Starting a fight: Couldn't find a Bow Tech
 

Before I purchased my BK II I was looking @ some Mathews bows. I thought they were fine but I liked the BT better.

Yesterday I was poking around on eBay, & did a search on bows for sale, not one Bow Tech could be found, over 100 Mathews for sale. At 1st I thought it was because Mathews has been around so long but most of these bows were new, & stated as such, ***NEW 02 Legacy****

I think they found out about the new DC Pat, or the BK II.

Guess I made the right choice. Just promoting BT because I am sooo happy with my purchase. [}:)

I love my bowtech too, but try and search using bowtech you will about 8 or so.

RE: Starting a fight: Couldn't find a Bow Tech
 

Yes, there's a few (7 or 8) on there but as of yesterday there's one less...<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

I've been watching E-Bay also for a long time and since they came out, I've seen Legacy's for sale. A lot of them were advertised as new in the box or shot only a few times. I've also seen Patriots for sale but not even close to the numbers I've seen for Mathews. What I don't understand is why anyone would pay almost new price for a used bow without a warranty instead of going to a shop and getting one to fit perfectly and with a warranty. A used Patriot for $425.00 IMO would be a great buy but if you get up within $150.00 of new price on any bow, it would be best to buy new.

RE: Starting a fight: Couldn't find a Bow Tech
 

I shoot a Mathews Legacy and I love it. That said I think that many of the folks that buy a Mathews expect a bow with so much speed that your arrows catch fire...LOL. Mathews is a fine hunting bow just not the fastest. I believe that Bowtech is now making the claim that it is the fastest and it well may be. The folks selling all those Mathews bows will probably by Bowtechs. When a faster bow comes out they will sell the Bowtechs to buy the newer faster bow. These folks just want the fastest &quot;badest&quot; bow available. I think that this is absolutely wonderful as while they are rerigging and sighting in I am hunting...LOL.

RE: Starting a fight: Couldn't find a Bow Tech
 

I will most likly sell my Patriot for what might be the 2nd fastest bow on the planet next year. I will only be selling it out of neccesity(sp). But the bow I will be buying is another Patriot but this one will have one more cam on it. So I guess I fit in the description of the types of people in the earlier post.

Well, since it will have one more cam I'd be willing to bet it will also have one less idler wheel too...LOL...

RE: Starting a fight: Couldn't find a Bow Tech
 

BTS you mean you havn't seen the pic from BT R&D!!!!! Man the bow looks awesome, I have never seen anything like it, it is a bow with three limbs, the limbs on the top and middle have a BK cam on each and the limb on bottom has a recurve look to it with an idler wheel<img src=icon_smile_cool.gif border=0 align=middle>.
Man I thought you were in the know<img src=icon_smile_shock.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
I will see if I can get a pic to you but I doubt I can get to work so I guess you will just have to wait and see just like everyone else<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>...LOL...............

You mean this picture?...







Dang it took a little while to wade through all my picture files to find the one you're talking...LOL...<img src=icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_evil.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

I think this might be the wrong pic since it certainly doesn't look like the bow you've described...<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>...I guess I'll have to make a call come Mon...<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

RE: Starting a fight: Couldn't find a Bow Tech
 

Nope not it. It has VFT on the bottom and middle limbs. Reports are it had to much speed with 3 BK cams and with VFT on all 3 limbs it didn't have enough hand shock to they made the top limb in a recurve style with idler wheel so the the other bow companies don't go out of bisuness, sound like someone payed them off.<img src=icon_smile_evil.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_evil.gif border=0 align=middle>
You will see in a few weeks I suppose. Or maybe not<img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle> <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

RE: Starting a fight: Couldn't find a Bow Tech
 

I dont know if you guys know or not but our very own Pat or as he is known here BTS is an aspiring opera singer.

I have found the site that has his very first opera performance on it and I must say he done a great job even Pavoroti(sp) would have been proud of our BTS.

For those of you interested here is the link so you too can marvel at the many talents of BTS.

Be sure to have your speakers turned on. He really does have a sweeeeet voice.

Ausie-guy, I really didn't believe you when you said you'd post that...Butthead!...LOL...<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

RE: Starting a fight: Couldn't find a Bow Tech
 

Pat.

Come on buddy be proud of the job you done.
I am sure that all the guys will give you all the accolades that you deserve.

RE: Starting a fight: Couldn't find a Bow Tech
 

Only 5 on the eBay today, Bow Tech Shooter did you buy another? That Blue Pat looks pretty good.

RE: Starting a fight: Couldn't find a Bow Tech
 

All,

Another round of Congrats for Pat (BTS)...I just heard he signed a 20 year contract doing commercials for DEPENDS.

HOW 'BOUT A BIG ROUND OF APPLAUSE!!!

I always wondered why Pat would say.. &quot;gotta go to the bathroom&quot; and then just get this wierd smile on his face...

Jeff.

It looks like Pat's opera singing finally paid off with the commercial contract.

I hope he sings the commercial<img src=icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle>instead of just talking like the others do.
