   Bow riser, limbs and cams seem very solid. The accessories are ok. There are some set up issues. Bow was not tuned well out of the box, top cam hit string well before bottom cam and draw adjustment did not change this. D- loop was loose and started to move up and down after first shot. Allen wrench included broke when trying to take bow draw weight back down before sending back to the seller which is odd (never had that happen before). Guide rod was loose. Overall I think if it were taken to a bow shop and tuned and worked on it would be a good bow but I just was looking for a back up and don’t want to spend the time and money to make these adjustments. Once these adjustments are made I think this bow would last a long time. Came with 452x string which is good stuff. If I was keeping it the allen wrench wouldn’t matter because I would keep it cranked at 70 but the returned bow will have to have a bow tech press the bow to get that piece out of the allen wrench hole because I don’t have a press. I will see if they hold true to their 30 day risk free return policy and will update afterwards regarding customer service.
   **UPDATE** They hold true to their word and a full refund was issued. Giving this bow a try is not a bad idea, with the quality and customer service.

   I’ve never shot a compound bow before. I wanted to get one for me and my boys to use for hunting. I had no idea what to look for and began looking for the cheapest thing I could find. I found most of the cheap ones would probably work, but needed accessories. This bow had everything with it that I would need on a bow, except a quiver and release. We’ve been shooting it for two weeks now and it has been powerful, accurate, and rugged. Granted, there are some better quality accessories (sight, arrow rest, stabilizer, etc) out there (I have since learned), but the limbs, cams, and strings are pretty solid. I think this bow will do everything we need it to in the years to come.

   Three months later….I have a few complaints: There is no web presence or customer service that I can find for this company. I’ve had to do some major overhauls and could have really used some factory support. In trying to achieve the 30 lb draw weight for my kids, the string jumped the cam and the metal buss cable slider bar popped out. I had to rely on pictures of the bow from Amazon to see how it was supposed to go back together. Again, I could find no websites or anything of this company. I had to buy a portable bow press to get the string and buss cables back on. I used glue to keep the buss cable slider bar from popping out. Since then, I’ve not been able to get the bow accurate again.
   I just bought a new drop down arrow rest and this seems to have solved some consistency problems. The biscuit rest was just not working out. I also ordered another sight. I also had to replace the peep sight tubing. So, bottom line, the limbs and cams are pretty solid. However, by the end of the year, I’ll probably have replaced everything else on this bow.
