So I got to ask how do you like the stealth? Do those cams effect the smooth draw?

Draw is not as smooth, at higher poundage.60#> have had a few with bent/bad cams.
Speed wise a little faster(3-5 FPS) than the rest of the Oneida line but IMO,the tradeoff is not worth it
Not the nice valley of the rest of the bow line. When you have one lock up it can be quite a awakening! The limb stops must be set correctly& this is definately a bow you should have a 2nd set of hands available when working on.
I had 3 & kept the 2 best. I also have a box of extra cams,modules,limbs etc as extras but in all, a nice bow to have as a curiosity for the Oneida collector.
Edit:
Most people who swear they are so good shoot them the least & usually off them soon after!

My first stealth and only one I ever owned looked like that one when I pulled it out of the box. I was in love with thr design. It then fell apart as fast as it came out of the box. Had to send it back over 6 tmes. Just about gave up on it and for the 800.00 I paid for it I had to make it work.
That bow holds more secrets about bow designs that have never been built. I not talking fast flyte either, that anyone can do and it still is not the tech this bow can relate.
Great bow with a lot of issues but as Paul said the CPO Bows of today are better than the Oneidas of old.
As for my stealth, RIP.
Bob
PS. I still have the proto for that bow in a box, put away.

are the cams just too long and lanky to be good and sturdy?
