RE: What's so hot about the Patriot?
The Bowtech Patriot was the first bow with really parrellel limbs. Its vertical force technology greatly reduced vibration and recoil. Last year it was the only one offered. You're right about the other bows! The BKII and other bowtechs are great too. I think your right about the Extreme. Now that it has Vertical Force Technology for 2003 it will be a really hot bow. Especially since its about $100 less!
PRACTICE....PRACTICE....PRACTICE......SUCCESS!
