From the pse-archery.com website:

"Archers can count on PSE to bring advanced manufacturing techniques to the industry. PSE was one of the first companies to machine bow risers and accessories from solid aluminum. PSE pioneered the four stage forging process for bow risers to create strong, lightweight bows.

PSE, as the industry's leading manufacturer, holds twenty patents for bow design and archery products. These improvements spread throughout the industry to everyone's benefit, not just PSE. "Research and development are the most expensive stages in manufacturing," Pete Shepley explains, "but we're committed to it and to making the whole industry grow, not just our slice of the pie."

PSE Infinity Thunderbolt

I have been shooting my PSE Thunderbolt for two years now and my father and my brother also shoot the Thunderbolt. This is a great shooting bow at a sensational price and the prices keep going down!

I didn't buy a kit because I wanted to set-up the bow myself. I already had a sight I wanted to use, but other than that, I bought a new quiver, and all new accessories. I feel like it is actually fairly easy to set up a bow and I think it's fun.

This bow is extremely strong and stiff. I'm very happy with how quiet it shoots and it's durability has been proven over two hard seasons spent slogging through brush and long hours in the blind. I tune the bow at the beginning of the season and unless I happen to accidentally abuse it, it stays in tune all season.

I consider this a good all around bow that isn't just for "old-timers" with plenty of experience. The Infinity Thunderbolt is also a great bow for beginning archery hunters, who might need a bit of help setting it up, but who will find it an accurate and easy to shoot bow with good arrow speed and stopping power. The brace height and long axle to axle length creates a forgiving bow that is easy to shoot well.

The PSE Company is well known for producing quality products and their customer support couldn't be better.

My brother's first bow was the Baby G, but he switched to the PSE Infinity Thunderbolt because it is so much easier to shoot, especially when in you are in conditions that are, shall we say... less than ideal?

Short Summary: Quality construction, accurate and fast, very forgiving. PSE first class quality throughout.

Final Thoughts: In my time I've shot many bows, among them Herters, Onida, Browning and Mathews and it is definitely fair to say that this PSE Infinity Thunderbolt combines all of the good qualities and avoids all the bad qualities of my previous bows. I am very satisfied with this bow and plan to shoot it for many more years.
