Pros & Cons
Pros
The wood work is truly gorgeous for a bow in this price range. Very great craftsmanship especially for the price. Yes, i know that its a widely debated thing but i lean towards the side that it shouldn't be an issue if used often.
Love this takedown bow. This bow is awesome.
The limbs are a nice semi-matte black. The wood is lighter and less yellow, which compliments the black limbs. The riser is slightly small for my hand but not uncomfortable.
Aesthetically, it's beautiful. The colors look great and the red accent makes it that much better. The feel is amazing, well constructed, beautiful.
It is comfortable to shoot. Bought myself a hay bale, set it up in the back yard and tested shooting from 10 yards. As a left handed shooter it is hard to ever find a bow i feel comfortable shooting.

The stringer string is very handy but the one rubber end that is the small enddoes slip off not sure why but i will wipe it out with some super dry cleaner so that it will not be slick and see if that keeps it fromslipping off when stringing
