Hey Bowtech Shooter,

Can you list the let-off's for the new line up. I didn't see them listed in the specs.

Also, another question, I haven't shot a dual cam bow in about 7 or 8 years. Now with newer cable and string technology are these systems as prone to come out of timing as they were back then, meaning does the decreased stretching of the string and cable help prevent this? I did notice they Patriot Dually has got cable adjustments, do they use some kind of a timing mark to help line things up?

thanks,
Toby

Does BowTech measure their bow speed the way the bows are pictured with string silencers on them?

I'm pretty sure Bowtech and every other bow mfgr. measures speed with nothing on the string....

That's what I think too, but something to think about is what BowTech_Shooter said in another post:

&quot;VibraBlocks and Hush Kits are standard for 2003...&quot;

So my question is if this is standard, does BowTech measure their speed with these on their bows?

It says in the brouchere that all speeds are obtained with nothing on the string. Also states that all dual cams are 65% let-off, Infinity cam is adjustable 65%-80%. and the wheely is either 65% or 80%. Man this brouchere sure comes in handy!! HUh BTS... I Can't wait to shell out the cash for the dual cam Patriot!!

What are the speeds of the bows the way they are selling them with VibraBlocks and Hush Kits installed from the factory? Do you loose alot of speed with them installed?

If the BK2 is 350 fps without them what is the actual speed of the bow the way they are selling it?

If I am wrong that they are not selling their bows with
VibraBlocks and Hush Kits installed from the factory I apologize in advance.

Thanks

Trespassin, I read some where that the hushkit and vibra block are engineered so as only to take a few fps away. The vibrablock and hush kit come standard on every bow, except the Rascal.

65% let-off on the dual Pat<img src=icon_smile_dissapprove.gif border=0 align=middle>. I thought it was 75%. So thats where some of the speed comes from. I am shooting with 80% now, and love it for hunting. That 65% may just kill the deal for me.
