The draw of the Sequel is very similar to the SS34 in comfort mode. Does not stack or dump hard into the valley. Just very smooth from start to finish. I haven't chrono'ed it yet, but every report and test online has it meeting or exceeding the 335 IBO; so it is a little faster than the SS34 in comfort mode. The machining and finish on the Sequel is top notch and the lower stabilizer mount with stubby (like hoyt) is a nice option. I am actually running hoyt go sticks with the Sequel and they work perfectly.
The biggest differences is that the SS34 has the dead lock system and the Sequel still uses shims for tuning. The dead lock is definitely an easier and nicer system to work with. But I wouldn't rule out the RVX either. I have shot the Revex and they are an awesome bow. If you want to try an RVX, you should head to Lawrence's new shop in Spruce Grove.

This is what got me into this "mess" in the first place. Lawrence let me try one of his new RVXs and I got the archery bug again and am looking to get back into archery and bow hunting. I might just grab an RVX as I really like them.

The kill is the satisfying, indeed essential, conclusion to a successful hunt. But, I take no pleasure in the act itself. One does not hunt in order to kill, but kills in order to have hunted. Then why do I hunt? I hunt for the same reason my well-fed cat hunts...because I must, because it is in the blood, because I am the decendent of a thousand generations of hunters. I hunt because I am a hunter.- Finn Aagard
