HAS ANYONE SHOT THE NEW FRED BEAR SQ32? WHAT IS YOUR OPINION OF THE BOW?

I can't say that I have but I did have the opportunity to check one out when I was at the local Cabelas retail store a week or two ago. Nice little bow. I would love to eventually shoot it to see how it compares to others in the same size and price range. Maybe next week.

I saw it there too. It is a nice looking bow for short bow enthusiasts. Seems to draw pretty smooth. I would think the brain trust at NAAG could have come up with a bit more original name, though.[&:]

Come on now Jeff...what are you talking about? I can't remember a single company that had the name SQ2...uhh, I mean MQ32....uhh, actually SQ32 as part of their lineup.

IL,
I have shot the SQ32 and in fact have one. I think the bow shoots very well. It is quite, has a smooth draw, and is pretty much shock free. I have shot one right out of the box as well as one that was set with stabilizer, sight, etc. They both shot very well.
I think Bear (Escalade, if you will) has really got a good thing with this one. If you have a chance to get one in your hand and shoot it, I would definetly do so.

I would agree and offer that it is just a matter of folks changing their opinions a bit of what constitutes a "quality bow". Another company that I believe is in the same boat is Browning. The Illusion that they have out this year is definitely up there in terms of quality, design and performance.

I agree PAB. I talk to a lot of people around the central PA area and all I hear is Mathews and Hoyt, but for the $, Bear and Jennings put up a great product. I think things could swing if people give them a chance.
They have been making a lot of changes, not just in Bows, but in the way they handle Customer Service, Dealers, Etc. With those changes things have been looking up for them. I hope it continues (I think it will).
