Default Who's excited about the new Bowtech Air Raid, their new drop away, and their new sight?

I AM!! All the rave over on AT and other places. The bow is pretty sweet looking, so is their Tripwire dropaway, and their new sight. Looks like some new technology. You bow gurus can give explicit details. I have to admit, that as as soon as I can shoot one, I will be.Some info I grabbed from another forum below.

The Air Raid
























Here is what is new with Bowtech / Diamond / Octane:

7" Brace
IBO 328 - 336 fps
26 - 30" draw (no mods)
Advantage Timber camo only (looks great with bronze colored cams and pockets)
new cams- binaries with a let out track on both sides of the cam- equalizes pressure from the cables with a splitter on the cable.
Retails $799

Diamond:

Nuclear Ice
ATA- short!
13" - 23" draw (no mods)

Not sure on speed, but quick for what it is.
Retails with sight, rest, quiver and 3 arrows for $199
GREAT kids bow.

Octane:

Sight- micro adjust everything. Target and hunter model (both 5 pin .019)
Magnetic light attachment to it
Retails $160 - 190

Bantam Weight Quiver
1 piece
no magnets
lightweight
attaches on top quiver mount where two piece would normally go.
Retail $89

Tripwire Drop Away Rest
drop away which stays up longer during shot.
Want to say retail is $119- don't remember for sure....

All the items are nice.

We also have a Sentinel with the shoot through system on it and a new prototype of a clamp that goes on the sttring supressor in the rear to allow V Bars.

Sorry- no pics. I worked the booth all day and didn't even think about getting any.

The target colored Sentinels and Brigadiers are SWEET.....
