I got one a couple months ago. A hunter as well. Had them make me an old school model in solid bubinga. 46@28 60" I'm shooting 2016 aluminums 29.5 with 125 heads. Drawing 27-27.5. They really zip. String really needs a while to stretch out to get to the recommended brace height. I final have a bow that I can say " shoots were you look".

Enjoy...

PS where in NY are you?

Ron and Mike are great people and predator bows are amazing there isn't a bow out there that produces the same end result any better.

Great design. Good looking. Fast. Durable,(dropped mine about 20 feet once, then, a few days later, lowered it out of the tree in the evening and instead of laying flat on the ground it stood up along the tree's trunk. Pumped down with my Lone Wolf and sunk the teeth of the stand right on the lower limb, then stood there with all my weight on it searching for my bow with a flashlight. I think I screamed when I saw where it was!! Sprung right back though, with just a few blemishes)

I just wish they were sponsers here.

I am in NY - not far from Albany, NY!

Thanks for all the great feedback! I'm REALLY looking forward to getting THIS bow!

WOW! It sounds amazing already!

I have both 2016 and 2018's made, XX75, 5" LW helical feathers I shoot....and I shoot about 48# at my draw length due to a slightly bad shoulder...

Scoob,

You gotta use photobucket or some similar site to host the pic. Resize it no wider than 640 or the powers that be will remove it. Photo bucket has a resize tool and you can secure your pics by using the security settings on the site.

Great bows! I had a Hunter model in bubinga a couple of years ago.
I wish I would have never sold it.
You are going to be happy with her, trust me!

I love mine!  It's all I shoot now.  I have never shot better.  Killed my 2 best bucks with it this year.  Rock solid performer.  Congrats!

Bayhunter - must be - I just got it and didn't even know that they were making a gray model - until Mike at Hunter's Nitche told me he was going to be getting one in gray in a couple of days. I hadn't seen any pics of a gray version before myself either and was expecting the brown color version Hunter model...
