If you are not in a huge hurry, I hope to have my Strothers done and in my hands by mid to late January. I can let you shoot it at that point...

Jesse I don't think you will need a new grip for the Strothers. It is about the best out there IMHO.
What about a PSE OMEN, seems like a pretty sweet bow.
Why the Hoyt spyder serious over the hoyt element or matrix?
Which Strothers would you all recommend.

Also..... It is STROTHER ... Not STROTHERS.... Drop the S... LOL!
I'll wait to shoot it some before making a change. But I have XXL hands and every bow I've ever shot has had big, meaty grips on them. It may be hard for me to get use to something new...
Well ain't you two just something else! lmao
Fuggin Strothers it is then!!!![]()
Not much PSE love on here. Omen can be harsh if not tuned right. Tuned right and its more than manageable. Sometimes there is give and take at 366fps. The vendetta dc is just simply an awesome shooting bow and smooth as heck. best advice go shoot all you can see which fits you best.
Ok thats it, I am just going to shoot every bow on the market.
Now that we have covered bows what realeses to you all like?
I loved my scotts lil goose, but might try something else, even a different style?
I shot Scott for years... definitely some top-notch releases. Couple years ago I made the switch to a handle release and I really like it. Thanks to suggestions from Jesse and Greg here, I went with a Stanislawski Shoot-Off and couldn't be happier.
The Omen is a definitely a bow that I'd like to shoot one of these days. That kind of speed is more than intriguing. But like Beener said, I think the PSE's are kind of ugly too... The skullworks camo is pretty cool, though.
The cool thing about bows is there are so many great companies that are putting out quality bows right now. I have been shooting Hoyts since Nov on 2009...I really like my Maxxis 31 for hunting. I honestly dont see myself getting rid of it anytime in the near future... For some reason the bow just fits me... One thing to keep in mind is that not every bow is gonig to fit you the same.. Being good friends with a guy who owns a bow shop has been a great attribute to my bow shooting. I have shot almost every bow on the market with exception of a Strother. I am very partial to Hoyts, obviously.. THe carbon bows dont do it for me. I went through the "light" bow phase in the past, and all I ended up doing was piling weight on it so I could hold the damn thing steady...
THe vector series bows have been a great shooting bow, as for the the new spiders with the new cam, I havent shot one enoguh to form an opinion. THey seem to have a great valley and are relatively smooth with little to no hand shock... A lot fo guys blow about how smooth their bow is...I honestly could care less...All I am worried about is the performance once the string is let loose...Everything prior to that is a glitch in my memory...
If I were going to shoot a two cam bow without a doubt my choice would be a Bowtech Insanity...These bows are just flat out performers... Like Beener said, they have a lot of leeway with tuning. Bow tech built a hell of a bad reputation for themselves in the past with shitty limbs and terrible customer service... Although, I have not seen to much go wrong with the Insanities...Well that is until they are dry fired...and man do they implode!! To this day, the insanity is the smoothest drawing two cam bow I have ever shot... But like I said earlier, they really doesnt affect my choice on what bows I shoot. Although, an Insanity isnt a bow I would recomend for someone jsut starting out shooting.
As for grips on bows I have never liked mathews because I hate that huge grip... A large grip creates a lot of surface area. The more surface Area you have the more of your hand is touching the grip..Leaving more room for torque. I remove the handles off all my Hoyts.. It does increase the DL by aobut a 1/4-1/2 inch but the results I get in accuracy and tuning are tremendous. THe only bad thing is in the winter trying to bow hunt your hands freezes when you are holding your bow...
Beener- speaking of handles, do you have yours on or off your Burner?
Pulled the 180 and use a SHREWD because of getting the right DL. Have it wrong and the Alpha makes you pay. lol. It will tend to tug if TOO long.
Well ain't you two just something else! lmao
