Many of these new bows are ready to ship now unfortunately.
They need to give the dealers time to unload their 2007 inventory.
Yeah, see my post in the other thread concerning new bows on this page. [:@]Our archery opener is still two weeks away and 2008 bowsare already shipping. Very Very annoying that I am going to have to dump all of the 2007 bows at cost in OCTOBER?!?!?!?!?!?!?! and its not even hunting season yet!

I don't think I've ever seen Bowtech announce a new product before November let alone put them on dealer shelves
Just to clarify, they are sending catalogs/products to the dealers. Big surprise for me too. I did not expect to see them until the end of this month/beginning of November.

Great, just when I was hoping to put off that purchase until after the new year. LOL

The new ones arent even on bowtechs website yet, dang i was hoping to see what they looked like. They are already ready to ship them to dealers and havent even updated there site yet.

Im interested in the airborne 101, longer a.t.a. and nice brace height, even if it is kinda a speed bow, sounds like the one i might want to check out.

Can you confirm the IBO of the General? I've heard 308-314 and I have also heard 320.

Looks like that will be my new bow!

Guardian - General - Guardian - General????

HMMM, so now the drama begins...More Brace height but less speed, new cable roller and string stop but weighs more....

ATA is shorter but with those monster cams it may be just as tall end to end.

Guess I'll just have to shoot them both and see which feels better.
