Hi,
I pulled my old, 1990 Pearson Spoiler Plus from the basement a few weeks ago and had it completely refurbished with a new string, rest and sights and MAN, am I loving this old bow again!
My main bow now is a 2006 Hoyt Trykon XL and it's a beast, but that old Spoiler Plus is still NICE!
The limbs and everything are still great and it has a 38" axle length and an 8" brace height. I always shot it well, but fell into the speed craze and got the 314 fps (AMO) Trykon.
I think my Spoiler was 240 AMO -very fast in 1990- and it doesn't seem too slow even today, but I turn the lbs up to 65 lbs (it's got 72 lbs in it) and my Trykon maxes out at 58 lbs.
Anyway,
Very FUN to fix the old friend up again. I'm planning to keep it as a backup hunting bow and I want to test it out had-to-head-vs my Trykon at my 3D field range. It sure draws over smoother with the old "energy wheels".
It's old technology, but its fun re-learning the fine details again. That bow was -HOT- in it's day.
Hard to believe that bow is 19 already? OMG.
