I'm looking to buy a mid priced Riser, I was looking at the Win NX Xpert but also see Win have launced a budget Carbon in the form of the ProAccent. Anyone using these what do you think, is there anything else I should be looking at it in the price range.

the few people i know who have shot a pro accent like them (the graphics are VERY garish though)

personally i would suggest that a good alternative is the merlin elite (£220) - a nice lively riser made by a small independent british company who know their archery VERY well

Totally agree, I'm using one in preference to other, more expensive risers that I have, or have owned.

My other half shoots a pro-accent and loves it! He is presently shooting one because he is trying to get used to it but finds shooting it great fun.
