i had a bear "code" a few years back. it shot ok (still is for the guy who bought it) only thing that sticks in my mind is that it was a tad heavy? This may not be the case with the whitetail though.......

i had a WT11, if its the same as mine with nylon eccentric wheels,glass limbs,fully cast riser with no grip(very cold on morning hunts), and green and black camo. the one i had was the worst compound ive ever owned, their a rugged bottom of the range bow that came out in the late 80's and were around for quite awhile. not because they were good though. probably because they mass produced them and couldnt sell them. the risers kept popping up on other bear model for another ten years or so.
i reckon youd be able to find a better one easily, i would'nt pay more than 50 for it. it would make a good fishing bow for $50 though.
hope that helps.

Bowriver ,, how much do you want to spend on a compound? If it upsets people on here , come to TBGA and post the question and I will be glad to help you

Any time a soul wanders to the Dark Side we get upset, Coach!
