I would think that therewould be just a goodstuffout there that is less money. IMO you should just buy cheaper stuff. Its probably just as good

I see this opinion alot at the the shop. I don't agree with it, but alot of guys spend 800.00 on a good bow then load it up with inferior accessories and expect the bow to still perform flawlessly.

Example: A guy just bought a new Guardian (08 model) and put his 3 year old Whisker Bisquit on it that is so shot out it looks like a tumble weed. Then puts his cheap old sight on it (can't remember what it is now) that has a scope about the size of a quarter and the pin isn't even glowing anymoreand can't figure out why he's still shooting all over the target.

Some guys can shoot almost anything welland some need all the help they can get. IMO cheap plastic accessories won't help you get the best performance from your 800.00 bow. But cheap plastic accessories will funtion or get you by if that's what you want.... to get by.

When are the Octane products going to be in stores??? I really like this new line. The quiver prices are overpriced but nice. Magnets don't cost that much...I got my kid 26 (A-Z) of them for under $5.00!!! Anyways, I am a sucker for cool stuff .

It looks like the last week of February on the quivers and stabilizers. The Hostage Pro will be sometime around second week of March"¦
... and there's a HUGE difference between these rare-earth magnets and the ones you can buy at the five and dime store

The price for the quiver seems a little high, but wait till you play with one of those things! They are AWESOME!

The owner of the local shop said that he was getting ready to order all the stuff from them. I plan on getting the hostage pro, havent decided on witch quiver (the one or two piece) and the 11.5 inch stablizer on my 82nd that im getting. CANT WAIT!!!!!!!!!! I think that will look awesome

I'm thinking 7" Hunter Stabilizer and maybe H-Pro (I'll wait for Dan's review). Quiver's are too $$$$$ for now.
