Same exact design as the custom ones just with less flair.  You can order this bow direct through Predator as well.

dink,
I imagine that Ron Pittsley would be very proud to know what a common subject his Predator bows are on this site!  

AS per JRY309 check out their website. Hunter, Custom Classic, and Anniversary edition (recurves) are all great shooters. What you get is dependent upon how much exotic wood commbinations are to you. I've bought three, 2 for me and 1 for my son -- love em, especially the Anniversary.

My father owns a Predator.  I don't shoot recurves as much anymore, but when I picked it up this past weekend it was all 10 rings.  I like it as much as the three Widows I've owned.

Predators are a great bow.  I've had mine since '01 and after shooting/having some other bows, I keep going back to the Predator.  It's the predator for this year also.

Dink, play with a few different ones, because the grips on they do vary quite a bit. I looked for awhile until i found a small gripped one. Most run right around 5" around, this one i picked up only measures 4 3/4" and fits my hand great. Bill

Now all the grips are pretty small and standard. Some of the older ones had a bigger grip and a lower shelf. They are all very similar now. They never made a bad one anyway. I have two and have yet to find anything that draws as smooth or shoots as fast. I'll put it up against any widow out there and its half the price.
No hunter should feel guilty for killing a deer that doesnt meet someone else's expectations.

I own 2, a hunter model and classic. Super bows that I will have probably longer than I'll be able to shoot them  :thumbsup:
