Default golden eagle ironeagle?????

what everhappened to golden eagles iron eagle, the iron eagle was byfar the best and most ultimate bow EVER manufactured. Iv seen pass thrus on both hips and on both shoulders, 3 of my friends have them and will not part with them for anything. I thiought the Bowtech BK would be quiet similar but it doesnt seem to have the power the IRONEAGLE does. SOMEONE wake up Golden Eagle , PLZ. Im still working on my BK to get it close to the performce that my friends shoot with their Ironeagles, aint made it yet but working on it.

From what I seem to remember, Kevin Strother, the VP of Research and Engineering at Bowtech was the man behind the cams on the GE Iron Eagle. I am surprised to hear that you aren't getting similar performance for your BK2 considering the source. Maybe there is something up his sleeve for next year's lineup that will be more to your liking.

I really don't know where you get your information, but bows do not cause passthroughs. All a bow, any bow, does is launch an arrow at a certain speed. That being said, the BK is probably one of the fastest bows ever made. Once the arrow is released it's the job of the broadhead together with good arrow flight that determines penetration. Of course, shot placement enters into it, too.

If you do some homework you'll also find that Golden Eagle is not even manufactured any more so I wouldn't look for too many improvements to their bows, at least not from the manufacturing side.
