    A friend of mine is the bow tech at a local shop and she called me about a bow they took on a trade in. She knew I was going to start looking for a new bow after this season. I hadn't even looked at the elite's because they were out of my price range but she gave me a price i just couldn't refuse fully loaded minus the sight (i just put a new one on my bow this fall so i just swapped them).

    Its a 2015 elite synergy. It is one smooth shootin bow! It's alot taller than my old bow (33" Axle to axle) but it should help me with shooting tighter groups. Lookin forward to puttin some late season venison in the freezer.

    Great bow company and their product is awesome. I've got a few friends that shoot them an they love the bows. I shot one a few years ago at a trade show and was impressed. You will like it

    The technology in bow development these days is amazing. Sometimes i think it's a little too much. I've been shooting a High Country tssr for 13yrs and it's put down plenty of deer. I just decided it was time for an upgrade.

    I finished sighting in today after a quick session yesterday. I never thought id be shooting out to 60yds but im getting 4" groups at 60! This bow is way more forgiving than my old one.

    I have the same bow and love it, I would take a shot out to 45 yards comfortably (for me)
