There are lots of aftermarket dippers dipping in predator these days. I think if any of the major bow companies picked up Predator they would sell alot of bows in that camo scheme.

RE: BowTech Staffers..time to get on the ball..
 

I have already expressed my affinity for the predator pattern, and was summarily chastised.

RE: BowTech Staffers..time to get on the ball..
 

That thing looks amazing!

RE: BowTech Staffers..time to get on the ball..
 

That looks cool!

RE: BowTech Staffers..time to get on the ball..
 

I've seen that on a couple bows over at AT. Looks great, that's for sure!

RE: BowTech Staffers..time to get on the ball..
 

I bet there is a really good reason that this hasn't happened yet. Aside from that thought, ya, it's freaking cool looking and I'd order it.[8D]

RE: BowTech Staffers..time to get on the ball..
 

I might even lean toward a bow in that camo if I was vascillating between two manufacturers but I'm sure there is some kind of cost issue for them to pay Predator vs. what they're paying for lame-ass blobbed out camo like Realtree. They were already charging $50 extra for the Max4 when I got my Old Glory, I'd hate to see what they'd charge for something like the Predator, you'd be able to get it dipped for that much...

RE: BowTech Staffers..time to get on the ball..
 

Yeah bowtech already charges $50 to change from the realtree CRAPPY camo to something else. sorta stupid I think but just my opinion

RE: BowTech Staffers..time to get on the ball..
 

The upcharge is a given, c'mon guys- do I need to explain the enconomy of scale as it relates to riser dipping? At least you have a CHOICE of several with BT. Not many manufacturers give you a choice of camo these days. Does Mathews? Hoyt? Martin? PSE?

That said, I'd like to see the Predator as a choice, and I don't think $50 is a bad deal at all if thats what you really want and don't mind waiting for it.

Vic- good to see ya buddy! you keep fighting the camo fight on our behalfs! P.S. You ever hook up with the host (hostess? bwahaha) at that steak restaurant on subsequent trips to the ATA?????? (inside joke-we'll see if he and the other BT guys remember))

RE: BowTech Staffers..time to get on the ball..
 

LMAO! Pat sent me a text as soon as he got to Indy that Serge had asked about me. So, um yeah....people still remember.

Good to see you back! Get this place hoppin' again.

RE: BowTech Staffers..time to get on the ball..
 

OMG thats too freaking funny! I can't believe that's still a running joke after 5 years or whatever.

EDIT- and thanx for the welcome back , bro! Hope you are doing well! P.S. It cracks me up that Vic has been a member here as long as I have, I've lost 4 years worth of posts and Vic is still a "fork horn". [8D]

RE: BowTech Staffers..time to get on the ball..
 

I've also expressed my interest in Predator, but I took it one step further.

Here's my BowTech Airborne 82nd!!;)

Actually Rob from talking to the dippers I deal with Predator is very easy to work with compared to Realtree and Mossy Oak.

I've been told several times they are a bit of a pain[8D]

RE: BowTech Staffers..time to get on the ball..
 

ha! Awesome Bro!

RE: BowTech Staffers..time to get on the ball..
 

Both my 07 Commander and 08 101st were "upcharge" camo. The shop that I deal with never passed it on due the volume they do. BUT, that said, I was fully ready to pay it. I don't find it a problem that they do this. Like JeffB already stated, how many companies give you 13 different finish options. That is 9 different camos and 4 targets. Including Optifade this year, which by the way will look sick with black accessories. Do I like predator, ya, but I can count my blessings. On top of that they offer the new Air Raid in Advantage Timber so that is a 10th camo, if you're keeping track at home.;)

RE: BowTech Staffers..time to get on the ball..
 

You don't EVEN wanna know how many times I've suggested that... ;)

Ask Pat or Matt about our NEW experience at the Ram last year... I think the poor waiter/waitress-whatever-he-is is STILL in therapy. :D:D(But we got like $50 of free appetizers and desserts out of the deal!!! [8D])

RE: BowTech Staffers..time to get on the ball..
 

Greg sort of beat me to it. I know the issue of Predator or one of the other open patterns as a camo option has bounced around the email network repeatedly. I believe the "powers that be" have been approached about the subject but something always stops it from coming to fruition.

Admittedly, I am not one of the open-pattern proponents but I have to agree that it does look striking on bows.

RE: BowTech Staffers..time to get on the ball..
 

Funny you said that...I texted Vic from the show in Indy this year to tell him that Serge says Hi and that hemisses him and his muscular physique...;)[8D]:D


BTW, I got your e-mail and I will call you soon now that I'm just about caught up from the show...


Ooops...I didn't read Vic's post until after I posted...And aboutwhat Greg said...I'll have to be sure to tell you about it when we talk...Funny stuff...;)

RE: BowTech Staffers..time to get on the ball..
 

Especially Serge...;):D

RE: BowTech Staffers..time to get on the ball..
 

Rock n' Roll bro! whenever you get some (much needed I'm sure) downtime

RE: BowTech Staffers..time to get on the ball..
 

Gottta admit the predator camo does look grand on that bow. It would take me at least two to three attempts before actually getting her hung at a tree stand. :D

RE: BowTech Staffers..time to get on the ball..
 

That bow looks awesome! Speaking of dipping, what are some reputable dippers I could send some parts to?

RE: BowTech Staffers..time to get on the ball..
 

I get a lot of smaller items dipped for guys, cams, rests, stabilizers, etc. I usually have a load going out every couple of weeks. PM me if you need any details.
