Your dream bow.
 
Alright, lets play pretend here. The bow manufacturer of your choice, would make you a custom bow. However you told them to. What would you ask them to build?
I'd go with...

36 - 37" ata
7.5" brace
mid wrist, thin grip
parellel limbs
hybrid cam
320 fps at my 31" draw.
whisper quiet, with just a tiny bit of a "thump" to it. I do like knowing my bow went off, since I like a surprise release.
MUST be balanced without a stabilizer, and tip slightly forward at the shot.

One that attacts bucks, locates them for me, keeps me company in the stand and always puts the arrow where it needs to be!![8D]

From what I hear,the commander probably doesn't have much thump.

do those bows have that sort of front dip to them on the release without a stabilizer? I may have to go shoot one when i go bow shopping in a few weeks.

RE: Your dream bow.
 
Most of them should not dip untill a stabilizer is added but I have not shot them so I can't say for sure.


There are stabilizers that can have weights added to the front to give you the balance before and after the shot that you like.I actually do this myself but I usually don't have the weight on when I go hunting,it is more for 3-d.

I would go with the Guardian but with more speed. If i could get more speed with my short draw it would be my dream bow, but thats hard to do with a 25.5" draw.
