Started with the Equinox. Too much bow. Appreciated the power but not the 225 draw weight. Shooting it became a chore (two bad wings). Traded back for Vortex. Believe it or not the 25 lbs draw weight makes a difference. Easier to cock but still has more power than I really need. Make my own Flemish strings. Getting 320 fps with Lazer II that weigh about 410 grains (100 gr brass inserts and 100m gr Slicks, 2" Blazers) This bow is so accurate I don't dare to shoot to the same point twice. I though the first "Robin Hood" was a fluke. My son in law did another on his second shot (he shoot guns a lot) and one more by me has convinced me to spread my arrows around. This bow is topped with a LumiZone.
It's a great bow, although it's trigger isn't as good as my Parker Terminator . It actually release at 4 lbs just seems like more. No doubt holding back 200 lbs makes it seem like that.
Love the simplicity of a recurve; it's. size and weight not so much. This one is a keeper tho.
