Default Pro40 Freedom Warning!!!

If you own one of these bows,,,, don't shoot at the same spot My neighbor just got one of these babys and I helped him set it up. He was shooting very well and asked if I'd like to try it,,,, O, well ok, I said Shooting my arrows at 30 yards and compensating for the difference in sight settings, the second group I shot wrecked yet another pair of my Gold Tip 3D arrows[:@] This is one very nice bow and I was suprised to find that it is much lighter than it looks. The bow is very quiet at the shot, much like the Liberty I shot but with maybe just a bit of jump. Well have to chrono this one maybe this weekend

So it was only the bow that shot the arrow so accurately......

Maybe give yourself a little credit as well.....

I've been eyeing that Pro 40 pretty hard. That 8 1/4 brace height makes my day. Problem is, I can never find a pro shop that has them in stock

I have seen WWAG shoot.......................Its the bow[8D]

Your right though she is a sweet shooter with a great feel to it

Geometry wise its almost Identical to the Mathews Q2XL, a proven target bow, But its a Bowtech..............So it has to be that much better........right??

Now......If I can just shoot my new BT release a little better..........................

Shooting someone else bow @ 30 yards, compensating on the pin and nailing a Robinhood--Russ you're on FIRE.
Have you tried the new GT Ultralights as yet, got the chance to shoot two a few days ago, must admit, they're an improvement. Now I'm waiting on my first dozen.

Rack's right! I'm not that good of a shot,,, I've never had a robinhood past 30 yards I've learned though that I shouldn't be shooting at the same spot at 30 and under while shooting a BowTech

I have to agree with ya WWAG... Think maybe we should put a warning label on the bow somewhere...

I shot my last round of a ten week animal league the other night and out of the 30 shots I mucked up 3 of my X7's (good thing I took 6 with me huh?)

Buying a Pro 40 would be a mistake. After all the junk you have stirred up about the Bowtechies around here, I would be forced to devote at least a 100 hundred posts either in refernce to or dipicting you eating crow[:-]
