Title: Elite Archery.
Post by: WAPITIHUNTER on October 18, 2009, 07:11:46 PM: Anybody shoot Elite Archery bow. Curious as to what you think of the quality and durability. They are fast (346 fps)with a extremly long brace height for the speed.(7 1/8") I can also get one in a 90 lb draw. :drool:

Post by: xXx Archery on October 18, 2009, 07:45:56 PM: a lot of guys on AT said the speeds are over rated...they say the 2010's will be more true.

Post by: elitehunter on December 27, 2009, 05:48:24 PM: Sorry guys that I have not answered about the Elite limbs. The limbs that we were using at Elite when it was located out here were from Barnesdale, very tough, very consistent. We did not have very many issues at all with the limbs, Barnsdale makes some of the best in the business. If any of you guys are interested in trying any of the new Strother Bows or have any questions, I am working for Strother Archery now and I have several demos for you to try. Give me a shout if interested.
