RE: Bowtech Old Glory
So the rumor is true! Someone on AT posted Len had an Old Glory. Len, I sure am interested in your opinion of this bow since I have ordered one sight unseen. Do have any idea on delivery time for anodized riser in 27.5 draw?

I got to shoot an Allegiance yesterday. It is everything I'd expected, and hoped for. 60#, 28" shot a 330 gr arrow 286. Draw length is very close (didn't measure) to spot on. Everyone that shot it was extremely impressed. I have an Old Glory ordered. Now to decide between the Allegiance and Defender for a hunting bow.

RE: Bowtech Old Glory
I as well got to shot an allegiance for the first time yesterday. I was really impressed. I did measure the draw length and it was dead on; 29" was a true 29" AMO. Shot felt great, even from a bare bow with no stab, and it was quiet too. I liked the feel of the draw curve.
That being said, I did see a very slight bit of cam lean when the bow was at rest, and then at full draw it was very definitely noticeable. What that means in the long run I'm not certain, but it was there, and there's no way to get rid of it since there's no yokes.
I've had a constituion on order for over a month, and I'm itching to pull the trigger on an Old Glory, but I'm hesitant to fully switch over to this unproven cam. Decisions, decisions.

Sorry I did not respond sooner Len but conferences and a finicky computer have been making it difficult for me to hit the forums as well as my email.
I look forward to seeing some more of your comments in regard to the bow and the cams in the near future.
