I shoot, and tentatively plan to keep shooting, a Matthews Outback. But, I got a really good deal from a guy for a bow/climbing stand combo. I had been looking for a good used climbing stand and stumbled upon this deal. The stand is a Summit Goliath SS, but that isn't important...on to what is.

I got a Bear Lights Out, outfitted with a QAD drop away rest, Impact Archery pendulum sight, what looks like some cheapo stabilizer (solid black, no writing on it anywhere and about 6" long) and a Plano SE Pro Series 44 bow case. The bow was bought new in August '09, this guy is just getting out of deer hunting now. When I got home I adjusted the draw length to my pull of 30", but it still seemed maybe just a tad short. Could just be that it feels different than what I am used to. I flung a few arrows and liked it pretty well...I shot one of these bows a couple years ago, and like it then as well. Does seem to have a somewhat aggressive draw cycle, but not a difficult one.

Enough rambling...down to the nitty gritty. What are some of your opinions on this bow? How would you compare it to my Matthews Outback? I have never shot pendulum sights and am skeptical to say the least...is this warranted? Thanks in advance for your input!
