Thanks for the info guys. When I was shopping around about a year and a half ago, I tried short and long ata bows. Longest was 38" I believe. The 34" Q2 seemed too short for me at the time, and the longer Q2XL fit me perfect. However, this last October I had the chance to try out the Q2 again and was very impressed over my XL. I think it just had something to do with bad habits not letting me fully feel the potential of the bow. I doubt I will go over 28" with a loop, but might try 28&1/2 or 29 shooting off the string. KE #'s like what Matt mentioned is what I am looking for.
I'm thinking I'll be satasfied with a bow around 34" ata, but I plan to try out the SQ2, mighty might and maybe even a, ugggh, hoyt. <img src=icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle>
I can't wait to start field testing some of these! <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
Is the Bowtech Patriot the new 2002 model for them? I swear that Matt is getting paid for his statements about Bowtech! Maybe you'll just have to come up here and show me how effective they are on caribou!
