I have a 72 model, I've managed to keep it in good order, I like the fact that it is 48 lbs. I probably draw 27 inches when I shoot this bow, because I use a high cheek anchor with it. It probably is a short range bow, althought I can do pretty well with it out to 30 yards (I have some kitty little bottles sitting around different spots in my yard to shoot different range sequence shots). I'm no robin hood, but I can pincushion the one at 30 yards pretty easily. This is not to say I would shoot game at that distance with it, because I'm getting an 8 to 10 inch group. Now, I've spent a good deal of time working on form and release, and this is the best I can do, your results may vary, but this is not a long range bow.
It is however, a great short range, brush, hog, deer, armidillo, small game bow. Its quick, I think the extremely small site window helps with target acquisition for small points on the target (aim small, miss small). At ten yards, if you can get a hog in the sight window, you can make him bleed in a meaningful way.
I'm kind of old school on arrows - I like to shoot overweight arrows in this bow, because it smoothes it out. Plus, (and I'm sure the rocket scientists will disagree) a heavy arrow has more energy at the target. My fav for this bow is a 2216 aluminum with 125 gr. three blade broadhead. I have shot it indoors at short range with carbon arrows ("realwood") and 100 gr broadheads. It shoots a lot flatter, but I can feel the difference in dampening (or lack thereof).
In the brush or on a stalk, this is the bow I want. At the target range (and I'm not a target archer) not so much.
It does stack, but who cares, form is everything, if you don't practice enough to draw and release whatever you are shooting, then you just can't buy a solution to that problem.
Plus, its cute. I like short girls, ok.
