I will say I shot Mathews for a long time..7 years actually..and this year I went out to shoot all the new 14 model bows I could get my hands on..like always. And this year my shop had picked up elite and had the new energy bows along with the answer and hunter...all 4 are simply amazing pieces of equipment. That being said, the Energy line is honestly in a league of it's own. I now own an Elite E32 and a E35. They are that good. The hype is not at all hype..it's the standard. When you draw them, you will notice the best draw cycle in the industry. The best back wall in the industry and with my E32 I am getting 311 fps at 28" 67# with a 370grn arrow...that's above the ibo raitings that elite has listed. The bows are really something..I would say make the drive and see for yourself..but take your wallet cause you will walk out with one

Smooth draw and like mentioned previously, you will love the back wall. Holding weight for my 65 lb draw is a bit over 8 lbs!

Your draw length will run about a 1/4" long with the stops all the way open. It will be dead on when set at 80% letoff. It will perform better all the way around closer to 80%. The "stops all the way open feel" is cool and will allow you to hold forever. Just keep in mind it is not the optimum place for the bow or your form.

Can't remember the break over but was looking at a tuner friends mapping results and it was pretty telling. Also the most efficiency over all is just under 80% at 29" DL.
What's up Bear?? Long time.
I was more talking about the "funny" things the string likes to do when it is that relaxed and the form break downs that 90% letoff encourages.
The minimal speed gains are an after thought. Chasing 5 FPS is a giant waste to me.
And I do love being 29" and holding 16#ish. Always a good place to be on any bow it seems like.
