Looks like my athens ridge 34 will be the bow for this year. Super smooth draw and holds on target very well. Been getting decent speeds out of it (294-299fps @500grns)

what is your draw length?  What you call "decent"  I call screaming speeds.

Pulling 31" on this rig. I was suprised it was moving pretty good at 28" too.

No pic but I’m shooting a hoyt hyperforce 65lb, 28 inch draw shooting 530 grain Easton full metal jackets tipped with 125 grain RAD non vented three blade broadheads. I use a single pin black gold slider, drop away arrow rest, and a 5 arrow quiver.

2012 Hoyt CRX 32
Easton Axis 340
100g Schwaker mechanical
Trophy Ridge 5 point
Vaportrail Limbdriver arrow rest.
Fuse 3 arrow quiver

I dont like stabilizers, in my opinion the extra weight of the stabilizer makes it harder to hold steady then any benefit of weight balance like they claim .

I love my bow, been with me for so much. Cant get myself to move on from her. Still shoots perfectly and way more accurate then I can hold it.

Do you regularly switch back and forth from 28” draw to 31” draw? If so why?

New (came from the Martin auction) 2015 Martin lithium Ltd. 55-70. Got a orange QAD I just mounted, wanna give a MBG ascent a try. Haven’t decided on a stabilizer, but all the bowjax I plan on getting will be orange, and an orange RAD peep. AAAAND orange d loop and QAD pull cord. I’ll be using the tight spot quiver with an additional mount so I can swap back and forth if I want to use my old (2011 Martin Onza 3) bow

It's the same as my 2018 setup, which is the same as 2017, and 2016, 2015, which I got in 2014  :)

That range looks familiar.... when you have arms like McGuilla Gorilla  those ft per second jump up a bunch!

In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.
