What bow is everyone shooting this year?

@Nosaj Going from 28.5” draw to 30” draw is a huge change! I might question this as the release couldn’t change your draw length by 1.5”. You might want to get a second opinion on the correct draw length for you!
I agree that it is a big change. I think it was too short initially and I did not know any better, I am comfortable now with my nose on the string and the v between my index and middle finger behind my jaw.
 
The bow I built broke - uuuugggghhhh....
So I will be shooting an off the shelf black hunter - it's slangin them arrows straight and true so I guess it'll do....
Hopefully it'll knock down a bear and a buck this year
 
Just curious on what everyone is shooting for this year.
I am shooting a Mathews Heli-M. I bought it used and like it a lot so far. This is my first season shooting it.
Well sold my Heli-m the other day, and bought a new Elite Impulse 34 from my bow shop and am glad I made the switch. Like the little longer bow and love the draw cycle and back wall.
 
2010 PSE Bowmadness XS 60 lbs
I had bow madness MC loved that thing. I had a limb go on it and they replaced it with the 3g was a total down grade. I have the bow madness 32 now it’s okay but not the same at that old single cam.
 
My trusty Mathew DXT i bought new back in 2008. I see no reason to ever buy the latest greatest that thing has been a killer for me.
 
Darton DS 3714. Shoots like nothing else I've ever held or shot.

I wish Darton would stage a comeback. Most people don't even know they still make bows. I had a Yukon that shot great. I believe they invented hybrid cams and everyone that used them had to pay up (including Hoyt for the cam and a 1/2).
