Congratulations on your new order!! Don't be concerned with shooting a different brand of bow, BowTechs are built VERY well with VERY good strings and cables. I can hardly wait myself to see and shoot the Equalizer cam system!!! I'll probably go with the Allegiance for hunting, I work 2nd shift and it screws up the weekends for 3D's in the summer[:@] Good luck with your new baby!!!
