Straight Shooter Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Well, I took the plung and have a Cardiac on the way. It's been a tough decision to retire my CSS Challenger; after hunting with it for the last 8 seasons and taking 21 deer including a P&Y with it. I really couldn't pass the deal up either, brand new in the box for $550.00- 300.00 under a Mathews by the way! LOL I can't wait to get it and set it up for the up and coming season, it stinks I can't shoot it until June because of shoulder and elbow surgery. However, it will be tuned and completely set up ready to shoot when June does arrive. My neighbor having 2 ROSS's was a big selling point for this bow, since I was able to shoot his and by far thety are a smooth and forgiving shooting bow.

Straight Shooter Posted February 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 It should be here Monday or Tuesday, I had it shipped from a pro shop about two hours away. I figured shipping was cheaper than gas. When I get her all dressed up I'll take a picture or two. I''l have to lay the whole family of my bows out and take a picture of that as well. They do keep getting shorter too, I've got two CSS Challengers at 39 ata, a Martin Slayer Extreme at 37 ata and now my Cardiac at 33 ata. I like those avatars, pretty cool! Good luck with your new one as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest thehairlessone! Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 congrats on the bow! rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 I have my new Cardiac already, I'm just waiting on the G5 sight and rest to come in. Apparently they are on back order for another week yet. Ross sure makes a sweet bow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Straight Shooter Posted February 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Yes they do and I can't wait, I'm all ready thinking of trading my Slayer Extreme for another Cardiac. I kind of like to have the same bow for a back up so my form isn't all over the place if I have problem during a hunt. Found an excellent deal on AT for Doinker stablizers at 20.00 a pop on the 4" D2. Now I just got to get a Whisker Biscuit ordered for it.

Straight Shooter Posted February 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 Got it in yesterday and dude does it feel good. I just can't wait to shoot the thing now! I've got about 4 more months to go and I'll still have to work my way up to it starting out with my tournament bow first. I will get some pictures of it on here before then, though.
