Any users of the 2002 or 2003 Browning Mirage SX? Comments on performance, speed, forgiveness, quietness, ets...

Bullhound

Could someone possibly provide a link to a site that has performance comparisons charts?

Hi Bullhound, I' ve owned both bows except the 2003 is the Mirage ZX with the twin ( now triple ) idlers on top. If it is a 2002 witht he CyberSX cam it is a great bow. I sold it to a buddy to buy the 2003 model. At 70 lbs. 29" with 29" Gold Tip XT Hunters it is shooting about 280-285 fps. I really liked that bow. The 2003 Mirage ZX was a nice bow as well but wasn' t very fast. It was changed to a triple idler system during the summer and is unchanged in 2004. Only Browning has now down graded the IBO rating to 285 fps which is more inline with what I found on the one I had. At 68 lbs. and 28" it was shooting my 27.5" Gold Tips at 250 fps, but the draw weight felt like 58 lbs. to pull, very smooth draw on that bow just wasn' t fast enough. Hope this helps. I also owned as Adrenaline SX and that bow was awesome. If you don' t mind a twin cam it' s a great bow. I was getting 270 fps at 62 lbs.at 28" with the above Gold Tip arrow.

Thanks for the response Rod. Is the SX cam the same as the Cyber 5? I can' t find any distinction between the two. This bow quiet?

RodS

No they are not the same, they look very similar but the Cyber cam SX has 3" of draw length and the Cyber cam 5 has 5" . Yhe bow is very quiet.
