Quinn Stallion

[pseman]

Got my "new to me" Quinn Stallion last night and so before work this morning, I just had to shoot a few arrows through it. Well I grabbed a few scraps of velcro out of the tackle box, put one on the shelf and used two pieces for a strike plate(small piece under larger piece). This had my Beman MFX500 lined up just outside left of my string. Then I got out the bow square and put the nocking point slightly above horizontal, didn't measure, I just "eyeballed it". Checked my brace height(8") and went shooting. Total setup time, about 2 minutes.

Well I couldn't believe how easy this was. After a couple warm up shots, I was shooting some really good groups out to 25yds. Now for me, a relative newbie, good 25yd groups is something to jump about.

I know I have new-bowitis, but my first impression of the Stallion is every bit as good as everything that I have read about this bow. Very smooth draw and the grip is PERFECT. I still have to fine tune and make sure that my broadheads fly true, but I am really excited about my potential with this bow. If you have considered a metal-riser bow, you owe it to yourself to check these out. Great bow at a bargain price.

I plan on taking the bow with me to my parents home this weekend and taking advantage of my dad's airbrush to put a sweet camo job on it. Once the camo is complete, I'll post some pics.

pseman, congratulations on your Quinn Stallion! It's  one of two bows I can shoot, and its less expensive than the Widow. I would like to try the wooden handled Longhorn sometime.

The handle is such a comfortable fit and it is much lighter than I expected. It is 45#@28in which is around 48# at my 29in draw. The Bemans that I shot today are 460gr but I am gonna also set up some lighter weight arrows around 375-400gr just to see how they perform.

I recently picked up a used Quinn XL target bow  (66" 35#@28).  

I have nothing bad to say about Quinn bows.  For the money I think they are some of the best around.   Their quality exceeds their price tag. Their limbs are as smooth as those costing a lot more.

I've been wanting to try the Stallion.

I agree with you MikeD., great bows for the money, quality exceeds price.

I just  received a Christmas card from the Quinns. Great bow and great people!

"less then a Widow". I should say so ! You can buy 3 or 4 Stallions  for what you pay for a Widow.

Quinns are great shooting bows !!!!

I've had mine for a little over a year and I really like it.  Shoots better than many of the higher end recurves I have tried.  Mine has 64 inch limbs and it is very smooth.  Have fun with yours.

Got to shoot the Bemans some more today and I don't know if I need to fool with any lighter arrows. This bow really smokes these arrows(460gr - 9.5gr/lb). Very nice flat trajectory. I'll probably try some lighter ones just to experiment, but certainly don't "need" to.
