CBM, my thoughts exactly. I was really taken back by that. It does seem to have a more pronounced "shock" than some of the others I shot. Yes, a stab will take care of it. When I shot it, it seemed to want to "jump" out of my hand too much.
Its a great, great bow though. Quiet and smoother than any bow I've shot.
I'd shoot one in a heart beat if I was still looking for a bow and the Xtec didn't exist.
