Ross Bows
 

I was looking at the Ross line of bows at the pro shop the other day. How many models do they make? I went to there web site and just saw the Cardiac. The one I saw at the shop was a 31 inch bow. Is there bow line just 1 bow model? Also for those of you who own a Ross are you pleased with it?

RE: Ross Bows
 

We sell Ross at the shop. They are great bows. I believe they make.....4 models, but I may be mistaken. The Cardiac is their speed bow, IBO speeds 320. I was messing w/ one and couldn't get that out of it, IBO legal. But, they are some of the absolute sweetest shooting bows I've shot. DEAD quiet and no shock whatsoever.

If I didn't shoot and love Bowtech, I would be shooting a Ross. I really like how they shoot and how they feel in my hand.

thanks guys

RE: Ross Bows
 

I currently own two Ross bows. The CR331 which is the one you saw and the Cardiac. Ive shot bowtech before I bought my Ross's. Like mentioned before they are super smooth, great shooting and very quiet bows. They use to offer four models. The CR331, CR334, CR337 and the Cardiac. For this year they are offering the Cardiac in a 31" axle to axle model, a 33" and a 37". Suprisingly the Cardiac is smoother and more shock free than the CR line they had. Someone mentioned before that they couldnt get the advertised 320 out of a Cardiac. Mine is set at 72lbs with a 29" draw shooting a 375 grain arrow at 300fps. Thats with string loop, peep and string silencers. I you do the math its right at 320 IBO.

RE: Ross Bows
 

they're making a 37" cardiac - sweeeeeeet. the 337 i shot was sooooo smoooooooooth.

RE: Ross Bows
 

Awesome bows!

RE: Ross Bows
 

They are sweet shooters, that's for sure.



As long as you're right handed.

RE: Ross Bows
 

I am seriously considering a Ross for next year. Now to just find a dealer near me.

RE: Ross Bows
 

I forgot to mention, they are also offering a short draw cam for the cardiac this year. It is suppose to optimize the draw force for shorter draw lengths.

RE: Ross Bows
 

the SD cam gets 318fps at 28" draw... NICE

ya, I love my ross also... simply nothing more i could ask for in a bow...

RE: Ross Bows
 

SevenMag,
Where did you here the speed rating on the SD cam. I havent heard anything about it myself.

RE: Ross Bows
 

one of the guys over on the ross forum called and spoke to 'em about it, listed a number of stats from this years lineup.... here's the link....

RE: Ross Bows
 

Thanks SevenMag. I was thinking about getting an SD cardiac for my wife, not to sure about the shorter brace height though.

RE: Ross Bows
 

Well like everyone else has said,it's a great bow.It comes with Winner choice strings,a great vibration dampening system,its quiet and smooth.I got mine back in August and took a nice 8 pt and a doe.My hunting buddies shot mine and they could'nt believe how nice it was.
Get you one,you wont regret it.good luck

they are really nice. We have a dealer here in geauga county, thats about 2 hours rybo

RE: Ross Bows
 

an update. They are only going to be making the Cardiac this year but in 4 different ATA's . They are no longer going to be using WC strings either. My friend a Ross dealer has a 37 Cardiac on order, should be a sweeeeet shooter.

RE: Ross Bows
 

I really like the Cardiac, the RH one I shot, but I should be able to put in a full review of a lefty, later this week. After I put it through the paces.

RE: Ross Bows
 

4 different ATA's??? I'd heard only the 31/33/37's... each available with the SD cam... what's the 4th ATA you speak of???

true about the WC strings, they (ross) were quoted as having quality control inconsistencies from WC and opted to go to G5 strings this year, personally I suspect that it had something to do with Bear using WC string on the truth2 bow this year and there was a conflict of interest or something goin on... who knows about them other than G5's other stuff has been proven to be top notch quality wise, I'd imagine that G5 strings should match the quality of their other components... time will tell...

RE: Ross Bows
 

SevenMag, Im guessing that Ross going to G5 strings has nothing to do with Bear archery using WC, my guess is that they are using G5 string because G5 does alltheir cams and such. Makes sense having one company do everything for you instead of dealing with multiple ones.

RE: Ross Bows
 

my thinking was that Bear, being the much larger company, made WC sign an exclusive for oem strings... it wouldn't be the first time somethin like that has happened that's for sure... then ross comes out and says quality control problems are the reason for the switch... sounds to convenient ya know??? but ya i hear what you are sayin...

RE: Ross Bows
 

Sevenmag, I heard they were going to be making 31, 33, 35, 37 cardiacs this year.

RE: Ross Bows
 

31 33 and 37



no 35
