    hi, i've been looking for a new compound bow for hunting, something with good adjustable draw length, 60-70 lbs, fast, and probably about 800 australian dollars or less. any help would be appreciated. thanks.

    Australian Dollars, without googling it, what is the exchange rate to US, im guessing it's stronger?

    1 Australian Dollar equals 90 u.s. cents.

    Excellent choice. Have heard some real good reviews from reputable shooters on this bow.

    I shot one off these before, nice and light with good speed. Did I say light?
    I shot it like I shoot my Katera and the thing jumped out of my hand. I had to catch it.
    But my Katera is alot heavier. Get a wrist strap

    Funny thing is that the bowtech dealer couldn't get any carbon knights in for a while so I purchased a bowtech insanity and couldn't be happier.
