    I love it! It's unbelievably smooth and was so easy to tune. I've got another on the way I like it so much, haha. It's a 65 lber. In Stormy Natural with the orange cams. If I decide to get rid of one after the other gets here I'll let you know.

    Haha. It'll wear out before the bow. I'll probably wear out before either.

    Seriously thought about getting one of these for a finger bow.

    I wanted a 7 pin site because I practice right now out to 70 yards and once I find a place I can get out further out to 80 yards I'll set in my 80 yard pin now I would never take a real life shot at that distance at a whitetail too many variables and very small chance of a successful and clean kill. I'm confident in taking a real life shot out to about 50 yards my longest shot to date was 43 yards and the deer never made it to the woodline only about 50 yards from where she was standing. I work hard to shoot tight groups at long distances because if you practice and have tight groups ( 5 inch circle with 6 arrows ) at 50-70 yards it makes a 10-30 yard shot a short easy chip shot I can hit golf tees at 30 yards on a regular basis without really trying all that hard. I have lived in Colorado and still have friends that live there and hunt there and also in Montana and I plan to hunt out there at some point and most of them practice out beyond 80 yards on a regular basis. I guess it really comes down to having the option for longer shots but it really makes closer shots way easier when you're used to shooting long distances. I hope this answered you question

    Having learned as a finger shooter, it makes it a less dramatic outing if you forget your release...

    Which model is that? How long is it? Obviously no axles.

    That's the screaming eagle. I think the string is about 47" on that bow, which puts it's length around 48".

    The timing wheels are the axles and the cams are very different. Probably 2' axle to axle if you count the timing wheels.

    Below is my H250, that one of my son's is shooting, it's about 2" longer.

    I would love being able to have a simple string change without a full retune again. I used to change a $6.00 string every year. I would set the new one up exactly like the old one, then keep my old one for a spare. With the double tear drop cables it was a simple matter to swap strings.

    I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

    Much thanks. I got my first elk, probably the ugliest rack I've ever seen but it's a start. Good luck to you this year.
