    I like mine now, but it was a little more complicated to tune than previous bows.
    I shouldn't say that, but it did take some fiddling.

    I just sold my Faktor about 3 weeks ago to get a Xpedition Xcentric. I sold my Sniper last year to buy the Faktor to deal local after I moved 2 1/2 hours away from closest Obsession dealer. I gave the Faktor a solid two months before I knew I messed up. Shot it this summer and still did not like it near as well as the Sniper. Sniper was same speed but balanced better, drew smoother, better valley, much better backwall, quieter, and deader on the shot. I called Gentry at GT Performance and was talking to him. He told me to come over to shoot some of the new Xpeditions and Obessions and see what I liked. I was blown away with the Xcentric. Quietest and deadest bow on the shot (like my old Sniper). Very smooth draw cycle to me, great valley, and rock solid backwall. On 65 pounds, I am holding a little less than 9 pounds at full draw. Almost 87 percent let off vs 75 with the Hoyt. It just fits me so much better than the Faktor. If speed matters, it is hitting the 352 ibo.

    I take exceptional care of my stuff and had the finish coming off a couple of spots on the limbs and one spot on my riser on my Faktor.

    I shot it alot and almost walked out of the shop with one. The only reason I didnt is the dealer had a left over crx32. It was considerably cheaper and I like the extra brace hight and longer ata. The factor seemed alot smoother though and maybe a little quieter.
