It is very smooth, quick and lightweight, all things that make this a very shootable rig. With the "ready to hunt" package option this even further makes this system a great value.

While the factory strings might not last long and could be of better quality, this is a high-performing and quiet bow for the money. While it does not produce super fast IBO speeds, its single cam eccentric system delivers a smooth draw cycle... read full review 2007 Bear Truth Brace Height 7 " AtA Length 33 " Draw Length 23 " - 30 " Draw Weight 50 lbs - 70 lbs IBO Speed 310 fps - 314 fps Weight 4.2 lbs Let-Off 80% Manufactured: 2007 Specs were not changedUser rating: out of 2 reviewsBear Element Review The Bottom Line:The Bear Element is a value-tier single-cam hunting bow from 2006-2007 that has earned its reputation the hard way - by still being in the woods. It pairs a durable machined 6061-T6 aluminum riser and Bear's reliable compression-molded quad limbs with a fuss-free single cam, a firm draw stop, and a quiet,... read full review 2007 Bear Element Brace Height 7.75 " AtA Length 32 " Draw Length 24 " - 31 " Draw Weight 40 lbs - 70 lbs IBO Speed 300 fps - 304 fps Weight 4.1 lbs Let-Off 75% Manufactured: 2006 - 2007 Specs changed, see full specs User rating: out of 5 reviewsBear Instinct Review The Bottom Line:To conclude, the Bear Instinct is a very good choice at very reasonable price point. The Instinct is quick, smooth, forgiving and has little to no vibration or hand shock which makes it a very shootable bow. For the bow hunter this will be a very value conscience and reliable choice.

Across 2000 to 2002 it delivered a genuinely fast single-cam hunter, near 303 fps IBO, on a machined-aluminum riser that still comes in under... read full review 2002 Bear Epic Extreme Brace Height 7.5 " AtA Length " Draw Length 28 " - 30 " Draw Weight 60 lbs - 70 lbs IBO Speed 303 fps Weight 3.9 lbs Let-Off Manufactured: 2000 - 2002 Specs were not changedUser rating:no user reviewsBear Epic Review The Bottom Line:The Bear Epic is not a bow you buy for numbers - Bear never published most of them, and the ones that mattered belonged to a different era. It is a bow you appreciate for a specific character: a long, forgiving single-cam platform from 1999 and 2000, built for stability rather than speed or compactness,... read full review 2000 Bear Epic Brace Height " AtA Length " Draw Length " Draw Weight lbs IBO Speed fps Weight lbs Let-Off Manufactured: 1999 - 2000 Specs were not changedUser rating:no user reviewsBear Whitetail II Review The Bottom Line:The Bear Whitetail II is not a bow you buy for performance - it is one you appreciate for what it started and how well it has lasted.
