APA Mamba Air, 26" draw length, ~70lbs draw weight
APA Twister FC rest
Black Gold Ascent Verdict Assault, 3 pin
Option Archery Quivalizer

Gold Tip Velocity XT, 300 spine with 100gr brass inserts, finished weight ~455gr

When I last fired it through a chronograph, I got about 252fps, which, considering I have a short draw length, I don't think is too shabby.

This is my new favourite thread
Never hunted yet; can’t wait.
Currently practicing with a Quest G5, 70# draw and 29.5” draw. Looking to upgrade but it’s a good practice bow and I love it. Look forward to being able to afford an upgrade.
I also recently bought a recurve through Amazon (I’m not rich) and though it was a very “affordable” bow it meets my current needs. Only a 55# draw but feels nice.

Very curious where you all would recommend shopping, practicing, etc.
I live in parkland county and haven’t been to any local spots in years.

My last bow was Hoyt. I can't justify the expense to get back in to a Hoyt again, although I really.did like that bow.
I just, about a month ago, got my hands on a Diamond Carbon Deploy. Light, pretty much dead in the hands, and quiet.
I have a RipCord Ace, Black Gold Ascent Verdict sight, Scott Sabertooth release, and I'm about to switch to Victory arrows after shooting Easton for years.

Prime Nexus 4
30.75" draw - 60 lbs
MBG 3 pin Ascent Verdict
QAD HDX
8" MicroHex Stabilizer
Tight Spot 5 Arrow
Fletcher .44 Calibre Release
CE Adrenaline 350 spine
125 gr Montec
Total arrow weight is 480 grains

I am still deciding if I am going to run with or without the stabilizer. Some days I am better with it on and some days I am better without it. The bow seems to balance well and feel just fine without the stabilizer on but I am having a hard time wrapping my head around going without it in the field.
