I'm a 27.5" draw length as well. I would agree with prior posts that new bows aren't necessarily faster, just smoother and easier tuning.
My hoyt faktor turbo is the same speed as core SR on comfort (435 gr arrow). Performance mod only bumps up 8fps. Not overly significant, but I do like...
I have also only attended the Hoodoo event. 700 shooters is not uncommon, but never feels overcrowded with multiple courses. Great venue for the entire family. Courses are set up to be family friendly vs arrow busters.
Quit drinking in 2008 due to health reasons. Never had an impact on hunting since we always had a dry elk camp. Dad's philosophy was very simple. We don't drink at elk camp, you had all summer to drink somewhere else.
I honestly want a review after shooting these bows for 6 months. Most reviews simply give us the shiny new car sales pitch.
Every new bow shoots well, we already know that. I want to know what rattled loose and tuning issues after strings settle in.
Appreciate the work and timee that goes...
I love the simplicity of tuning with brass HIT 5mm axis. The only system I have seen more durable is black eagle with the footer. They seem to be more durable if deflected/glancing off of targets.
When it comes to hitting hard targets with axis, they simply don't win the battle.
