The bow seems well made and I hope to give it more stars after using it.My purpose in writing this review immediately is to share that this product shipped in a bare cardboard box with no padding. That's not comforting since I heard the delivery person drop it on my porch and the box took other hits in transit.The bow seems intact, but I'm a novice so I'll need an expert look it over before I can be confident that it's really in good shape.

I have other high end hunting bows. Matthews and Bowtech... But my kids are into archery now, and I bought them all the standard Genesis bows, which are good for both 4H and NASP. I too wanted to get a similar, but more adult version to get the real time experience that they were facing, so that I could maybe relate and coach them a little better without using one of my hunting bows. Enter this Genesis Gen-X bow. Great quality, decent power, I am sure it would be enough to kill a deer at relative range... Wide open to accessories, if needed/wanted. Perfect for the purpose I wanted. To work with my kids as they are getting archery and be in the same playing field.

I have brachial plexus palsy of the right shoulder and ordered this bow for the lower draw weight because I was afraid I couldn't pull alot of weight. Unboxing and first impression on this bow wow was I amazed. Definitely worth the money, shoots amazing and is really easy to draw back and hold even when set for 40 pounds. Speaking of weight this bow will amaze you with how light it is. Even my 6 year old son can hold it out and aim it fine. This is my very first bow but it's the 4th bow I've shot and of all this one is the smoothest and easiest one.

Purchased for my son, bow broke on first pull, couldn’t be repaired, even though his dad can fix just about anything. Return 😕

This bow is very well made and easily adjustable. I wish it came with some string to make a D loop though as I had to make it myself

The Gen-X is the first bow I’ve ever owned, and I am absolutely thrilled with it. Even in the first hour of using it, I was able to consistently group and shoot accurately. This beauty is a dream! As a petite woman, I find the size, weight, and strength of the bow to be perfect. After starting off at 30 lbs, I can honestly see myself comfortably growing with this bow as I improve as an archer with no desire to upgrade to the fancy $700-$1000 range. Maxing out at 40 lbs is plenty draw weight for me, and I’d rather master that weight than consistently struggle only to shoot at crazy, impractical distances. This bow is going to be perfect for short-range stealth hunting, wether that be in brush or up in a tree!I installed an off-brand 3-pin sight and a high quality whisker biscuit to the bow with ease. The Gen-X is easy to understand and easy to use with no sacrifice to quality due to its ridiculously reasonable price tag. It really is the perfect compound bow!

I am a target shooter, so I cannot talk much for hunting. I have shot both styles, but I prefer Olympic Recurve. Due to time constraints I wanted the setup of a compound for coming back into target archery. This is a great in between! You get the setup of a compound & the let off, but no actual spike and dead holding spot. The let off on the cam is so smooth you cannot even tell its happening. Evidently it is, as the holding weight is less, but its such a smooth transition. This is a one of a kind cam for sure. GREAT JOB Matthews/Genesis Archery. Colors are cool & they even have a build a bow option for custom colors. The price point is phenomenal & well worth it. If you are looking for a target bow or something that seems to have a little of the best of both worlds, this is it. I emailed Genesis to get the information on their progressive let off and it is below. I shoot 40lbs at about 27.5" Draw so I am around 55.5% let-off which I think is perfect for target. Enough to keep fatigue down, but still enough weight to pull the strin & not let ya get lazy on holding. :)A+++ BOW!Progressive Let-Off Response:"You will experience some let-off at varying points throughout your draw.For example, at 21” you will experience 19% let-off. At 30”, you will experience 62% let-off."Draw Length: 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30Let off: 19% 25% 31% 38% 43% 48% 54% 57% 61% 62%
