Sorry jasasker, not much help with the Pearson line. No one around here carries them, and I hardly ever see any advertising or writeups on them in the mags.

I really like my Diamondback, which is last years model; very solid hunting bow. They have pretty simmilar specs but the Pirana has about 2 inches more of brace hgt. with only like 5 or 6 fps speed loss. Should be much less critical than my DB which is great. The riser (which has much less reflex probably almost nuetral)looks to be the main diff between them, and ax to ax is the same. The most impressive thing to me was how quiet the DB is. Makes a great hunting bow IMO and is very accurate within my hunting range. I went 2 for 2 with it last season on deer plus arrowed the same squirrel twice from 20 ft up at 12 yds. Not real well suited for backyard practice out to 50 or more though.
I hope this helps but I wish you could find somewhere to go and try one out before you decide on it. I think Pearson is underrated and you could buy 2 for the price of other high end stuff.

I have a spoiler lite and like it alot it draws real smooth and shoots well its quiet and definatly worth the money it is similar to the model you mention but with slightly longer ata the only thing I did'nt like was the grip but a hand planer and some sand paper took care of that

thanks for the feedback.yes it is a single cam and the 9"brace height is what caught my attention.i also looked at the diamondback and if i had the extra $$ i would be getting it!the piranha will make a good bow for the wife---I HOPE!THANKS AGAIN.
