G5 Prime Alloy Review Ok everyone I had the privilege of giving this Prime a test drive. I am going to give a run through some important specs but not all. I was asked to give this a rip at longer distances to see performance beyond normal shooters yardage. If you are interested in more info please ask with any questions you may have. Tech specs 65# 27.5 draw Speed 284 fps (bio 335) KFPE 66.6 (does that mean its a beasts bow?) HHA single pin with .019 green up pin C-Max drop away rest 30 bee stinger stabilizer Brace height 6 3/4 Let off is adjustable (set at 80%) Maximum blue streak arrow 372g I received it in via FedEx and package was in great condition first of all.

A properly tuned bow and correct form can excel beyond. Yes I know many shoot over 40 but EXCEL is the key word. After the second shot at 50y I new this is a great bow, so good I told the owner I was trading him one of my other bows for the season and expect to see a different bow in the package.
