Sounds like Bowtech left me out again this year. I really like the E cam bows and I like the Allegiance and I would love to buy one but I need a little more brace in a hunting bow. I don't like the 31" bows so that leaves me out there. I guess I will have wait until 07 to buy a new bow. All I want is an Allegiance with 7.5 or > inches of brace.Hopefully, there is one out there for this yer that we haven't heard about yet. I really like Bowtech but it seems to me like they are forgetting about the hunter or either I am in the minority on what a hunter wants. Sure I want a fast bow but how about a fast bow that is quiet, accurate,with some added brace height and still around the 34" ATA length. Is it just me or would that not be the perfect hunting?????
The way to look at the new Tribute is that of a more laid back Allegiance......it's on the same riser. At rest the Tribute will look like the Allegiance at full draw and will exhibit very minimal limb tip travel. In effect it will behave very much like an Allegiance at full draw with regards to feel and stability.
It will not behave like a 'Shorty' bow. I expect it to feel and shoot like an even milder shooting and more forgiving Allegiance. It'll be the short bow without the short bow characteristics.
But everyone likes what they like I guess......I would hope you'll at least shoot one with an open mind.
Sounds to me like the Old Glory is what you would like anyway?....8" brace height mid 3teens speed. and it's 37" ATA......That's only 1.5" more on either end (compared to the Allegiance), and if anyone can tell me with a straight face that 1.5" of extra bow on each end is going to interfere with their treestand hunting vs. a 34" ATA.........
So we're missing you by .5" of brace height on the Allegiance or 1.5" of effective ATA length with the Old Glory?
