I guess I'd have to go with my 05 old glory because I haven't shot anything else since I bought it
Theres nothing wrong with my bow it shoots a lot better than I can and I just don't see any reason to tempt myself. I am really wanting totry anew arrow rest though.

Jeff,
Sorry I missed this post and I did read your subsequent thread on what you ended up with. I would have suggested the Ross Carnivore 34. I prefer the C31 myself but you know how I love my short bows. The 34 inch model would be a more well-rounded bow if you are planning on using it for more than one archery activity. Shot feel, speed, etc... are practically identical between the two models.
I love the little Ross 31. For me it is a superb hunting bow with a butter-smooth draw cycle, excellent accuracy and truly superb shot feel.

Where you been Frank?
I was getting worried after that little episode you told me about.
My shop is not carrying the Ross so I cannot try one- They do have Diamond and BT of course- They shot them (carnivores) at the show, and def said they were smooth, but didn't feel it would be a good seller in the shop. They also had a issue with BT (business-wise) that rubbed them the wrong way, and they are def not seeing the sales they used to regardless- so all factors combined they are going much more minimal in the BT brands/line this year.
I took the long way around that, but my point- most likely won't even see a Ross
I picked up an AM35 (see my other thread) and it's giving me fits- hopefully I can figure out whether it's me, the bow, or just the combo of the two today.

I try to get back on here as often as I can. My free time is not what it once was. Sadly, I have alot less time to do anything that I truly enjoy these days.
Sorry to hear you are having problems with the AM. I will go check out your other thread and see what the deal is....
