RE: Gun trade...how did I do?

Hmmm, I dunno. I shot the 257 a couple times tonight (just in the back yard -- 25, and 40 yards -- not rest, just the balcony rail) and it was really accurate. I consistently hit 2 inches high at...

Browning Tornado...

Another bow question:D... Has anyone tried out the Browning Tornado, and if so what can you tell me about it? I'm really attracted by the 5" drawlength adjustability.:) Thanks!

Reflex?

Can anyone tell me about the Relex bows? Especially draw smoothness and draw adjustment. Is there a reason they're half the price of a Matthews, Bowtec, or Hoyt?:eek:

Thanks!
