Default You dress it up!

Ok since I recently ordered my new General and all the Goodies for it, I got slammed a little for the total price. I am not the kind of guy to go cheap if Im gonna spend the money Im gonna buy what I want! So my question to you guys is what would you put on your General if you ordered one and a round about figure on the price! This includes everything you need ...arrows, and all!

Why would you pay 69$ for an STS when you can get one from Dan (MeanV2) for cheaper. He does excellent work and they look 1000 times better.

Don't cheap out.......get the Otimizer Lite ULTRA (.019 with the 2" housing)

I'd go with a Spot Hogg Hogg-it hunter with the 2" .019 wrap style pins myself.......
Probably a Limbdriver as well. (Ripcord? mmmmmmm [:'(]LOL didn't like it)
Stealth 6" Hunter stabilizer
1/4" Tru-Peep (Matches the 2" sight housing perfectly)

For arrows, get the best you can afford from whatever manufacturer you decide on........Easton A/C/C's, Carbon Tech 'Whitetails", Gold Tip Pro-Hunters, Carbon Express Maximas.

Treat yourself to a good new release like a Scott Wildcat and a good properly set up String loop, nock set combo.

Oh and get the "Fast" mods in whatever you draw length is for the General.......you'll pick up a few FPS and IMO they draw nicer.

And what do you need an STS for? The supplied suppressor works fine?
