I' m not familiar with that bow, but I don' t see why it wouldn' t work. Stick around, the experts will be answering soon.

Great selection for a young hunter. Although High Country does have a new set up where you can adjust for differnt weight ranges, draw lenghts, and everything. I believe if you want a one bow to handle him growing up that is adjustable, you should look into that. It' s like a Max Cam or something. It' s in the new catalog. But that bow should definetly handle what your son is looking for. Should be quick and smooth to shoot. But like I said, if you got the extra cash, you can look into the the new High Country with the fully adjustable cam for everything.

First off thanks Highcountry for your response and knowledge of these type bows. Went today to my local club/dealer and looked at a used one and was sold on the bow. I ordered a brand new Micro quad, the additional cam and all the sights, balancer and the little gotsa have stuff we all like.

My dealer made me a great deal and I am sure my son will love this bow. Hehe I am not sure who will be more excited Xmas morning, Me seeing his face when he opens it up or him when he see' s the bow.

Once again Thanks for the info,
Dave
