Ok....The Answer officially is a SHOOTER!

[pbuck]

After getting my string twist thing straightened out (my own ignorance) I got her tuned up and shooting well.

Today I got to shoot a full 5 spot round with it at the local indoor range and she shot 300 46X. I had a blast shooting the bow cause it just wanted to pound the X ring. I only dropped 5X in the first 2 ends but got tired and faded in the 2nd half when I started dropping x's out the bottom. Anyway, not bad for basically a hunting set-up and it has to be one of the best shooting bows I've ever owned in my 38 yrs. of shooting. If the pin is anywhere near the X when the release breaks, it's AUT O MATIC!! I love my Z28 but the Answer is catching up FAST! :dance3:

If anyone has any doubts about this bow, trust me, it is a sweet shooting rig!

Now, I want a Tour for a dedicated spot bow. :shooting:

I'm glad you got the string thing figured out.
Nice shooting also. That's a great round with a hunting bow.

I'm very impressed with the bow. It just seems so forgiving like it has an X seeker built in.

Once I blue printed my strings and gave up trying to get the weight to peak at 6 1/2" and just let it end up somewhere below 7" like Dick at Elite said, it worked out fine. I only needed 3 twists in the cables to get max weight up and 1 twist in the string to keep draw right and it peaked at about 6 3/4" so I just left it. I could maybe mess with it a little more but obviously it's shooting great.

[chesnut oak]

I love mine to !!

[ratfart]

I'm in the same boat, I just left well enough alone and started shooting. It's a real pleasure to shoot!

Sent from the device my wife thinks I'm obsessed with............she's just jealous!!

[Hunterpete]

Great to hear. I had fun shooting mine at the Winter Cam Classic this weekend. That is the most shooting I have been able to do in awhile.

Well, if you say it, its golden. I'm going out and buying one today at Gander Mountain. :woohoo:

[callmin]

I was out dialing mine in yesterday also. A little rest adjustment and she was lights out. They are definetly fun to shoot.

Yep, I am the AUTHORITY on bows. What I say can be considered gospel. :kneel:

I have a Gander Mtn. coupon if you want it. :nenner:

Nice shooting. Glad you got it figured out. The answer is a nice shooting bow for sure.

There's an echo on EAF.

Ya, I know right.

:noidea: I'm hard of hearing so I didnt notice any echo??

I'm also hard of smelling.....comes in handy on long roadtrips home from the bar with flatulent buddies :thumb:

[elitehuntermn]

Love my answer. It is very forgiving and a bow you can hold back all day with. Won't be leaving Elite anytime soon.

[P.Smash]

Man I really gotta shoot one.

[old man archer]

Hey Smash don't just say you gotta shoot one , do it! Oh and as you so eloquently put it NUT UP OR SHUT UP!!.............. just couldn't resist this one LOL! OMA

[pbuck]

I got to take her outside today and do a little longer range shooting. There was a decent R to L breeze and I had to "walk" my groups up with my sight elevation cause my bottom pin was down as far as it could go. 70 yds is about all I could squeeze out of it even aiming at the large top dot on the bag.

Here's my 3 groups from 70. I made a little elev. adjustment each time. Decent for a hunting set up I think.

[INGOZI]

Good shooting man! The Answer sure is one incredible bow!

[P.Smash]

Yep, that's a great 70!

You could shoot over 100 yards easy with groups like that. You just need a pin for it. CBE TEK Hunter!!

I'm gonna check that one out. I need 100 yard pin for the Goats :)

I've been looking at those since they were brought up here and I'm just about ready to pull the ol trigger finger on one. I have an HHA on my Z but it's big and bulky. I had a CBE at one time and sold it. :(

I can shoot out to 100 but I'll have to shoot across the road. Good thing it's a dead end. :)

Which do you like better Pete, the Tek-Hunter or the the XL?

[Hunterpete]

New Tek Hunter Hybrid.

[vhunter]

I don't think it's ethical to shoot at game out past about 50 yards or so. To many bad things can happen.

[BlindBuck]

New Tek Hunter Hybrid.

What is that? You got a pick?

[Sean]

What is that? You got a pick?

Yes what is that? I dont see anything on the CBE site about a hybrid.

[Sean]

I see no problem with it if you are 100% confident in your equipment and ability. I've shot a couple animals at 100 yards and they died just the same as if they were 20-30 yards. If you move down south or just here long enough you start learning about Kentucky windage, which is a scientifically proven way of shooting. ;) It gets a bit tricky when winds get above 30mph but it's definently doable.

Look at 1:16 into the video.
Wondering if that's it?

Emailed them few weeks ago for a

That might be it. If so I still prefer the Tek Hunter, just like a regular dovetail. That looks like a Sniper n Tek Hunter smacked together. Can't tell from my phone but the multi pin head appears the same also. Was hoping they would move the pins so they are all on the same plane and add micro adjust. Also would be nice to tap the sight for a light.

They are probably moving shop to New York. You'll probably get your catalog soon.

Shoot my Answer most every day. I have been shooting for 40+ years and it is truly a pleasure to shoot. Quick, quite, accurate & forgiving. A hunters dream!
Shoot it and enjoy

We are not moving Scott/CBE from Kentucky. Lot's of great people down there who have helped grow those brands. Just a little more travel for me:) Bigger deer and more turkeys!!

OK good to hear. Can you provide me a PDF version of the 2012 product line? Long time supporter of CBE would like to see what's changed for this year.

I saw this on AT...I agree about the Tek Hunter looking better but will have to check them out.
