge of the cables in my sight picture


Nothing major- #s 1 & 3 are the biggest "issues" IMO.
