Nice looking setup. Hopefully I'll be seeing it in person soon.

Thanks, and I'm sure you will. Just got some nice new targets for the house too. BullDog traget, Glen Del Buck, Rinehart Ball and I have a Morrell's Bonecollector Broadhead. The Yellow Jacket bag target didn't hold up too well.

Bow is perfect nice smooth draw cycle, very quite and dead in the hand. Now I just need to fix the hack shooting it.

Nice set-up. I'm sure you'll love this bow OP. It's extremely forgiving and easy to draw.

Like a laser beam.

I bought one back in March (last year's 2010 model) but have only been tinkering with it in the garage since then, paper tuning, etc. I took it out to the range for the first time today after installing and tuning a Spot Hogg Whammy rest on it. I'm a mediocre shooter at best, but this bow has shrunk my groups more than half the first time out. I have it set on a comfy 64 lbs and it's as easy as drawing a kid's bow. It's also very quiet with the Whammy rest. I have a Trophy Ridge Hitman-5 sight on it but I'm probably going to have to get another sight because I can't get the pins close enough. It's shooting a 395 gr. arrow at 300 fps based on the chrony.

Here we are at 30 yards.



Oh, what's that I see?



Neato!

BowXperts/Brians Archery!!!!
Well my 2011 Vendetta XL was just picked up today after Seth through his "works" package at the bow.

Specs are as follows:
27" Draw Length
65# Weight
27" Carbon Express Mach 5's W/2" Blazers(373 Grains)
278 FPS

Service was great and timely and Seth spotted a blemish on the lower cam, so a quick call to PSE had a new cam covered under warranty. The harness turned out great(452X). My bow was way out of time with the bottom cam forward almost 1/2 an inch (original shop purchased from must not really be as detail orientented). Seth showed me the three holes from paper tunning and the bow made perfect bullet holes at 6, 15 and 20 feet.

Spent some time trying out sabilizers and a Smooth Stability is what ended up on my bow.

That set up looks sweet! They are good people @ Brians from what I've seen so far.
