RE: Well, here's what's new from BowTech for 2003...
<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote<font size=1 face='Verdana, Arial, Helvetica' id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote>
BowTech-Shooter, none of my local Bowtech dealers know anything about these new bows....or they're just not letting on they do. Talked with two different dealers today, one I have delt with quite a bit(also a Mathews dealer) and he would tell me if he knew anything about them. He said he would call today and find out about the new bows, especially the Patriot DC. I hunt with 60 lbs. and would love to pick up some speed to gain a little KE. Bowtech Shooter, any idea of speed out of Pat DC 29" draw @ 60 lbs. and about a 370 grain arrow? I have been a loyal Mathews shooter and currently shoot an SQ2 but am seriously looking at the new Bowtechs. My only problem is that he(my local dealer) doesn't sell alot of Bowtechs, so I would have to order it and be satisfied with its shootability. How would it compare to my SQ2(hand shock & noise). Sorry bout all the questions, but that's alot of money to spend on a bow...Thanks in advance.

All the information I posted is still being communicated to all the Dealers. It takes a little time for the Sales Account Reps to get through all of them,but they will.
I don't have all the draw length specs yet so I'm giving you a rough guess on a 29" 60# Dual Cam Patriot with a 300 gr. arrow I would say it would shoot around 318-322 fps or so. With a 370 gr.arrow I would say around right around 298-302 fps or so.
I can't in any way shape or form compare this or any of our bows to any of the Mathews bow models. I don't know their line and my opinion will not be the same as everyone elses. I get asked that a lot and I can't answer it honestly. Best thing you could do is try them all out and judge for yourself...There's quite a few dealers in Ill. maybe when they start shipping them you can go try one out at another dealer. Here's a list of our Ill. dealers for now but I'm sure we'll be adding more at the AMO Show in Jan. Good Shooting and Be Safe...
