    FL Sanctuary Bibs and an original LW Assault stand, both should arrive Monday. I'm hoping to put both to use wrapping up this year.

    There coming next...one of them is going to be my open county rig.

    I bought a 60 pound Elite Spirit to replace my e32 for my primary whitetail set up.

    Nice. What's your draw length? I assume the cam is more efficient in the upper end of the draw length range like the Hoyt cams. And will you go 31 or 34 for your open country bow?

    I am 28.5, the cam maxes at at 28. but i can get a little more length off it if I try and adjust with the D loop as well. figure it will max at 61-62. I am hoping i get the numbers out of it that i think i will. I tuned one with a 26" draw for a friend it it was sweet...it had me thinking that I should play with one for myself.


    I am not sure if I want the I31 or the I34, i need to mull it over a bit. If the mass weight was a little less then i would take the I34 for sure...but its kind of heavy. I am holding off till after the ATA because I want to see that New Breed is doing, they are the only other company right now that may put out a Binary cam bow that could interest me.

    Yeah that sounds like a great idea.
    Yeah for an open country bow, putting on a lot of miles the I34 might be a little heavy

    Yea, I really want a bare bow weight right at 4 pounds or even a little under as starting point but it isnt a deal breaker.

    The I31 holds great for a short bow

    You're only a 28.5" draw Trials?????
    That's my draw length and I'm quite sure that I am a lot smaller than you are!

    Very typical elite smooth draw. Little hump but not really too bad.

    that is what I needed to hear. I am sure I can adjust the stops a bit and smooth it out after I advance the cams. At 28.5 i should be in sweet spot as far a smoothness...the only issues I have seen were with longer draw lengths.

    I am going to start looking for one with 65# limbs. i already built a a special moose arrow!! now i need the bow..
