Great bows! I have two, no photos right now though.
My favorite is the classic with the black phenolic riser.

Love the way mine shoots.  I've had fits getting it as quiet as I'd like...but I doubt it's the bows fault as I'm shooting a little less than 10gpp.

Very smooth draw...the right weight-in-hand...and the grip is something you'll either love or hate, I love it.

Here's one I've always kicked myself for getting rid of. Great bows... very smooth, fast, and they shoot where you look.

My favorite bow, the limbs pull like butter, super smooth and is fast. I just ordered another one and it should be here in a month!

I have had the pleasure to shoot with Rons son Miles and shoot his bow as well. His sons bow has an all micarta riser man that thing was sweet.

Just bought an Hunter and love it. 46 @ 28 I shoot 27.5 shooting 2016s and they really zip. One of the best bows I have ever shot! Got an old school version in solid bubinga riser.

Mike was fantastic to deal with

I had one for a couple of years.  I had a problem with getting it quit too but somebody at a trad shoot told me to up my brace and it made a real difference.  It shot great.  Fast but...After I got it my first shot laid the top of my hand open from the low shelf but switching to a left wing fixed that problem.  I never could find a consistant hold on the grip.  It didn't fit my hands at all.  It got down to me actually hating the handle.  Not the bows fault at all.  I'm not dogging Predator.  I know now how to reshape a handle but at the time I worried I would ruin it.  I traded it off and have never felt bad at all.

Mike and Marley... it was tulipwood in the riser, with clear glass over tulipwood on the back of the limbs (black glass on belly).
