Just happens to be my favorite bow to shoot of the three I own. Much easier to **** than the (allegedly) 165 lb Cyclone or the 200 lb Vortex. I can shoot the Phoenix repeatedly despite having both arms surgically repaired and twice-cut back. This is a great bow with more than enough power for deer, bear, even elk. It's easy on serving, arrows and targets yet no problem hitting a 3" target at 50 yards. Uisng a LumiZone scope enables me to match the multiple aimpoint with the trjectory of the arrows I'm using.
BTW, if you like the Phoenix, take a gander at the Ibex, same bow but with thumbhole stock. Exalibur is know for durability, simplicity, ease of maintenace, accuracy and outstanding customer service. And you can un**** the bow without having to shoot it.
