Get the SS.  It is the best of all the models they offer.  I have at least one of each model except the new Woodland.  All the employees shoot the SS as well.  If you draw over 28"  I would get a longer bow.  JMO  They have a bunch you can try upstairs.  Good Luck.

I love my SS, but I am sure they are all great.

To be honest.  You can save a little dough and get the standard model.  In the long run all you get with the SS is the carbon core limbs.  Which is going to add just a few feet per second to your arrow speed.  Which means going from say 150-157.  Not that impressive considering deer still jump strings from compounds. Right?

Love my Diamond SS 62" 50# but I couldn't get used to the grip so I added a little wood to the base where you're palm is and now it's more of a recurve style, sure is more comfortable and seemed to make it a little more accurate for me.
My old man has the same bow in the Woodland Hunter model and if I had to do it again that's what I'd get, the camo is great.
