Compound Bow Comparator

The Bear Rumor is the new in the Bear lineup for 2014. It is marketed as a high-end, high-performance rig specifically for the ladies. It is smooth, quiet, and accurate, and will please all the lady archers. With a 30 1/4" ATA, 6.5" brace height, and a mere 3.6 pounds, this rig will follow the female archer anywhere she wishes to take it. The rig comes in a Realtree Max1 or Shadow finish and is a very nice looking bow. The pink accents set it apart from the rest. The bow is very strong and offers the shooter a choice of three peak weight limb sets and a dual cam system that is easily adjustable to fit her perfectly. It offers decent speed, based on test shots, but is not going to move at lightning speed. The rig is priced in the middle of the compound bow market, and is about average for pricing of all compound bows, but a little high for bows designed for women. Read full review...

There are very few bows offered in the archery world specifically designed for female shooters, and those marketed toward them are often youth/women models. Female archers will love the fact that the Bliss is designed for females in mind from the axel-to-axel measurement, brace height, slim grip, and draw cycle. Everything about the Bliss screams shootable, and with a $399 price tag, it is hard to find anything wrong with the G5 Quest Bliss. Females interested in getting involved in archery or just wanting an upgrade should look at the Bliss. Read full review...
