Hey guys, what do you shoot? Stick and string or "string rifle"? I like them all, but choose to hunt with compounds, and prefer either a much-modified Jennings Speed Star or my new fave, a Martin Fury. Greg

Greg, I have shot an Oneida Eagle for about 4 years now, I love it but it is a pain in the ass to maintain, and it is very heavy! I took it to BC moose hunting last year, ended up taking my bull with a .270 instead never could get close enough to them for bow! Hopefully next time 2003, I will be able to bow shoot one we booked a hunt during the rut!

I also have the onieda strike eagle. I have a old darton back up bow for when the eagle crashes. I am not big enough to shoot the real heavy bows so I like the compounds ability to make me a better. The darton was purchased for its super light construction and the onieda was for speed. I agree with the onieda being heavy.

I shoot a pearson 440 classic. I like them all too! Would love to shoot a stick and string but that takes alot more than just shooting a few times a week.

Those Mathews are nice bows and very fast. I am not a big fan of releases..just another thing to pack along or malfunction. If you don't mind the release they are the way to go. A friend shoots the 3d circuit with one of those bad boys.
