I got this bow on Friday and after about 20 arrows I had it tuned and felt confident enough to take it hunting on Sat.  It isn't picky about arrows at all and I'm able to shoot my Beman 500's and my GT 5575's out of it with great flight out to 25-30yds.  This bow was perfect for my Sat. evening hunt which had me perched in my Summit climber with the bar across the front.  With the short 56" length I was able to manuever and shoot comfortably out of the stand.  The bow balances very well and has exceptional pointability and accuracy for a short risered bow;  I was nocking the center out of my block target at 25yds after just a couple shots.  If I ever get the chance to travel to far away places to hunt hogs, elk, bear, or any other critter then "Gray Ghost" will be taking the trip with me.
