My go to bow is a MOAB 60in, 55@28. Shooting 29.5in Axis trads with 50gr brass inserts,125gr adapters, and 190 gr meatheads or centaur battle axes. 4x4 fletch with wraps.

I love this setup so much I ordered a plain Jane MOAB with the same specs from Mr Reynolds........and just got it last night! Great hunting setup for me.
