Title: New Pittsley Predator Impact??? Anybody
Post by: suttoman on May 27, 2013, 06:34:00 AM
Like all of us - from time to time - I have sold a couple of bows over the years that I have seriously lamented doing so.  One was my Fox longbow and the other was my Predator Hunter recurve.  I was sick of living in regret so rang the distributor in Canberra today (Australia).

He did not have the Hunter or the Custom in my weight range.  I was disappointed and was about to go when he said he had the new 'Impact'.  I asked to see a picture but he said it is so new it is not even on the huntersniche webpage.  All he could do was explain the details to me.

In faith I went ahead and ordered it without even seeing a picture - am I nuts or what?  He said it looks similiar to the Hunter, but a more defined riser.  Lower brace height so should be even faster.

Oh man - can't wait for the postage to arrive.  Can anybody fill me in on this baby?   A photo would be nice - what it looks like.  How does it compare in speed and stability to the normal Hunter.  If it is anything like my original Hunter (the one I sold), then it will be a keeper.

It is 62inch, R/H, 44# @ 28.

Cheers

Sutto

Hi Sutto,

I recall seeing something like that before. If I'm not wrong, this should be the link.

I hope I got this right! Pardon me if I'm not!
Cheers mate!

Big difference from the other risers. Kind of reminds me of the old Bighorn risers.
