the coyote is a an all aluminum riser with take down limbs and is camo colored. it is a little harsher than an impala or i shoot the martin X-200 which is aroudnt he same price as a coyote but not a take down model. the real advantage ot shooting a take down is you can draw weight by just changing the limbs. the X-200 is one fo the smoothest recurves i have ever shot and i am pulling 55 lbs at 28 inches and it has no vibration or hand shock which to me is the most important thing because it leads to a quiet bow. if you get a chance to shoot the coyote or impala you will definately see the difference and if you get to try the martin X-200 you will find a mid line bow with top of the line qualities
good luck
