Which Bowtech?
 

Well, I am thinking about purchasing a new bow. I would like a bowtech, but don't know much about them. Right now, I am just looking and getting a feel for the prices. When I narrow it down more, I will go shoot them. I don't even mind a 2004 model, but no older than that.
Anyway, for you bowtech guru's, which one should I look at?

RE: Which Bowtech?
 

Tell us first what you're looking for in a bow; will you be mostly bowhunting -- and, specifically -- from a treestand most of the time? Do you plan on mixing in some 3D or spot shooting?

What characteristics are important to you?

RE: Which Bowtech?
 

If you are looking for a used or left overbow and want to save some cash I would hands down suggest the 04 or 05 Patriot VFT SC. Perhaps the favorite bow I have ever owned :)

Best of luck picking that perfect bow.

Hunting mostly, but will do some spot and 3D. 90% hunting, and almost all of that from a treestand. Looking for fast and forgiving. ATA doesn't matter that much to me. Smooth on the draw, little or no shock on the release. Camo'd of course. 30" draw and 72#.

buckeye, I don't suppose you would just happen to have one of those lying around going to waste would you?? :D

RE: Which Bowtech?
 

Fast, forgiving, lots of treestand hunting -- plus little or no hand shock -- with a little bit of 3D thrown in... I'd say the Tribute for sure.

But like I've said, if you go shoot one... "Take money with you!" :D

I don't think I've EVER felt a bow that generates those speeds that dead in my hand at the shot. Heck, who am I kidding? I don't think I've ever felt a bow that dead in my hand, period!

No sir, I made the mistake of selling my Patriot after Ibought the Allegiancein December of 04

I think Rick James has one of those bad boys for sale though!

RE: Which Bowtech?
 

Thinking about converting...AHAHAH

Well if your looking for a new bow, shoot the 06 tribute and allegiance. If you want soemthing a little longer try out the old glory. They all have very respectable speed. 04-05 check out Patriot and Liberty. I shoot a liberty and its super smooth but you'll be happy with anyone that you choose.

Sorry guys, mine was sold last week to some lucky guy in Texas.

RE: Which Bowtech?
 

I shot an 06 Allegiance a couple weeks ago...I now own one :D. You can't go wrong with the Tribute or Allegiance. I opted for something with a little longer ATA.

RE: Which Bowtech?
 

OK....nuther dumb question...is the Patriot and the Patriot Dually the same thing?

RE: Which Bowtech?
 

Technically... I guess. ;)

There's actually two versions of the Patriot.. the single (infinity) cam and the dually.

RE: Which Bowtech?
 

what about prices? I am in the market as well, but I don't know if bowtech will get my money though. looking for something with at ata of 35"

RE: Which Bowtech?
 

With your draw , an "old glory" or "pro 40 dualy" . You can probably find a pro 40 , but I doubt there are many used old glorys out there for sale just yet . The pro 40 dualy is an awesome bow .

RE: Which Bowtech?
 

The Patriot Dually is a different cam system thats all. I hear it is similar to the Hoyt Cam and 1/2 system. I would love to buy a Patriot but do not have the cash. let me know what you go with.
For you guys that shoot alot of bows which would you recommend, a dually system or a single cam?
What is the difference in performance?
Which has less maintance and timing issues?

Jus tryin to help you out her MOBH

RE: Which Bowtech?
 

I personally like single cams. Less tuning/timing issues if you use it ALOT.

RE: Which Bowtech?
 

The smooth module Tribute is the nicest overall"Bowtech" I have shot for a hunting bow !

RE: Which Bowtech?
 

Happy for you! Check out this link. This is how I figured out how to pick my Old Glory. The forgivness ratings are on the right side. 87% NICE!
