This bow arrived at the shop yesterday... along with 2 other Resurgence that were ordered for customers. (4 string sets for other bows came in too) I had to get that work done before I could play with this one.... I'm sorry if this is lacking details but, it's all I had time for and I'm tired... (it's 11pm as I sit down to type this)
The Bow:
I ordered the bow with 60# limbs and it came factory preset to 29".
My thoughts:
- I got it out of the box and confirmed my thoughts on the color/camo. (Desert Tan/Fred Bear Throwback) I really like it. The finish is as good as anything else at this price point. The bow and limbs are good but there was a little discoloration on the string stop that appears to be from where the shaft was pushed through the the riser.
- I threw on a biscuit, loop and put it in the draw board. The actual draw length is 29 1/8" and measured draw weight is 60.9# on my scale. The ATA measured 32 1/16" and Brace Height was dead on 6 1/2".
- The bow feels light at 4.2# (I couldn't find an advertised mass weight)
- The draw cycle is smooth with a little bit of a dump into the valley.
- The Valley is short but completely shootable as is. I think with a little tinkering, I could improve it a bit.
- Even with a very slight bit of feedback on the shot (I think this will go away with the installation of a damper/stab)
- The rubber grip they added to the Resurgence riser is comfortable and repeatable. I think it's an improvement.
- I shot it through the chronograph with 2 different weight arrows Average speed with a 370gr arrow 270.4 (269/271/271/271/270) and 249.2 (248/249/250/249/250) with a 450gr arrow.
Conclusion:
It's a solid bow for the money! If you're on a budget, it's worth a good look!!!
