Default New Bow

Was looking to replace my Mathews FX and did so. Shot the new BowTech Destroyer 350. Wow what a bow. So smooth, no vibration, bow stays perfectly balanced after shot. Couldn't pass on it.

First hunt will be August 15, Black bear in Canada. Am I allowed to be excited already????

I liked my Mathews a lot, shot many deer with it. I have a buddy that swears by-em. My brother went to Bow Tech a few yrs ago. Have been impressed with it. IMHO they are all about the same when you get to the top of any of the major brands. They all are fast and accurate. The no vibration and no sound sold me.

You will love the Bow Tech... I have a 2005 Allegiance and just love that bow... I have had other bows and they lasted about a year and I would go get something else.. Not the Bow Tech..

As far as being excited --- Hell Yeah.... Get out there and practice!...

Where in Canada? Sak..??

My brother shoots an Allegiance. He loves it. Couldn't believe how quiet it was when he got it.

Ontario is where the Bear hunt is. About 125 miles north of Sault Ste Marie. Half way haven is where the camp will be.

For now I will be shooting in the apartment. I can get an 18 yard shot in through the dining room, hallway and living room. It has been my shooting range since I was forced to move to Chicago.

Nice pickup! The new bows have absolutely floored me. i am really wanting to try an Elite personally, but the Bowtechs seem solid.

I am sure loving my z7. By far the best I have shot. Shot a few deer and pigs with it so far this year. It shoots way better than I do.
