Walked in the house yesterday with a new tactical Heli-M! I bought a dxt a few years back but went back to the Z-Max I had used for 10 years. I think the Heli-M will finally retire the Z-Max for good.

I just traded my 2010 Destroyer 340 which I loved for a 2011 G5 Prime Shift. Should be here Saturday. Can't wait to start slinging arrows with it.

I stepped up to a Z7E and like it real well. Need to get some more blood on it so I'm gonna head down to 3Fingers in a couple weeks.

I just traded my teenage son to get mine. Told the guy to get him while he's hot. He knows everything right now.

I bit the bullet a couple weeks back and got the 2012 Carbon Element. It is not as fast as I would like, but it is as smooth as butter (quiet too). It was time for a new bow after 9 years.
