    For a non-carbon bow, that thing is sick looking (in a good way). I love the looks of those. Congrats!

    I'd say congrats, but knowing your track record for not keeping bows, you probably already sold it :)

    First off thats a killer bow you just bought. I have a fuse carbon blade. It seems to work just fine. The technology behind bows these days you could almost screw a brick on the front and they would be dead in your hand. I do however like the way you can manipulate the blade with the set screw.

    Montana Black Gold ascent with 6" dovetail and I love it, my favorite site I've ever used.

    For stabilizer I'm using a B-Stinger, seems fine. The guy who owns the bow shop I go to has the bstinger extreme, it's pretty awesome.

    I just bought a 10" carbon blade for my carbon element about a month ago. I absolutely love it. It balances out my bow well and eliminates a lot of hand/bow vibration at the shot. It's my favourite stab I've had to date on any of my bows. A bit pricey but worth it in my opinion, plus they look pretty cool to me. Give it a try, I recommend it.

    I may need to check that out, thanks. Did you pick it up local or online? If online who'd you go with?

    Looks good. Get to shoot it much yet? I wasn't sure since you are sight shopping still.

    Shooting everyday at about 15 feet in the basement. Tested it through the chrono with a couple different arrows but haven't taken it outside yet.
