Same rest, sights, quiver, etc. With the same draw weight. Shooting the same arrows, it's 35 fps faster, much quieter, has no vibration and weighs a lot less. I know it will be a lot more comfortable to carry when it gets cold. I can't wait to hunt with it . Technology has come a long way in 13 years. I love my old bow and its there if I need it but I've been wondering lately, why I waited so long. Good luck with your decision.


The Carbon Spyder the one I've been eyeing for the very reasons you specified. But after shooting it I didn't feel enough of a difference between it and my old bow to sway me. A lot of good advice received here. I guess I'll just keep shooting my Ol' reliable until it quits being fun. . .
