dds Report post Posted January 20, 2005 Kaffer62, I just purchased a Reflex Buckskin this past summer. I love it! I am shooting a 28 in draw at 70 lbs with an Easton Axis at ~265 fps. I like that it is moderately priced and is a great bow. Darren Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grizzly Report post Posted January 20, 2005 Mathews is the only way to go. You will never regret spending a little more money to get the best. Try picking up a used one on ebay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bigmo101 Report post Posted February 20, 2005 What you need to look for is a forgiving bow. Long Axle to Axle and a 7 1/4" brace height or above. Before you commit to a certain bow, shoot it. Whether its a Mathews, Bowtech, or Hoyt. Shoot it first, see what feels good to you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kaffer62 Report post Posted March 9, 2005 Well i did it, I bought the 2005 reflex grizzly, with the slam 1/2 cams. this bow shoots awsome, cranks and arrow out very quickly. my 20yard pin and 30yard pin are the same, dead on for both, very flat shooting. Very impressed with this bow. Shooting axis 340's havent got it chrono'ed yet but hopefully will in the near future Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
