Default riser length

do you guys think with the longer riser on the vectrix and other parallel limb models, that these bows(in the 33 a to a) is as stable as say the hoyt vtex at 35 in a to a?

I see more guys shooting these small parallel limb bows in 3d tourneys.

Default RE: riser length

I personally feel that way. That is why I think some of the newer bows shoot as well as a longer one. I have a 35 inch darton and a 30 inch bowtech. However the bowtech has a longer riser than the darton and feels pretty much the same in my hand (actually better).

I think the longer riser gives you more weight over all and more weight at the ends which is basically what a longer ATA bow does for you.

The biggest downfall is the increased string angle at full draw.

These only my opinions though and nothing more.
