“What can I say? It's a beast. Moving from traditional archery and a 43 lb bow to a 210 lb takes some getting used to. Considerable power output, I managed to wreck 2 bolts on the first day (they got embedded 2" in some hard wood). I love the design and safety features (no accidental dry fire; hand guard ...). For novices I recommend consider investing in a crank cocking device unless you have phantastic arm and upper body strength.”
