Just out of curiosity I was wanting to get some of yall veteran bow hunters thoughts on the design of this bow? Or if you have had the opportunity to shoot or seen one in person? I'm really just curious.. I have two seasons and two deer under my belt as I new hunter at 28 years old.. Started out with a crossbow and now have the itch to get a compound.. Found this as I was reading.. Thought it was worth discussion just because of how much different it is than majority of bows I've seen.. I guess if it was such a wonderful design there would be more companies doing similar??

damn...

never seen one, never shot one.

if you are just starting out with compounds I do believe I would stay with a lil more traditional design.....


I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

I would like to see one in person; but looking at the specs, I cant picture in my head holding something 18.5 to 20" ATA and trying to pull 70lbs.

Not a good design. It's been tried before. They won't be around long.

This company makes one similar. http://www.libertyarchery.com/


The gearhead looks more finished and thought out.

Its like they took a slingshot and slapped the limbs of a crossbow on it...says it's a Wisconsin based company, but I am surprised one of my cuzs in Coffeville didn't invent it with a "hey yall watch this!" during the first test run haha
