RE: Anyone seen/read these bow reports before?

I would have liked to see more from elite. Specifically the GT500. I was most impressed with the relatively low vibration of the PSE X-Force HF. Hopefully the 2009 tests will cover more bows. Thanks...

RE: PSE -- holy fast batman

That is like having a 20 inch ... It's impressive, but you can't use most of it. For me, the 82nd is right at the line. It's extreme, but not too hard core to put it in the white 60 times in a row.

RE: Rest Preference

Not necessary, a trained monkey could do that. Granted, it would have to be one of those NASA monkeys. That is one of the benefits of the Limb Driver, it is just so easy to install.

RE: QAD Ultra Rest Question...

That tends to be a problem with blazers due to their high profile design. In that case, I would orient them in a way that they would be able to clear the cables. That is very important.
