Bear Resurgence LD Compound Bow

The Bear Resurgence LD is the long-draw specialist of Bear's DHC era, and at a $429.99 launch price it holds up well as a used or closeout buy years after its 2022-2024 run. It reaches a full 32-inch draw while dropping to 25 inches, runs a smooth single cam with a fixed 80 percent let-off, and pairs a forgiving 7-inch brace with machined aluminum limb pockets that most sub-$450 bows skip. It is honestly slower than its hybrid-cam sibling - 273 fps on a hunting arrow against the standard Resurgence's 291 - but that is the single cam doing its job, trading fps for a long, clean pull and a shot that reads around 97 decibels and goes dead in the hand. What I keep coming back to is who it is for: the tall hunter with a 32-inch draw who has spent years settling for bows that run out of adjustment, finally on a bow built around that draw length. It is an excellent bow for the long-draw whitetail and big-game hunter who values a smooth, forgiving shot over raw speed, particularly strong as a steady treestand rig. Shooters who want the widest possible child-to-adult adjustability in a complete kit should also look at the Diamond Edge 320 and the Diamond Infinite Edge Pro... read full review
