I got to shoot the Drenalin and yes, impressive but after shooting Hoyt for more years than I can remember, I like a thinner handle. The Drenalin was better fitting than the Switchback however none of them, even my Allegiance compared to Matt's Guardian when I shot it....I can only imagine what these new ones feel like. I look forward to seeing Matt's General and Marquis next weekend.

I agree Rob I can't wait to shoot one, however there is not a Bowtech dealer in my area that I consider a good shop. That is why I have yet to shoot the newGaurdians.So I have at least an hour drive to get a chance to shoot a General.

bowtech dealer exactly 4.7 miles from my house, my dad is going to buy an 08'...I'd look more into them, but I bought my Hoyt last season and I'm in college.

I have a SB XT and probably wont get one for another year or so. I have always been a Mathews man, but you guys sure seem to like bowtech.
Wont Mathews have something newer than the Drenalin in 08?
When I decide to get a new bow, I am definitely going to giveBowtech a try.

I've always been the same way fwf, but I can't wait to try out a General.

A Bowtech Airborne or the new Martin Firecat. I ruled out the General already......not ready for that short of a bow.

I will be shooting the Bowtech General and the Diamond Marquis this year. I may also pick up the Diamond Rock and one of the Bowtech Airborne models. I have not decided which yet though.

My first experiences.....

I got too many bows already. Dating from 1965-2006. But who knows if I run across a good deal.

Well I plan on checking out the new Bowtech Line-up and anything else that may catch my fancy.

Will I buy? Well if the new bows live up to all the hoopla. I Probably will..But it will be after the 1st of the year!
