I shoot a showdown as well, and again like above, it is a very nice bow to shoot, smooth and quiet. I bought as a package, depending on the price you are paying it might be the best way to go. Any package I've seen with Fred Bear bows comes with a Whisker Biscuit, Trophey Ridge Sight and Quiver, not to mention the string loop and peep sight...

The most important thing to do would be to shoot one and see how it feels, the nice thing about it is, you can set it at a range of draw lengths, which is why I liked it...I needed a longer draw
