I have had this bow for about 6 months now, and shot a lot of arrows in that time,..and the bow has performed perfectly.

From the time it came of of the box, I havent been able to fault the quality, the skin that covers the wood has never showed any sign of lifting, even though I have shot it out in the rain

The only part of the bow that shows the wood is the end 6 inches or so, and I thought in the beginning, that the weak spot would be where the string guides were stuck onto the bow, but there has never been a problem with any part of it,.. the bow is as good now as it ever was

The only problem in the very beginning was putting on the string, the bow is completely curved the `wrong` way before the string is on, so it does take a little work,.... but having said that, I now find that I can string it a lot easier, not because of any weakness in the bow, but I have learnt to string it the way I find it easiest,... it just takes a little practice

I think it is an excellent bow, simple design, very lightweight, no problems with the original string which I am still using, and very comfortable to use
