RE: parker ez draw
rochelle.
I haven' t had an opportunity to shoot or even hold the bow in my hands but reading about it,I have been really wanting to check it out.I like the cam design and brace BUT I hate high reflex bows.IMO this takes away from the shootability of the bow.Basically,imo this reflex nullifies the advantage of the high brace.It is a necessary evil to get any speed at all out of the bows that are of this design.
I do think it will be somewhat forgiving and shootable bow due to the fact that the brace is so high and the cam is so forgiving.

RE: parker ez draw
I put a few arrows through one early this summer while on a vacay. Like the Mathews Icon it' s SUPA-smooth to draw. If you want some speed, this is not the bow to get 
, it was definitely lobbing even light carbons dowbn-range (obviously the bow is not designed for speed though). VERY quiet. Like T-fox stated the riser is very reflexed (and short) and it was a little " torquey" . A little bit of vibe and recoil even w/ Limbsavers, but nothing serious. Seemed to shoot pretty accurately as long as I was cautious about the torque. The one I shot felt like it had 80% letoff. I think it would be much less torquey w/ 65%. I' d look into seeing if they make 65% mods for it.
