I've got a buddy who has been hunting with a Wolverine since around 1990. Still killing deer with it every year. The Wolverine was actually the second model they made, the Relayer was the first. I'm still using the same Phoenix I've had for the last 10 years. I still think the older Exo series bows are a lot nicer to shoot than the new Matrix or Micro bows.Quote:

The 355 has a 280lbs draw weight. I can't wait to get mine but it will be a bear to load... LOL

Would you make a bet on that. My guess if the 355Quote:

LOL
Never say never I guess.
To bump the Micro up to 380fps that would require approx 293lbs of draw weight. I say good luck on that one not for me... :)
