About 9 months ago when I was looking for a new bow, I tested a couple bow techs along with about 10 other bows from 5 other companies. None of the bows were tested with any add-on dampening or silencing stuff. My opinion was that the bow techs had unquestionalbly more hand shock than any other bow I tested. They also had a harsher draw cycle. I could see where the speed was coming from - it was the effort I had to put into the draw. This was a big enough negative for me to eliminate them from consideration.

If they come out with brace heights over 8" and less recoil in future models, I will certainly give them another shot when I get my next bow.
