Bow Tech prodigy 50-60 lb (set at 59)
Carbon Express red 250
100 grain rage hypodermic
HHA single pin
296 FPS
My bow is a very comfortable draw. I wish it was a little faster but I haven’t had any issues to this day. Knock on wood. It’s a short axle bow and is not forgiving so you have to be on your game. I may get a longer axle bow in the future.

Easton Bloodline 350
Muzzy hybrids 100gr.

I bought the bow brand new in 2010 and have loved it from day one. I plan to buy a triax this summer. I’m finally ready to commit to a dual cam and the smoothness of the triax shot is unmatched.

I love the bow, shoots great. However, my shoulder does not. Have it for sale--gonna buy a new vertix with some 60 or 65 lb mods in it.

Want a new one, but cant quit this one, it's too accurate and its compact.

Mathews z7extreme 28.5/65
HHA Single Pin
CE Maxima Hunters
Rage 2 blade or Muzzy's

I've had this setup for 6 or 7 years and have really enjoyed it. I don't even catch myself looking for new bows. I've killed a lot of critters with it. I do probably need to replace the strings though.

Elite Impulse 34"
29.5/70 - set right at 70lbs
Bloodsport Evidence
Slick Trick Magnums
Spott Hogg Fast Eddie Single Pin
QAD UltraRest
319 FPS

This is the first Elite I've ever owned. It's not my favorite bow ever. Took forever to get it tuned but now that it is, it shoots well. I was a Mathews guy for 15 years before buying this Elite in 2016. I'll most likely go back to a Mathews in the future
