I am 6'2" and pretty long arms, so I may have to go with the exocet, vortex or the Phoenix. My dad has the exomax and it seems a little long for me. It seems it would fit me better if it was a little shorter. Now I'm down to three!!! I've shot a few hogs with the .375 H&H so I know a little about overkill!! :lol:

I'm 6'1" and shoot the Phoenix. I wasn't worried about the length of the stock because i added a recoil pad to lengthen it. I chose the Phoenix because of the draw weight. I have lower back problems and i'm turning 60 this year. With the Phoenix i can shoot extended periods without it bothering me. If you are young and can comfortably draw a heavier bow weight and the stock is not too long, i would go that way because you do have some advantage shooting heavier bolts at decent speeds.
