From an online forum:

“Jennings was bought by Bear years ago, the Jennings Strike and Reliant are very nice bows. The Reliant riser is very similar to the new Bear but has been out for a year longer, I would not be surprised to find out the new Truth was based on it.

I was looking at getting a Reliant myself as the shops that carry them around here are closing out on them and selling them for a great price.”
