The PSE Brute Compound Bow Review

Posted by Melvin on Jul 6, 2009 in Stormy Life

The name says it all. This latest PSE compound bow is aptly named the ‘Brute’ to signify the tremendous power you’re likely to extract from this bow. This is simply a precision shooting bow, that for the size has a very light feel to it. Once you’ve got into position and you draw back the strings to take aim, you’ll see why this bow lives up to its name, in both sheer power and the accuracy of aim even in inexperienced hands.

This PSE compound bow features a very lightweight riser and the ability to finely adjust the draw length to your requirements. Its slim low torque grip and the built-in backstop will ensure you get virtually no string vibration. The precision engineered parallel limb designs result in an elegant looking bow that is highly functional but a pleasure to use. The multiple sight mounting holes provides every user the ability to configure the bow for their specific requirements, while never compromising on performance. At just over 4lbs the Brute is suitable for both new and experienced archers.

The finish on, this PSE bow like most others by this manufacturer has a sleek Oak treestand finish that adds that touch of class. With a brace height of 8 1/8 and a factory installed and configured Vibracheck hush kit, you’ll ensure optimum performance ‘straight out of the box’. The asymmetric idler wheel ensures both an aesthetically pleasing design and top performance in the field. This latest creation from the brand leader is great value and you would expect to pay a little less than $400 to pick-up this bow. You would expect to pay a lot more for a bow that is built to this level of quality, and many users have commented that this bow is smoother and quieter to operate, than bows that are in the plus $700 bracket.

In conclusion whether you’re a new or experienced archer the PSE Brute is a good overall performer with some great top-end features.

Wii Fit In Stock

Posted by Melvin on Jul 6, 2009 in Stormy Life

The weather is turning colder. The Holiday Season is upon us. Lists for Santa are being crafted by children all over the world. What do you suppose is at or near the top of the list? Probably the Wii Fit bundle.

One of the most popular games these days is the Wii Fit. It’s a simulator that uses real-life facts to create and manage the game.

Wii Fit In Stock

The challenge right now is finding a wii fit in stock. If you would like to buy one it just not as easy as going to the local big box store and picking one up. It can be just as challenging to find one online. Don’t worry about that just yet. I’ll tell you about my favorite place to get one where it’s always in stock.

There are hundreds of articles online that will tell you all about the game. The Body Test is sure to make you feel a bit insecure but the training program can help you turn that around.

It has a BMI, or Body Mass Index, that measures your body fat and composition. Your character in the game won’t let you forget about your BMI but also acts as a sort of trainer. But Wii fit enthusiasts will tell you that while it can be annoying at first the game can lead you to a healthier life. Being able to track your progress is a motivating factor and can be a big help in your overall performance.

You can take part in aerobics, strength training, balance games and yoga using the training modes. The idea is to use your character, which sort of takes your shape, to work your way through the workouts. Use the fit pad to measure your success as you go through the various workouts.

The virtual caricatures, which are unique to the Wii, represent you as you use the fit board to go through the game. While not always 100% correct the caricature can change its shape as yours changes. It reminds me a little of the SIMS game but this one is much more realistic, even if less game-like, and really draws you in.

Wii Fit Available Online

Finding a wii fit available online can be hard. Here’s my secret…go to auctions4acause.com and bid on one there. They always have them in stock and if you set your strategy correctly you can take it down for 50% of retail.
