For those who have shot this bow, does it still provide the just sit's there in your hand with no vibration/handshock/recoil?

My wallet's getting nervous... :)

The defender has much the same feel after the shot as my Patriot. Although to be honest I felt a little "buzz" in my hand after the shot. BUT the bow only had a rest on it. No stabilizer or any other vibration control gadgets[8D]

It was a sweet shooter. It was hitting the bag with authority!

Rangeball you better stay at home if you value your cash. The bow I shot was really solid and very quiet. I like it better than my Outback.

Uh Oh... I REALLY liked the way the outback drew, held/aimed and shot. Add a bit of valley to it and I'm in trouble...

You guys that have shot the new E cam(s). Pound for Pound of draw weight, do they feel like they are easier to draw? For example, compared to the I and N cam bowtechs at 70#s, do they feel easier, like you could draw more than 70#s for the same perceived effort?

I would be interested in how they draw compared to the duallies? Pro 40 DC for example.

seen a bowtech dealer about the allegience and he told me it has a solid wall and is smooth to draw---but it has to be ordered to your draw length specs due to no modules on this bow.he told me he shot it at 29 in at ibo and he got 299 fps.he said he thought it was quiter than his patriot.he said its not a two cam or a cam and 1/2.looks like one of the cams had some markings on it where the draw stop would be but not much to play with.i wanted to shot it but about 2 1/2 in to long for me. i really wouldnt get a good feel for the bow at that draw length.it listed for 699.00.i priced the new mathews switchback at 719.00

I shot a 70# alliegance last week as well. It was smokin fast and smooth as silk. I shot several shots through it and thought that it was possibly one of the easiest pulling 70#s I ever pulled. It was actually like 71.5 lbs. To do a little bit of testing on the ease of pull I shot a couple other bows that were in the shop also. All we had @ 70#'s was an extreme and a relfex with the cam.5 system. Both of the other two felt about 8 lbs heavier. I with we had a freedom cam at that weight to compare to but we were out.

The alliegance feels a little bit like a freedom cam, but more constant. Almost like a reverse recurve. It gets easier as you pull. It is stout at first but it seems to start letting up really early.

Bowtech has some new info on their site also

Get out and try one of these bows. They are awesome.;)

I pulled the alliegance at 71.5 #'s and then the Extreme (I cam) at 71.5 #'s and the Extreme almost felt like 80 #'s. Of course that is just my opinion. Get out there and shoot one. Leave your wallet at home;)

Of course, it feels a lot like the patriot. As far as the shot itself. After all it is a VFT:)

I have to say that the more and more I keep reading about this Equalizer cam system the more and more I am getting excited about trying it. The draw cycle and shot feel is probably more important to me than other aspects of the cam but it will be interesting to see the cam's potential nock travel and possible timing issues.

I just love it when a new product hits the market.:)
