Man Law--Its Finally Here
 

The Katera finally made it after over a month on order. I didn't chrono is on a regular chrono but the shop had a 3D Interactive shooting room with a 20 yard shot. The range chrono's at 20 yards and I was shooting a 429gr. arrow at 301fps at 20 yards, the shop guy said the program is usally 12-18fps slow. So he thinks we might be getting closer to 312-318 with the 429gr. range arrow with 28" draw. The Kenetic Energy came out to 95.24# according to his calculations.

I put on the Apex Atomic 4 pin sight in APG camo
Throphy ridge stabilizer with the ghetto wrist sling combo
Trophy Taker drop away rest

If I didn't know any better, I'd say that looks JUST LIKE my Vectrix XL.;)
Thatis an 80lb bowsending that heavy arrow at that speed, right?

Yep, 80lb. It really doesn't feel much heavier than my old 70lb. bow. The thing has a nice draw cycle on it.

That is an AWESOME set up! I'll be honest, I couldn't handle it. And I'm not a weak person by any means. Good luck with it though.;) Are they still using the FUSE strings on the Katera also?

I think it's a FUSE string but not sure to be honest. I am planning on shooting it for a couple of months and then getting a new string before season unless this one doesn't stretch on me.

Congrats, I got to try one a couple of weeks ago and I really liked it. The one that I shot was set at 53# and the shop owner said that it chronoed over 320 fps. I'm sure the arrows were closer to 250 grains though.

Sweet looking bow. How's it shoot?

racewayking 06-27-2008 08:21 PM

RE: Man Law--Its Finally Here
 
Thanks everyone. It shoots great, I tried a lot of bows and this one fit me best. Smooth draw, no hand shock and very foregiving even though it has a 6" brace height. I don't buy bows often so I am pretty excited to upgrade after 8 seasons.

My next bow will likely be a Hoyt.

I was actually very interested in THAT bow.

Maybe next pay check I'll go get one, treat myself a bit.

Congrats...Sitck a biggun !!
Thanks DT, by the way---weren't you knocking HOYT a week or two ago and saying they were foreign made until MECHDOC set the record straight????;)

Yep, I went with 80 so I could get enough KE to hunt Giraffe. Now I just gotta get a house with a vaulted entryway so i have a place for a Giraffe shoulder mount.;)

Thanks Crick!! I'll be gunning for ya in 11 months;) Heading out to get a dozen arrows today, hoping to get a lower 400 gr. setup for now with some Blazers on em and then check cameras with MECHDOC so it should be a fun day. We'll be posting some killer pics later today unless Kev's batteries went dead on the cams;)

The Ole PSE is going to a neighbor that can't afford a bow but has afforded us a spot to hunt just North of HNI Headquarters;) The things we do to get spots to hunt, hahahaha.
