RE: browning F5 tornado
Bought One Last Spring And Hunted With It This Past Fall. It Is Compact At 33" And Very Forgiving To Shoot With A 8" Brace Height. It Seems To Be Pretty Durable And Reasonably Priced. However, I Would Recommend Upgrading To A Better String Like Winners Choice Or Zebra. Though It Is A Good Bow, There Is No Comparison Between It And My New Mathews Switchback! The Mathews Is Much Smoother And Quieter. Speeking From Experience, I Think You Would Be Better Off Spending The Additional Upfront Money And Purchasing A Better Quality Bow Like Mathews, BowTech Or Hoyt, Rather Than Wanting To Upgrading Later. If I Remember Correctly The F5 Cost Around $300-$350 Depending On Where You Purchase It. I Purchased My New Mathews Several Weeks Ago For $589.00. However, I Still Have My F5 And It Is In Excellent Condition. I Was Going To Sell It On Ebay. Let Me Know If Your Interested.
