There is a thread on AT right now where someone asked if you had to have one bow to shoot indoor/outdoor targets with as well as hunt, what would it be?

I'm dumbfounded at some of the answers- several people have mentioned something like a Switchback XT or DXT as their one bow.

I don't know about y'all but the LAST thing I would pick to be used for spots or distance would be something in the 29-31" A2A range- unless I couldn't care less what my scores were/how well I did.

My choice would be something like the Elite XLR- I'd opt for a bit longer A2A (for today that is) and a higher brace height. I hunted for years with bows in the 38-44" A2A range with no issues. Even if I had a shorter draw-say 26" or something- I wouldn't be shooting anything less than 35" A2A.

Don't get me wrong- I've had some real tack driver shorty short bows- my Mathews Outback was probably the most forgiving easy to shoot shorty I've owned-and kicked alot of my supposedly "more forgiving/accurate" bows to the curb- but no way in heck would I count on it to win on the Vegas face day in and day out or shoot a field round with.
