has anybody shot the bowtech 82nd airbone?
 

Hey there fellas. I shoot a Diamond Black Ice and I love it. It is a great all around bow. But I am considering a 2nd bow, and I have been looking at the 82nd airborne. Can anybody who has shot the 82nd and the black ice give me a comparison? I sure would appreciate it.

thanks pastorowc

I've shot the BI, the 101st and the 82nd.

The Black Ice is a very nice smooth bow, with just a touch of vibration in the handle.

The 101st has a stiff draw, but is dead at the shot. The one I shot has some issues I believe because it made a weird noise at the shot.

The 82nd Airborne is a dream to shoot. It is quieter, maybe a little smoother on the draw and smokin fast. The one I shot had 336fps on the birth certificate @29", 70# 350 grain arrow.

I'm pretty sure it's going to be my next bow.

Mike, just got through watching both your videos. That 82nd definitely sounded better of the two you had...

Yeah, I wish I had more time to spend playing with it. I believe there are some issues with that particular bow that need to be addressed.

Havent shot those bows but i think i will go and try them out

I shot the 101 and was impressed with everything about it. I thought the draw was very smooth for a speed bow, quiet, and very little shock.
How can the 82 be easier to draw than the 101? Same cams, same riser. I am assuming same draw length and draw weight?;)
