Title: Bear Supermag 48
Post by: daniel reynolds on January 16, 2014, 08:55:00 PM
How well does the bow perform? And also I draw about 26 1/2" and I shoot 3 under. I really can shoot my 52" redwing hunter very good but this bow has caught my attention. I just like short bows out of a treestand. Help needed please. Thanks!

Mine is just a bit noisy but I have not tried real hard to quieten it down. At your 26.5" draw you should have no problems at all. Mine is 60# and slings an arrow hard.

I find mine to be a very good performer.   My draw length is 28" and the bow is 45#.   With the right arrow and tuning it is quiet and quick.   It's a good performer out to about 20 yards.

It will certainly work with a 26.5" draw. Basically what they were made for. Can't be sure about three under, but it's a great bow for shorter draw lengths.

At your draw I bet you'll love one!

I have one and it works well for me. Really well actually. With Bow Hush and cat whiskers its very quiet. That odd looking deep V grip had me worried and I did install a Shur-Grip but its not a problem at all. 3 under is the way to go with short bows, no finger pinch. 2 under is even better...

That bow performs at more than 20 yards in the right hands.

Personally, I prefer the 52" Kodiak Magnum, but cannot think of a reason this bow would not work for you.
