Summary
Summary review written by our editors.

The Strother Vital was introduced to the market in 2014. It was a redesign of the Wrath SHO with a slightly modified riser and new cams. With a 32" ATA, 7" brace height, and 335 fps, this bow gave the shooter a very smooth draw cycle with very minimal vibration and noise (without any noise dampening added), and the capability to "shoot spots" without worry. It is easily adjustable, can be purchased in a number of peak weight limb sets, and can be found online, fully loaded, and not "break the bank." Read full review...

The Bowmadness 32 is a great bow! Unfortunately, with a $599 price tag, and it being sold in a variety of box stores, the 32 may not get the attention it deserves from those interested in a new hunting bow. Granted, there are some missing features shooters could get with a Pro Series bow, but from a performance stand point, PSE did not cut any corners on the Bowmadness 32. Those looking to upgrade to a feature loaded rig will feel great about purchasing the PSE Bowmadness 32 and experiencing what engineered performance feels like. Read full review...
