PSE Dominator
The Dominator is taking over the target scene and everyone who has purchased one loves it. I have just setup my new PSE Dominator to see what all the talk is about. I have owned specific target bows before, my last specific target bow was the PSE Money Maker.
The first thing you notice with the new Dominator is the speed 320 fps - it is signicantly faster than the Money Maker. The bow is heavy at almost 5 lbs, target bows tend to be heavy but for me is is heavy as one of my other bows is only 3.5 lbs. However shooting the bow I find is very stable and I really did not notice the extra weight at drawing and aiming.
I setup the bow with a PSE blade arrow rest, Axcel target sight, Vibra Check stabilizer. I needed a new set of target arrows so instead of fletching my own I purchased the PSE Pro arrows $145 dz. I fitted Carbon Tech 85grain points and Carbon Tech Pin system.
So how does the bow shoot? After adjusting the sight all my arrows touched one another - my first end I shot one nock off. Second end even the bad shot went in the centre and I shot another nock off. I found the bow easy to shoot and very accurate. It appears to me to be the most accurate bow I have shot as I did not have 1 loose arrow. I have always liked fast bows and this bow is fast enough.
I watched an interview on Youtube where the engineer of the Dominator discussed the the Grip. I own a few PSE's and for some reason the Dominator grip is the best. Im not sure why, but it does feel good.
I have sold quiet a few Dominators now and everyone is reporting that it is the best bow they have ever shot. Peoples scores have risen and loose arrows appear to be a thing of the past. I let a former Hoyt shooter shot my Dominator the other day and he purchased one. I setup the bow and he went down the club and shot, he was back next day for a Vibra Check stabilizer. Despite the Vibra Check stabilizer been alot cheaper than his Fuse he reported the Fuse had alot of vibration compared to the Vibra check.
I have shot the Dominator for 2 weeks now every day and I have not picked up one of my other bows. I have not thrown any loose arrows and even my bad shots are shooting in the middle. I am really liking the Dominator and the Carbon Force arrows are super tough - I have not broken any so far. So if money is no object and target archery is you game then this bow should be on your must try list.
Arrow Shafts - Life seemed so much simpler 30 years ago, you had the choice of aluminum arrows, wood or Fibreglass. Today there seem to be more arrow manufactures than choices in chocolate, then to make life even harder each manufacturer makes an endless variety of arrows and spines and weights. So what to choose and where to start.
The first spot I start with is price. I want a durable arrow, now I have not shot very few of arrows on the market but I know Carbon Tech and Carbon Force make tough arrows. My Carbon Tech arrows are over 2 years old and still shooting great. So if you try a new arrow shaft and they don't last, try something different.
Arrow Manufactures - I particularly don't care much about who makes an arrow, I look at the specifications of an arrow (how much an arrow weighs). For target I look for a lighter arrow, Field archers tend to look at medium weight arrows and Bowhunters shooting large poundage will often shoot a heavy arrow.
Easton make a variety of arrows - but the most popular is the Power flight - these arrows are cheap and are normally selected by hunters and recreational shooters. Easton has been loosing popularity in recent years, Im not sure why but the other varieties struggle to sell.
Carbon Express is just booming in popularity. The Predator shafts which are low cost are very popular, but Pile Drivers are really popular with hunters due to weight and price. The top end Carbon Express arrows such as Blue Streak look amazing and are selling very well. Sales in Carbon Express easily exceed Easton for me.
Carbon Tech are manufactured using a unique process - while carbon Tech have always been well recieved and regarded as a tough arrow. While Carbon Tech have a loyal following new archers are not selecting Carbon Tech probably due to the price.
Carbon Force are really popular with PSE shooters as all PSE bows come with these arrows. the arrows are tough and affordable - Our most popular arrow.
Gold Tip produce and affordable and durable arrow. The gold tip Hunter are the most popular and are well regarded.
