Looks ok .. i havent fondled one yet ...it looks like tho Martin has gone away from the 3 peice riser to a 2 peice ... I wasnt fond of the idea of splitting the riser up a few years back to save weight I think was the reasoning behind it.

However Knowing Martins reputation as well as i do .. I would say that it depends upon how much you will shoot it if its worth the money or not. I will bet that they are a great bow Just looking at the specs,it would be a choice between the Firecat and the Moab ... I like the Lower let off option of the MOAB as I find I can hold steadier longer with a lower letoff percentage and the wall would be a little harder with a lower letoff.

I bought one last sept and man is it awsome. Super light super fast and 8 inch groupings at 60 yards. Worth every penny

Still no show! I hear Martin is absolutely swamped and can't keep up with their orders. One shop I talked to says they have bows that have been on order since the begining of January.

Ordering bows right now is usually a big nono in my eyes because the factorys get swamped ...6 week to 2 month wait is pretty common for Hoyts, Martins and Bowtechs ..If you order Bling target colors expect a longer wait

Picked mine up yesterday from Ted at T and F Country Sports.
Thanks Ted, excellent service.
Ran 75 arrows through it tonight @ 20 yards and am very pleased. It was 4 inches high to start with but bang on within minutes.
