Compound Bow Comparator

The Source bow following is comparable to the Vendetta following of a few years ago. Like the Vendetta, the Source is not a flagship bow, and in fact has arguably two or three more highly sought after bows in the PSE line up above it with the Full Throttle, DNA SP, and perhaps the DNA. With that being said, the Source takes great speed, a longer axel to axel measurement, and a 7-inch brace height and adds a cam system that is easy to pull while maintaining solid performance and winds it up into one reasonably priced package. Shooters will have to look hard to find something wrong with the Source bow, but those wanting a little longer axel to axel model with some extra brace height are sure to love what the Source is all about.

The Hammer is a great looking bow that is fun to shoot and competitively priced at $750. Those shooters interested in a speed bow with a little longer brace height will love the Hammer's EVO platform and smooth draw cycle. With sppeds up to 327 feet per second IBO, tons of cam adjustability, and great looking finish options, shooters should give this Hammer a try. Despite a little handshock, and a slightly heavy overall bare bow weight of 4.2 pounds, the Hammer is a definite contender for shooters wanting a hunting bow that can double as a 3d shooter on the weekends.
