Alright guys first product review so don't beat me up too bad. The PSE Sinister is one of the new bows that came out in the 2013 lineup. It is one of the shortest axle to axle length bows that PSE has to offer but still shoots a whopping 327 fps IBO speed. Comes in a few different color schemes and poundage models maxing out at 70 lbs. For the 70 lb model it cost right around $610 for the ready to shoot package which includes a peep installed, a PSE Wrist Sling, a Mongoose quiver, PSE 3 pin sight and a Whisker Biscuit. I bought mine just over a month ago and have been spending roughly an hour to two hours each day shooting it. In my experience with it, it was extremely easy to tune out right out of the box. At first when I started shooting it I thought the draw cycle was a little rough, especially when I got close to the letoff but over time I don't know if I just got used to it or if I broke it in but it is extremely smooth now. One thing I did notice is it is not as nearly forgiving as a longer axle to axle bow like the Brute X or Stinger 3G but is still a little forgiving. There is a little vibration in the shot but that's to be expected when you're putting out that speed with such a tiny bow. Altogether this is a great bow and would give it a 7 out of 10
Man i knew it was short but that's tiny! I switched from the 3G to the Drive and it was a crazy difference. Have you had it Chrono'd?
I have not unfortunately. Used one of the calculators online (don't know how accurate they are) but with my setup I should be shooting around 282. No way to tell if that's what's actually happening until I chrono it though.
I think a great review over all, the actual speed and arrow setup would be a sweet addition to this review. Nice job though!
