    Default 2010 GT500 or Answer

    Everyone, I am 6'2" tall with a 30" DL. I shot the Answer today and loved it but then I shot a new leftover GT500 and loved it. The Answer is 33.5 ATA and 7"BH The GT500 is 34.5ATA and a 7 1/8" BH. Which is the better bow. My dealer selld new Answers for $680.00 and I can by a 2010 new leftover for $575.00 or a used 2010 GT500 for $400.00 with stabilizer. WHich is a better way to go??? THanks

    Thank you for the recommendations. The used GT500 sounds like the way to go. Why by a new 2010 and pay more.

    I would think a man of your stature (lol...) that the GT500 would probably suit you well. Good luck with your choice. You can't go wrong either way & that's a good thing !

    I've never shot the Answer but assume it to be a good bow as all Elites are good. I have a 2010 GT500 and that thing is automatic. As long as the used GT is in good shape, I'd go for that save yourself a bunch of money. Even if you get a new string and cable set and tuneup, it will be less than the new leftover one.

    One thing nice about the 2012's is the bull'seye garrantee . If you don't hit the bull'seye everytime you can get your money back . Might just be a rumor though .
