Default Bowtech equalizer

Im thinking of upgrading my wifes bow for next year. I was wondering if there is anyone who has shot the equalizer and what did you think about it. Im mainly looking for a bow that is faster than her parker micro pheonix but also one that is fairly forgiving and smooth drawing.

I shoot one with 26" DL and 60#. Sweet shooting. There are previous posts if you do a search.

My wife shoots an Equalizer and I dare you to try and pry it away from her

Her shooting improved over night once she started shooting the Equalizer. For short draw bows there really is No Equal to the Equalizer

The Elite Ice is no longer being manufactured. It has been replaced by the Fire for '08.

Hey MeanV2, what kind of speed is your wife getting with her bow. Arrow weight, poundage and all that to.

I love my Equalizer.

Mine's set at 53.5 lb draw weight. 26.5" draw length. It has the smooth cams (I think that's what they're called). Let-off is at 65% (if that matters?)

I'm shooting a 29" Easton Litespeed. Total arrow weight is 368 grains. I chrono'ed the bow on Sunday and found out I am getting 243 ft per second.
