Hey swamp dog,Michael Braden could most likely outshoot 99% of the people on this sight 99% of the time with any bow BUT he CHOOSES to shoot the PROELITE for tournaments and an ULTRATEC for hunting.I know the Proelite has the longer xt3000 limbs and I am pretty sure when I was looking at his Ultratec this fall that it had the xt3000 limbs on it too.They both have spirals,he chooses them because the wall makes him more accurate.
Now,if the best in archery are choosing bows that are more forgiving,what the heck do the rest of us need.[:-]
Not trying to point fingers or tell anyone what they need to shoot but when I saw Braden's name brought up,I thought it was funny because I just happened to get a look at what he chooses to hunt with last fall.
I personally am an accuracy freak as opposed to a speed freak and I choose a Protec to shoot targets with but I have an xtec to hunt with.The Protec is twice the shooter than the Xtec but the xtec is a great hunting bow and forgiving to a point.I have extreme confidence in killing deer with it out to 40+ yards but if I want to hit 12 rings at 40 yards I better be shooting the Protec.
