Default pse firestorm lite.

do any of you guys use a pse firestorm lite? i am considering buying one and just wondered if any of you have one and how you like it.
my 1986 pse game sport needs retireing and since it weighs about 9 lbs i could use a break. it has served me well, since 86 i have taken:
six mulies
five whities
four moose
one antelope
eight elk
i think it has earned it's place on the wall.

My wife bought me one off of ebay, and I must say it is an excellant bow, It only weighs 3.3 ponds,85% let off and is very easy to shoot, my grouping is smaller with this bow, I love it, total price of package with delivery was 465,buy one and enjoy

thanks 6t, being such a light bow how would it handle aluminum comp arrows? i don't like the idea of carbon, i believe an arrow needs a little size to give it some punch. the carbons seem a little dainty for my kind of hunting.

the idea of an extremely light bow with a generous let off appeals to me, as i get older the old body doesn't want to co-operate any more. i am suffering from
artheritis in my right shoulder and a bulged disc in my neck. i feel there a few seasons left in me and i plan on elk # 11 this september.

I know how you feel, getting old sucks, as for using aluminum I don't know, Had a good friend take his moose last year with a 50# fred bear bow and used carbon arrows and muzzy broadheads and had a complete pass through at approx 30 yrds. It was through both lungs
