Just getting into archery this year to hunt. I hunt general gun, but wanted to try with a compound bow. I have been looking at bow's for a couple of months now. My cousin bought the instinct and I fell in love with it. I guess it was just instinct! no pun intended. But I was checking out the truth model and I am wondering if it's worth the extra money for the sealed cam bearings and it's faster fps. Any advise or experience on this subject would be appreciated.

Even though BowTech kicks butt.[;)][:D]
And again like buckey said, welcome to the addiction! [;)]
Went after work and played with some compound bows. The shop I went to had alot of animals mounted hanging on the walls. SO IT GAVE ME AN IDEA!!! I rented a couple of bows and I snuck them in my truck and went into lion country safari. I tried out a couple differant bows and took out a rhino with one shot, WITH THE BOWTECH! some tourists got some great picture's of the shot. After I was arrested, I had time to reflect and I decided on a bow. The Black Ice by bowtech. Just kidding about the zoo!
Add another BowTech shooter! I went to Lion Country Safari about 10 years ago with the wife and son. It was better the going to Disney as far as I was concerned. Less people. And you don't see 2 ostriches doing it at Disney.[;)]
