G5 ads are simple but the are to the point, I like them alot.

"I don't like the Martin ads with the big chested women in them. To me, that is not what hunting is about and they are only doing it to cause an emotion in the testosterone drivenmen. I just don't like the ads because it seems that they don't respect the sport as much."

I agree. Don't care for them either. Like'm less when I found out that was the owners daughter. No taste.

"i get a kick out of those gobbler guillotine ads. when i see that head spinning off in slow motion i just say dam the one isn't going far"

LOL:D

well I kinda of like the Martin ads. Agreed not what archery is about, but we seem to not mind with beer commercials, or shampoo, or shoes, so why not, it is all about marketing and if it sells bows, oh well. Not all archers are bow hunters, and I have seen some of those type women at 3D and other shoots.

And I want to see the Gobbler Guillotine, dang it! [8D]

Martin, no contest.

Sex sells, plain and simple. Martin uses an age old technique to promote their product. If I had a company that produced a product, I would use the same technique.

Not arguing this any farther.

I still like the old one where the camera is panning the woods. then yu heat a tolet flush and a door to an outhouse open.


Hate Browning Bow's new ad Once you try it you'll never (Switchback)

RE: What hunting ads are the coolest?
 

Another vote for the Switchback add, I too agree that I don't like the Martin Adds. I guess that when I think of archery I think of hunting and shooting with my family and friends. My wife and I shoot and hunt together when she has time. My son and daughter age three and four already own their own bows. So I guess what I am saying is IMO that the sex sell promotion doesn't belong in hunting. In the shop that I work at we do sell Martin along with Jennings and Mathews.The shop ownerdoes not dare put up some of the posters that martin sends,in fear of offending the public. Most guys when buying a bow do bring in their wife for approval. I think overall it hurts Martin more than it helps.

I like the Mossy Oak adds about hunting with friends and family. Dang I'm turning into a woman.:D

RE: What hunting ads are the coolest?
 

martin is not the only bow co that uses women for advirtisement i found a website off of archery talk about the history and bear also uses them and bowtech also hows a bow girl too

RE: What hunting ads are the coolest?
 

Martin bows, Yummmy.

RE: What hunting ads are the coolest?
 

I don't care much for most of the advertising. I guess I just resent it because it's added cost being passed on to the consumer. Every time I see a hoytor bowtechad, I know that's another $1 that I'll have to pay when it's time to break the bank on a new bow.

The old Muzzy ads that had the broadhead shredding through a thick piece of bone - they actually persuaded me to switch from Thunderheads to Muzzy. The Gobbler Guillotine ad was also a piece of advertising that has made me actually want topurchase a particular product.

Hunting is all marketing these days, and that's the one thing that I really drives me nuts. I used to enjoy watching hunting shows/reading hunting mags/etc., but now I'm so turned off by the non-stop, in-your-face marketing of it all, that I'd rather spend my evening spotting deer or sitting on a ridge plinking groundhogs.
