Default RE: Bowtech Question, Need fast advice

The VFT is a smooth drawing bow (well, for the speed bows)! It has a short a.t.a length 34-1/8" but it feels larger than that! The bow is incredibly quiet and shock free! Quality is the same as all other BowTechs, which is top notch! My best friend shoots one and it is set at 28" draw, factory hush kit, 3 eliminator buttons, 2 brass nocks, Tru-peep, 63# draw weight, shooting a 390 grain arrow at 269 f.p.s. The bow has a small brace height at 6-5/8" but it is very manageable. With heavy clothes, it will be a good idea to wear a tight black sock with the toe end cut out over your clothes. This will save you money over any of the other arm guards out there plus it will help prevent your string from snagging onto your clothes.

I have no experience with the BKII but from what I have seen on here, some people love it while others don't. The bow is definetly a SCREAMER!!!!!! It also has a small brace height of 5-3/4", which some can shoot perfectly fine while others can't. It has a longer a.t.a. of 36-1/4" which will make it more stable.

Keeping the BKII is just about a mute point with the strings on the BowTechs. BowTech has some of, if not the best factory strings of any bow companies and that helps prevent the tuning issues that use to be a problem with dual cam bows back in the day.

Whatever you choose, it is a good choice. These are both great bows backed by a great company which is ran by great guys!!!!!
