Overall, the riser, limbs, cams, and accessories are in great structural condition. The bow string and serving show normal cosmetic wear and light fraying near the peep and cable stop connection, so while it is completely assembled and ready to shoot, a fresh string down the road will keep it performing at its peak. Originally retailing between $500 and $600 for the full outfit, I am asking $200 for the entire setup.
