I order an Energy 32 set at 65 draw wt and 29 length full realtree xtra camo but I love the snow camo look ... I think it would work up in a tree with the sky line background ... I've always shot mid range bows so I'm excited to have top end hunting bow ...

It's not a dual cam bow, it's a binary cam system. A dual cam has two split buss cables with one end hooked to the cam and the other end anchored to the limb. A binary cam system has two control cables. The cams are hooked or "slaved" together. A hybrid cam system has one control cable and a split buss cable. Congrats on your bow. I'm really liking the looks and feel of the Elites.

I didn't know elite had a bandwagon. Congrats I guess. You may be surprised at how big that bandwagon will be before long. They're probably the sweetest shooting bow I've ever shot.

Elite are telling customers 4 to 6 weeks and it's really taking 8 to 10 weeks on an order ... I ordered one thinking 6 weeks but not so .. This concerns me about their customer service ....

Their customer service has always been one of their biggest assets. I have never heard a bad thing about them from anyone. Sometimes where you order the bow has a lot to do with when you get it. Was the order immediately placed or did they hang on to it for a while? You will never know the real truth about that.

I order from Van's in cullman ... He called his rep and put him on speaker phone and we gave him the details .. He told me 4 to 6 weeks but most likely 4 ..
I'm a lefty that's why I post the topic dexterity discrimination ... I think that's the hold up ... They don't WANTA break production for the right hand bows to make a few leftys ...

Could be. I don't know much bout ordering lefty bows. I really didn't notice that you said lefty. I hope you get it soon. I will say that if there is a bow worth waiting a while for it would be an Elite.

Just called. My bow is in! took about 2.5 weeks.
Any recommendations on rest, stabilizer, peep, loop, arrows etc..? Do I need a silencer?
What should I expect them to do on initial setup?
