Hmmmmm....I'd call Hunters Friend and ask them direct. I just looked on Reflex's website and looked up their tuning charts. The "Slam & 1/2" cam is in 1" increments for draw length.

I shoot a reflex and my buddy shoots a hoyt a lot of things are similiar except for the limbs. Reflex is the way to go if you dont got deep pockets.

So I went to the pro shop that sold hoyt's and reflex. A lot of the hoyts were out of my price range. I shot some of the more affordable hoyts (lazertec and powertec), and then shot the reflex super slam. I actually ended up liking the reflex much better than the hoyts. It felt better to shoot, it had less vibration, and shot very fast. I can't tell you how impressed I was with the super slam. End of story, I ended up taking it home and i'm very happy with it.

Same bows. Just released different years and a little different limbs.

I see you are now shooting a reflex. I assume this is the one you replaced your blown up bow with? Not a bad choice at all. Now if you could getdown to Texasyou could give her a trie on a hog.

That's right.... Here is my baby:

This bow is simply AMAZING!!! I can't believe how well it feels, draws, shoots, etc... I really truely feel I have a $600 Hoyt, but yet I paid $349 for it and it happens to say "Reflex Highlander" instead of "Hoyt UltraSport".

I would LOVE TO try hunting hogs with it. That would be sweet! [8D]

. I would take the money you save with the Reflex and buy good sights, rests and arrows with it.
I agree with TerryM
