I've heard of doing things backwards, but this thing really is backwards.. :?

It's different, that for sure.

Being a farmer myself I would like to see some bailing wire added to that thing before I bought one.

Has anyone shot this. It looks similiar to a cross between a compound bow and a sling shot.

I don't know if this is the same model but a guy had one of these at the range just last week. He let me shoot it a few times and it worked very well. He was very good with it and shot a consistant 2" group at 20 yds.

It was very solid and felt good in my hands. Yeah it was strange and felt different but it was also very light weight, very tiny, very quiet, very well built, and very accurate.

I was skeptical when I first saw it but after shooting it, I was impressed. I really like the tiny size and light weight. If you get a chance, you should try one just for fun.

There's a crossbow out there that works on a similar reverse compound design. I saw a photo of it in an archery industry magazine a while back.
