Today was the first time that I had much time to actually shoot my new acquisition. I settled on a 7 1/2" brace height, and about 9/16 on the nocking point height. I shot some of my 35/55 Goldtip trads with 220 grains up front, and my A/D Hammerhead trads with 300 grains up front. She seemed to prefer the A/D's overall, but the Goldtips held their own. I think I'm gonna stick with the A/D's out of this bow.
A few more pictures..........and then the best group that I shot this evening.

cacciatore,
Yes, I shoot three-under. I started out about 1/4" and moved it up until reaching 9/16".
Thanks for all the compliments guys !!!!
I took the "plunge".......again, and gave Norm ANOTHER call. I am now back on the list for another bow. This time it will be an Elite VL with two sets of limbs. I am currently "undecided" about the woods, but have plenty of time to conjur something up.
