Default I did it! Mathews-Out Parker-IN

Well I traded yesterday for a new Parker. I had a Mathews MQ1, and traded for a Parker Ultra Lite 31 and man what a difference. I like the Parker alot better and the weight difference is very noticable. My Mathews was set on 70lb, and was shooting 251 fps. I have my new Parker set on 65lb, and it is shooting 261 fps. Hope to break it in right this coming Sat. WV first day, can't wait.

Man, how heavy an arrow are you shooting?!

My last three passes through a chrono with my MQ-1 were 275, 275, and 276, respectively!

The UL31 is a sweet-lookin' bow, though! Hope you enjoy it; I love those camo'd cams and wheels.

Discipline -- not desire -- determines destiny.

It always feels good to get a new bow. Those short, lightweight bows are sure tempting for stalking.

Good luck with it.

I've been shooting Parker about two years now and have no complaints. They make a quality bow no doubt!

Drop 5 lbs. draw and pick up 10 fps. Can't beat that! It sounds like a smart move to me.

seems a little late to be switching bows right before opener.
