Im looking into the Martin Slayer X....it will be used for 3d/indoor spots. Are heir any oher bows you guys suggest me looking into?

Also should i be looking to go t a 50/60 or 70 pound setup?

I pull 72 now with ease so any suggestions are welcome.

If you are thinking of shooting FITA indoor it will need to be 60lbs.

As for bow, look at the Mathews Apex 7, Bowtech Old Glory and Allegiance, Pearson GenII, diamond liberty, hoyt ultratec

Bowtech Constitution 40 ATA almost 9" BH, zero shock, fast for a long bow

I own the Slayer Extreme SE, Nitrous-X . I really love it for 3D and would highly recommend it for that. It however would not do as well as my Scepters on indoors.

The problem is the Slayer hold well and has very good speed, but it is not as forgiving and this is going to cost you a few points in the duration of indoors. Perhaps, you can handle it better than I can. I am not saying it couldn't do very well for indoors, it just takes a lot more concentration to get a good release everytime, etc.

I have been trying to decided on a possible replacement for the Scepter III's. But, I really haven't found anything which I truely think is better. I might look at the RazorX Magnum with Nitrous-X cams. I would try to get the biggest cam possible and use a mini-module on it. This produces the smoothest draw and possible generates a little more arrow speed.

As far as poundage, I would go with probably a 60 to 65# peak limbs. FITA events require less that 60 lbs. I would usually shoot indoors at about 50 lbs or less. Remeember, Martin's have a 15 lb. adjustment range and you can order about any peak you want.

Bowtech Constitution,very forgiving and quite fast bow. Works well for indoor or 3D. Actually shoots faster than the OG.

If you've got the money buy two.

I've shot spots for 30 years and don't think you can have the perfect bow that will do both to a high level. 3D you want the speed and high poundage to shoot flat. Spots you want a lower bow weight without the speed. I shoot about 50# for spots and that's nice if you want to shoot 100 arrows a session. 20 yards all the time target never changes. Forgiveness is more important for either sport.

Razor X sounds sweet. Fairly long, and a 9" BH. Still seeing 300fps IBO. I may have to see if theres one around i can shoot.

Dont count out the Bullet-X

I really like the Apex , bought an Apex 7 , sold it and bought another Apex , there are several out there I would love to try but the Apex is just one of those bows that I love to shoot.
