RE: New bow time, need help.
I know this isn't on your list, but if you can get ahold of a CP Oneida Black Eagle, I think you'll love it. The draw on it is silky smooth, smoother than a Bowtech. The let-off has no hump to it, it gradually lets off, not like a wheely bow that lets off an inch from your face. It has zero handshock and recoil. Its a bit noisy to some poeple, but with the proper stuff it is one of the quiets bows out there. The brace height, depending on your draw length is from 6"-7 3/4". Its a litte long to at 43-46 tip to tip. IBO Speed is 298, AMO is 242.You like the Bowtechs Binary cam design? Oneida's have had these since '82. These bows are so easy to work on, you can totally disassemble without a bow press, and using a couple allen wrenchs and a screwdriver. Yes, you've probly heard of them being low quality, that was in the old days when Roger Loomis had the company, now that Claude Pollington has bought the company the quality is top-notch. Since you work at a proshop, CPO will probly send you a bow to try out if you call them. And customer service is second to none. I ordered some cables and new cams from them for my 9 YEAR OLD bow, and within a week I had all the parts I needed. If I didnt know what I was doing, all I had to do was call them up and they would explain to me step by step what to do.
Sorry for the long post, I hope you read it, because if you try it out, you will fall in love.
