Check out this new bow!!!!
Elite just updated their website today to include the new "envy". Check the specs out on this bad boy. However, the MSRP is a little high. I know some folks on this site have stated that Elite archery has a few problems such as customer service, etc. However, I must say I would love to shoot this bow. What are your guys' opinions of it?

Wonder why they're using a cam with a draw stop. I thought those were on the way out.

Good looking bow, kinda looks like a hoyt and a mathews bumped uglies and out popped the envy lol. Specs are great, weather or not they actualy come close is another story and I personaly thing customer service is very important no matter what kinda specs a bow has.

RE: Check out this new bow!!!!
If it is as good as the other Elites i shot it will be an awesome shooting bow. I cant wait to hear some input on it. I wonder how harsh the draw is? I guess we'll wait and see.

Anybody hear about the $1000 price tag?
Killer design, horrible price. |
RE: Check out this new bow!!!!
Great looking bow, awesome specs. But I kind of agree with Dan. If you want to grow as a company you might not want to price yourself right out of the market. There are plenty of incredible bows going for $500-$800.

ORIGINAL: Washington Hunter Anybody hear about the $1000 price tag? Killer design, horrible price. If they had a bow that was designed to shoot instead of chrono and sit in a tree with,I would like to try one out.They look sweet. Lets see,36" a-a, 7 1/2" brace and 315 ibo.Along with those laminated limbs. OH Hoyt already makes it,the vectrix Xl.[8D] Just kidding guys,I do like what they are doing but maybe when they get a little bigger,they will start gearing their products toward other potential buyers. |
RE: Check out this new bow!!!!
I heard thatthey are only running a production of about 1000 envy's and they don't have a problem finding people to pay $1000. That's the MSRP though, probably retails a little lower. I would not want to draw this bow back out of a tree stand on a cold day...You have to pay the price for all that speed somehow.

I am going to guess there is alot of preload on the limbs but being laminated,they should handle it no problem.You are also probably right in asuming the cam is a bit harsh.[8D] |
RE: Check out this new bow!!!!
dont think its worth it

![]() 355 fps ...wow |
RE: Check out this new bow!!!!
They have one for $659.00 that shoots 342 fpswith a 7" brace.The Synergy,but I bet the draw curve is fun on that one too.

RE: Check out this new bow!!!!
To me the Envy's cams look like the cams from the Black Knight 2. If that's the case, that would explain where they are getting the speed from. It would also not be the sweetest drawing bow out there, but it's built for speed. I agree that $1k is expensive, but it's a limited run.
TFox, the draw on the Synergy is not bad at all from what I am hearing. I haven't drawn one yet, but should in a few weeks. I've been told it is between a BT Tribute and a Guardian. I've seen the draw force curve mappings on it and it is nearly identical to an Allegiance with speed mods. Your original request for a "shooter" is in the works according to the rumor mill. It's supposed to be a single cam with a higher brace, longer a2a, and a forgiving design. I beat Elite up pretty bad when they first came out because of some of Kevin Strother's comments about BowTech. I still feel those comments were in bad form, but I've talked to reps from the company and they seem to be very good people and their customer service has improved. I don't even have one of their bows and they've always taken the time to talk to me. They seem to be a pretty good young company, and if their service matches the quality and design of their bows they should be around for a while. |

yah they can keep it for that price. nice looking but not for that much.

RE: Check out this new bow!!!!
Nice bow but outta my price range!

RE: Check out this new bow!!!!
I doubt it will be long before you see $1,000 tags on the top shelf bows.......I saw a Drenalin going for $799 this year.

RE: Check out this new bow!!!!
I like it a lot! If I were in the market, I'd seriously look at one. I've shot the Synergy and it's a sweet, quiet adn fast shooter. The envy shoudl be even better.
|
RE: Check out this new bow!!!!
Looks like a good bow 2 me and the specs look good also, but I would not buy a bow I don't know much about.
|
RE: Check out this new bow!!!!
I shoot an Elite Synergy and it is the most solid bow I have shoot, solid back wall and smoking speed. hate to say it but even better than my trusted ALLY sorry Bowtech. I'm a changed man.
