Just got a Prime Shift and think I am really going to enjoy it! Read a lot of reviews prior to getting it...only shot it a few times so far and it feels awesome...draw is really smooth, solid back that you can barely feel any resistance on. Not as fast as lots of the bows out there for the same or less money, but think this is a solid nice shooting bow.

I shoot a Shift, Defy and now a Centroid and love them. Personally I like the Shift and Centroid cams better but that s just me. Go shoot one, you won't be disappointed.

^^^^ Thought you were getting an Impact?
I shoot a Defy and really like it.

Default Prime

For Edmonton SPAL has a couple Prime bows (not sure on models but no Alloy's) and for Calgary I believe JimBow's has a few. I know for sure 3 weeks ago JimBow had the distributor's "Alloy" demo model for customers to try, unfortunately I never made it in. As with all stores, US and Canada, getting or keeping stock in Prime is very difficult. It is a testament to how well they sell and that they are in high demand.

I bought a shift 2 years ago and it is a pleasure to shoot. I would love to get a centroid (60/29) as a second bow or target rig but I will have to wait until I sell a gun.

But..... Not everyone likes Prime so do not buy any bow without shooting it and then returning for a second shoot to confirm it's what fits you best.

Later
