Kyle rips on me every chance he gets, him and a few other baby buckhunters on herewith phallic issues. I was poking a little fun at him for once.
Dopler, ol' buddy. Why do you assume you know me so well?

The ONLY issue, and it's not even an issue really, is that you REALLY REALLY care what other people shoot. Even when it has absolutly NO effect on you.

Now, what is my prize, and lets see your trophy wall.

You won't have any problems with the ATA length. I've taken two does and a buck out of a treestand with no issues. Also taken a turkey and an antelope out ofa Double Bull T2 blind. I didn't notice the extra length as compared to my Allegiance.

Brace height shouldn't be an issue. I haven't had any accuracy issues and the last couple weeks been hunting in a coat and no issues with string slap.

I shoot an 82nd at 60 lbs. I have killed9deer from my ambush saddle, Summit Razor, tent blindsand ladder stands without any issues from long ATA. I never even noticed the length. It's the most accurate bow I have ever shot.

I have 2 BowTech Airborne 82nds. I have shot 2 deer so far this year out of a tree stand and the A to A has not been a problem in any shape, fashion, or form. I actually like the little extra A to A it makes the Bow really stable on target.
Mine is 61#, 28" draw, shooting a 360 grain arrow at 306fps and producing over 72# KE.;)

The 82ndis a fine bow but that brace height is tough, there might be some deals out there on the discontinued 101st as a more forgiving option that will still easily break 300fps.
I shot the 101st and the 82nd side by side a good part of the summer. If you are 28.5" draw or less the Brace Height is a non issue. The 82nd is one of the most accurate bows I've shot in 40 years, as well as hands down the Fastest!!:D

I now owntwo 82nds and the 101st has gone Bye, Bye;)

Well Matthews may be throwing a wrench in everything. Insiders tell me there new one set to release is 360 fps and is one heak of a machine.
