Good luck on your search. Have you tried New Breed? No I haven't. Ike has his gx2 from last year for sale though. Are they sposed to be pretty good? THe worst Ive heard is that they only have moderate speed. Everything else gets good ratings. I heard the draw cycle was very nice. BUT, Ive never shot one as I would have to buy one without shooting it.......I dont like to do that (very often)......lol

New breed makes a nice bow. You just better be sure you like it before you buy it because you will take a beating reselling it ...and plan on sitting on it for a few months before the Beating.
I made an offer on that gx2 that's on AT ...maybe a week or so ago. I offered 450 ..he came back with 475 ...and I didn't take it. I guess I really didn't want it that bad. Anyway he relisted it and it's still for sale.

(The one I had to send back to get shimmed) I don't regret it, but I'd really like to shoot em before I buy em now.

I have a decent bow shop in the same area as my school. I'm gonna head over there this week and try some of their demo bows. They have hoyt, mathews, elite, pse, bowtech, and mission. Wanna pick a bow that really feels good.

There she is. '16 Synergy, 28/65. Getting it all set up and trying to tune it. I think my old 400 spine GT arrows are a bit weak for it. Waiting on my 350 carnivores to show this week. ![](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170212/5ab03996f2a3ba8ba2d607351e42c8bb.jpg) ![](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170212/e74f53d54c978cda419b617dc1b5f83d.jpg)

400's would be very weak but it sure does look good.

Only thing that is weird is after I turned down the limb bolts 1 turn- I noticed I got some hand shock in my trip hand. I loosened the set screws, and turned the limb bolts exactly even with each other. (I always mark where they start).

Strange. Return to original and try again.

Tough to top the Synergy for sure.

No, I can get in and out of my fence without a pass..
