Thanks, guys!!

Damian, that doe was taken with a Parker Challenger. I recently upgraded to the Parker Contender XP. It is set at 53#s and I shot it for the first time yesterday. It is s-w-e-e-t!! I'll be using it when we go to Africa!

Kewl! My wife and father both have the Parker Micro Phoenix, my oldest has the hunter mag and my youngest has the buck shot. I ended up getting an ultralite 31, course that was back when I was reping for them and I could get the samples. Great bows, let me know how that XP is it looks interesting.

Congrats again.

There is a BIG difference in the way my old Challenger shoots and the new Contender with the Extreme Parallel limbs. If you haven't shot one with the XP limbs, you've got to try it! If you were a Parker fan before, you will love the change!

I was concerned that it would take me awhile to work up to the 53#s, but I was able to pull it with little to no problem. The draw is smooth with no hand shock. I'm impressed!
