I don't shoot matthews. I have owned about ever company bow. Donthe like hoyt either. Bowtech is by far the worst. Terrible draw cycles, terrible back wall. I finally came to my senses and switched over to elite.

I shoot the carbon icon and it's smoooooth, the whole draw cycle. Had a guy at the range shoot mine, he dislikes Bowtech, he now owns one... They're not all bad.

I shoot a bear arena 30 and a Bowtech RPM 360. They are both very smooth and quiet bows to be as fast as they are. I have shot every bow put out by the big 4 companies in the last 5-6 years. IMO the best overall bow was the Bowtech Experience hands down.

That's whats so good about there being so many different companies. Different strokes for different folks.

Re: New bowtech countdown - 01/08/16 12:14 AM

Archery addict for over 35 years, I am not brand loyal as I shoot most all brands every year. With that being said Bowtechs are my personal favorite, I've robin hooded more arrows with them than all other brands combined. They shoot awesome for me and in over 10 years of shooting them thousands of shots I have never had a limb failure or any other issue. I just got home from the ATA and their new flagship bow is the BT-X, it has the powerdisc cam and new for 2016 it has an adjustment wheel on the cam to tweak cam sync without a press. Bow drew and shot well, very quiet and dead on the shot. My favorite thing is the fact that they did away with the carbon grip and went back to the wood sideplates.

Blowtech's are great bows. I know a guy that gets a fresh set of limbs for his all the time.

Re: New bowtech countdown - 01/08/16 12:24 AM

FullPotential, i know 2 guys that have major limb issues out of their BowTech's. These guys have shot BT's for years and are always get the newest ones out, plus new limbs for their previous bows and reselling them.

Sounds like you shoot as much as these 2 guys I'm talking about, but you've had zero issues. Are you a speed freak with your bow or do you shoot a heavier arrow? I believe that's these guys problem, they shoot super light arrows and brag about their FPS. IMO, they are part of the problem, but if you're shooting light arrows with no issues, then I'm still confused.

I'm still shooting the same bowtech since 2004.....no issues at all. I shoot about 6-7 grains per pound.

I'll be looking at a BT Prodigy soon to see how it shoots.

Re: New bowtech countdown - 01/08/16 10:10 PM

I shoot medium weight to heavier arrows,Easton FMJ, Gold Tip Kinetic and Victory VAPS. My dealer is one of the top Bowtech dealers in the state and hes one of those guys that will drop any company or product that he has many issues with. He has replaced very few Bowtech limbs and Bowtech is his # 1 seller. I have been told that with their beyond parallel limbs that the majority of all limb issues are the result of improperly pressing them, you only want to press them just enough to get the string/cables loose.

You used to se a lot of Bowtechs on the 3d shooting ranges, but today you don't see many at all. It would be nice to see them start showing up again.

I shot an Addy for 5 years and didn't have a minutes trouble from it.....wish I still had it. Full disclosure: I have a Prodigy now and it's the smoothest (3 setting) vib free bow I've ever shot. But....,I did have a limb split and got them all replaced for $50. Not a problem since and I'm just now getting my confidence back in it as far as durability.

Did you buy the Prodigy new or used? IIRC,they just came out in 2015. Thanks.

I bought from off of Archery Talk back in August. The guy had had it since March. I got it with a QAD Ultra Rest for $800 shipped. Even with the limb failure, I only have $850 in it.
