Do these bows pull the weight that they are marked.I would like to hear from you who have scaled them.
Thanks,Dave

Most people say that, but because the gamemaster has a small riser if you draw your 28" arrow to the shelf edge you are over drawing.AMO is 26 1/4 from pivot point of grip.If you draw them to AMO they are pretty close.

I have 1 now that I'm shooting, and 1 I sold to a friend.  Both bows weighted 4# more than marked. Mesured to the front of the shelf @28".

Mine is a 60#@28 (that I got from Deadsmple at Whittingham, thanks again Vaughn ) and it weighs 57# on my scale. Great shooting bow once you tweak things and get past the Buck Rogers looks.

I'd have to agree with Cajunbowhntr, they are pretty close AMO. I draw just shy of 30" and the Gamemaster that Mahantango got from me comes out at 64# at my draw.

Hey Paul it's good to see you posting here. I'm so glad I was able to find a "Buck Rogers" fan to take that thing off my hands. Good luck this whitetail season. See you soon Brother!

Mine is right on, and I have had 2 sets of limbs 50# was 50# and the 45# are 45# .
