I just don' t like these short Axle to axle jobs for any kind of shooting. In hunting conditions where odd positions and form and anxiety of the moment can add to the problems of short bows.... it can be disasterous. Personnally, I wouldn' t buy ANY of these 34 inch and minus bows. Mine is 37 1/2. Small enough and very forgiving with a little practice and experimentation to see what the inherent problems can be. Low brace height is not as critical a factor as some make it out to be.... especially if you' re shooting off a Muzzy Zero.[:-]
