HD - Looks like we have a lot in common. I have 3 Martins. I love them. They are fast quiet and deadly accurate. They also have excellent CS. I bought a demo Firecat 2 years ago. The shop put a brand new string on it and set it up with peep and D loop. I came home and about the 3rd shot thru it the string just exploded. Must have been defective as it broke between the peep and the D loop. Cracked the upper limb. I took it back to the shop and he called Martin. They sent him new limbs, cams, cable, string and everything else it needed. The great prat was that they were not Firecat replacements but for the newer Onza which I think, used the same riser. That bow is visciously fast and very accurate and quiet. I shot a mature bison bull with it this past fall at 27 yds. The bow was set at 64#, 28" draw, 5575 GT arrows and 100 gr 2 blade Magnus Stinger. That arrow blew thru ribs on both sides completely passing thru and just kept on going. I never found the arrow and the bison only went 75 yds before going down.
