I have the BKII and did own the Patriot.

I love them both..but if you can, you should wait for 2003's...

However, Bowtech has a nice rebate going on now with the 2002's..either way it's a win-win <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

Anyhoo..I had about 10 bows this year, and I sold everything but the BKII option II. Super fast, extremely accurate, and surprisingly pleasant to shoot. Phenomenal bow.
