Summary
Summary review written by our editors.

The Elite Pure offers versatility for shooters who participate in a variety of shooting types. For those shooters with a long draw, or those in the market for a longer axel-to-axel bow, the Pulse may be the bow for them. With fast speeds of up to 330 feet per second, a seven-inch brace height, and an extremely smooth draw, the Elite Pulse has a lot to offer target shooters and hunters alike. The minimal hand shock noticed while shooting bare bow is easily fixed by adding a front mounting stabilizer, which the majority of shooters use anyways. For shooters interested in either a hunting bow or a target bow, there may be better options. However, for those looking to get the best of both worlds, the Elite Pure may be a perfect option.

The Elite Pulse is a speed bow with an extremely smooth draw cycle and rock solid back wall. Typically, archers interested in speed had to compromise with a harsh draw cycle and a short valley. The Pulse does not have either of these issues associated with many speed bows. For shooters interested in a multipurpose bow that can be used in the field and on the course, the Pulse is a wonderful option. Although the bow does have a bit of handshock and noise after the arrow's release, this minor problem can be remedied with string silencers and a front mounting stabilizer. Those looking for a speed bow without the draw cycle of a speed bow may find the Elite Pulse exactly what they are looking for. Read full review...
