    Since you have a GTO - why not try the Athens. I hear from several people they are a real sleeper. If you don't like it you will be able to find someone to trade you for another Elite and probably even a Z...

    You already have two Elites even know you can never have too many bows is there a need in having 2 z28? I have been thinking about a Athens myself buying one direct or from a dealer I contacted them they are real nice guys

    Z28 snow camo thats what I will have coming. I noticed you don't have a 2010 model they are smoother in my opinion.

    From what I've heard, the bows are so much alike that you're splitting hairs in comparison. I have heard that the Athens grip takes some getting used to. It's more vertical than Elites. I'd rather trade for something nothing like the bow I had, if I was gonna trade.

    i am an athens shooter and have owned both the z28 and the 32 at the same time. i know i'm suppose to promote athens but truthfully, trading the z for a 32 is a z with a hair more speed with less bh. there really is not that much of a difference. now if he wanted to trade you an exceed for the z, now that's a world of difference. the z is an awesome bow as is the athens but they really are so much alike that it really wouldn't be a trade.

    I can tell you that a 2008.5 Z-28 with the 2010 cams is a shooter!

    Do you have Z cams or 2010 Rev cams on it?
