Pros
Pros
- Light in the hand - owners and used listings point to a sub-4-pound mass, unusually low for a machined-aluminum riser, so it carries easily on long walks and hangs light on a treestand hook
- Quick for its era - the single cam pushed a genuinely fast IBO for a turn-of-the-millennium hunter, flat enough for typical whitetail ranges without a heavy arrow
- Simple and durable - one cam to time, a solid metal riser, and a standard-length AMO string mean these turn up decades later still shootable and cheap to re-serve
- Older-generation let-off - you hold a higher fraction of peak weight at anchor than a modern 80-to-90-percent bow, so setting poundage a notch conservatively and staying conditioned keeps long holds comfortable
- Used-market only and 20-plus years old - condition varies unit to unit, so inspect the limbs, cam, and cables before trusting it in the field; a fresh 86-and-three-quarter-inch AMO string is an inexpensive refresh
