RE: Hey Pinwheel
Rangeball-
Nope, just been too busy! I have been playing with them some tho. They are very sweet. Hardly perceptable recoil or handshock on the Machete, Stinger or even the Undertaker, which for the money cannot be beat. (it has all of the attributes of the other bows, same limbs, riser, cams, camo, etc., but doesn' t have the stabilizer bushing or little cool emblem in the riser. For $100 clams less!)
All of them are very well made, have great tolerances, and the speeds are good for solocams. I' ll give you a further report when I get a bit more time, that' s why I really don' t like to get into the " full reports" , simply because I don' t have enough available time anymore to do it correctly and calculate all of the draw force curves, speeds, hysteresis, etc. Maybe I' ll call Emery Loiselle and ask him do one on the Machete, he' s just a spit down the road from me, and he is one of the best techs in the business-- bar none-- been around a long time.
The Diamonds are great bows, and easily compete with other companies' solos IMHO. Great bunch of guys at the factory, too. Can' t go wrong with any of them, even the Stinger shoots great for such a small bow! Good shooting, Pinwheel 12
