Picked one up last September. Have not had a shot at game as of yet but shoots excellent at targets. Plan on hunting with her the up and coming seasons.

I hear there is no stacking at 28 inch. I also hear they are unusually fast.  What did you find regarding these two ?  

What draw weight is yours ?

40 Pounds @ 28 I draw 31" or a little more at least, No stacking, no problems. At my draw the weight is around 47 give or take. I chose 40 lbs. due to my degenerating body and was very pleased with Bears Ausable longbow. Have not put it on a scale as of yet. Yes fast being my first R/D bow I was very surprised.

By the way it seems to prefer heavy arrows but so do I. Perfect match.
