The treestand pattern was out of Bowtech's control; that's about all I can say there.

And atlas, I don't think Bowtech brought out anything "revolutionary" this year, but I would disagree with "exciting." Bows hitting 348 fps legitimately (read 5 grains per lb. ) is pretty darn exciting. Again, not revolutionary, but exciting none the less.

Just to add a quick point, the optional camo patterns have been shipping since Nov and there are plenty of them out there. Do a search on AT and you'll find a bunch of them.
That isn't the answer my dealer got when he called and asked.......the time frames I posted is what he was told.

You guys are making this out to be like I have something against Bowtech..........I still shoot a Patriot and they are my #1 choice for bows.

2-8 weeks for stock bow and no guess would even be made on specialty camo options. That's what I was told when he hung up the phone..........standing at the counter with $1,000 in hand.

Do they ship to different parts of the country slower maybe??

No they all get shipped basically the same way and the NY Sales Rep. does a spectacular job of keeping his dealers informed with correct and updated info.

Is S&S Taxidermy still the dealer you go to?

You fail to see a lot of things, Art.

Namely, the technology to build a 5.5 gpi arrow, built to handle big-game hunting at +/- .001 straightness, that is stiffer than any other arrow on the market, thus eliminating energy loss due to shaftflexion upon release.Even at mind-warping speeds.

I must have missedthe newpaper clipping the last time somebody tried to market that "old" idea.
You are aware that a properly spined arrow, not just "stiffer than any other on the market", will give you a more forgiving/shootable setup. Right? But I guess if you make them stiff enough......spine consistency won't really matter. Some "old ideas" are relegated to that status for a good reason.

Like Greg mentioned, the Treestand pattern not being offeredis beyond our control.

We've sentsamples to Mossy Oak forapproval in which they haven't passed. Justas soon as they do we'll be taking orders for it again.

And, the problem is with the film, not how it's being applied.


Atlasman, I'mstill waiting on an answer to#41

What got your attention this year?
A bow quieter and more vibration/recoil-free than the Guardian. Two bows that actually WILL shoot in excess of 340 fps. Some that made, and make that claim, won't.

Re: the second point earlier.You miss my point.

Nice to see the truth FINALLY come out........so what I have said ALL ALONG is 100% accurate.

I hope all the guys who have been all bent out of shape over me saying I thought the time frame I was given was a bit much don't miss this.

Manybows and companieshave that going for them this year.............again, why I don't consider it "exciting"

Since they other thread was closed

What does this pattern (tree stand) look like? Atlas could give a rats arse about camo. If he likes this one a lot, I want to see it[8D]
