PCH question
« on: September 11, 2010, 02:35:00 AM »
Hey guys,

I know they have not been out long, but is there anyone shooting a 56 inch Widow PCH with a 29 inch draw???

I know that stresses the limb more and makes the release more critical, but I have hunted with the 56 inch CM Firebird before (basically the same bow geometry) and loved it.

For me the hunting aspect (maneuverability in the woods) is very important.

Let me know what you think.

I shoot a 58" PCHX with a 30.5" draw and it performs very well. I would put it past the Widow boys>

I shot a 54" at a little over 29", but didn't care for the feel.  56" felt fine. I now draw over 29 1/2" and plan to go with a 58".  Search the forum.  I know someone not too long ago went to the shop and shot the 56" and 58". I think his draw was 29" or a hair more.  He liked the 56" and got it.  It didn't seem to be a concern with BW that he got one that length.

Guess maybe I'll just do the test drive when I'm ready.  Stuck right now between a cheaper 58 inch ILF bow or the 56-58 inch PCH.

Anyone else shoot the PCH with a 29 inch draw?

I shoot both a pchx 51 at 28 and a high end ilf the PCH is right there with the ilf. It shoots where your looking. Only drawback it is not as quiet.
