    Captain. Im 6'3" so the longer ATA is a little better for me. The draw is smoother too.

    I would also choose the Captain. It has a smoother draw and it is just as quiet and shock free as the Admiral. Plus i like the little extra AtA.

    The captain for most (unless your a machine of course) b/c of its longer ATA.

    I have 2 of the 09 Center Pivot bows.

    I chose the Captain and the Sentinel

    I'm not a fan of the super short bows.

    I had a hard time making up my mind but i got the admiral------------------------then got the captain!
    I do think that the captain shoots better for me,but both shoot good.the admiral will be lighter to pack around if you spot and stock
