    Looked at pse dna today really liked the draw cycle , smooth and rock solid backwall . I didnt get to shoot it . Im having a little trouble in my shoulder and was thinking about going to a 60lb draw weight ,with the dna i wouldnt loose too much speed . Do any of you have any experience with the dna good or bad ,looking for helpful info .

    Last spring I bought one. Shot it alot and just couldnt be as consistent as I was before. Im sure I do not have perfect form but with the real short brace height it made it hard for me to shoot. Did notice that it was jumpy at full draw. 3 months later I had to make the switch to hoyt. Bought the spyder 30, way smoother drawing, solid back wall, and I was back on point with accuracy.

    I would look at the new DNA SP. I have shot both and the SP is much smoother to me. You won't lose much of any speed especially shooting the correct arrow for a 60lb bow. I love PSE's..lol. Now as far as Brace height...I can't tell any difference between a 6" or a 7"...maybe it's just me. I prefer one closer to 6"

    x2, try the DNA SP (soft pull).... actually, if you look at the specs for the new Premonition as well, there's really not much difference. The Premonition is an inch shorter, 1/4 inch brace height longer (more forgiving) and 8 fps slower. The DNA SP goes to a 31.5 inch draw, whereas the Premonition only goes to 30". After seeing the only differences, the Premonition is $200 cheaper. I have lastyears Revenge... pretty much the same bow, and I love mine. Its smooth and really compares to a bow with a longer ATA.

    I shot the Premonition and really like the new cams. It's a 344 IBO and the DNA SP is a 345. If that matters to you. They both have the same Cams as well.

    The DNA SP will only go to 30" draw, just like the Premonition. If i were to get one of the new PSEs i would buy a Source. 7"ish brace, 33" ata, good weight, SP cams with the limb draw stop... Its a very nice bow. Im not a speed guy though, id choose that bow because its smooth, solid, and forgiving. Not because its fast
