He is happy with it. I do not like the string they sent with bow. Brace height is 8 inches or better and thats after I took some twist out. I also have not checked draw weight but it was supposed to be 45lbs at 28 inches. I ordered it at hunting weight since he isnt too far off from it on compound. He only pulls a 24 or 25 inch draw. I figured the bow would come in closer to the 40lb range and would be less at his draw. I was wrong it seems to be more. I will have to string it again and check weight. I know once it is shot in it may drop some weight.
Complain to Jim at rudder. 8" is way too much. But it should stretch to 7" after being shot. Should be more like 5.5-6" for a longbow IMO.
