Longwinded.......yep he' s got Jeff pegged!
Bent,
Glad you like the bow so much! I' m one of the many " BowTech Shooters" not the original but A Bowtech Shooter nonetheless.
I have been shooting them for 3 seasons now and couldn' t be happier.
Bows are great, company is great (And approachable as you' ve seen)
Twig,
Pat' s right about that BowTech dealer at the Harrisburg Show.........he' s not a dealer anymore I think in part to exactly what you just described.
Too bad that was your buddy' s first exposure to the company, because I have gotten nothing but first class treatment from guys like Pat and others at the company directly.
I haven' t shot a thing (Other than targets) with my new Patirot Dually and I' m anxious to see the 2004' s already! I' m terrible, you should hear how many times my wife repeats " You' re telling me that you NEED that!?" over the course of a season.........season what season, I mean all year.

I know she isn' t buying it but she' s a good wife.[:-]
If you ever need anything BowTech related feel free to drop me a line, I' m no expert or " Company Man" like Pat but I have been shooting them pretty exclusively for 3 seasons now so if I can help I will.
Good Luck with the new bow!
Oh and Pat eluded to my " Carboard Shipping Box" cover scent.........works like a charm Had the bow out of the box, tuned sighted in and dropped a buck exactly 18 hours later! [8D] That deer just had the look of.........." HMmmm I smell, CARDBOARD?"
