magnatecsteve Posted March 25, 2011 Report Share Posted March 25, 2011 Up in Wisconsin this past weekend and stopped in to a Gander Mtn. They were having a 40% off sale for remodeling. They had a Ross bow marked down plus 40% off, came out to $250!! I tried like heck to talk the wife into it, but we just blew a grand on a weekend in the Dells...:jaw: The archery rep said that Andy already pulled away from Bowtech and that the Bowtech/Ross bows were going cheap. Dangit...woulda loved to have that bow. I shoot a CR337 which I love, but its just a tad long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m gardner Posted March 25, 2011 Report Share Posted March 25, 2011 I'm hope he's going to be making bows again on his own. They were of very high quality. When he went with Bowtech I was reluctant to buy one (having had two bad back to back experiences with their product) and have been shooting my old CR 337. I'm giddy.:toot: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ravin R10 man Posted March 25, 2011 Report Share Posted March 25, 2011 if I may be a smart".." you just blew 1k on her at a resort town that isnt open and you had to pass up a new bow "ON SALE" for only 250 Yup that was a fair deal...jmo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUTNSTRUT Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 For what it's worth Andy actually has very little to do with the business now. They are back and on the right path, with a new owner and management. andy is more of a familiar face ad the name than anything. I have always loved the pre-Bowtech Ross bows, I still own 3. Their new bow the Crave is a sweet bow and I will be getting one soon. They are committed to CS and will warranty any of the pre Bowtech Ross made bows. That right there says a lot about the new owners committment. Check them out at www.rossarchery.com I have absolutely no affiliation with the company other than loving their bows.

Straight Shooter Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 I'm glad that ROSS is going back to making their own bows. I've got four Cardiac 33" and love them. I will be keeping these bows for a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magnatecsteve Posted March 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 The Gander was about a half hour north of Milwaukee. Im sure Andy does have someone else doing alot of the business end for him now, that's what alot of people do when they get a name for them and theyre off hunting, promoting, whatever... I do love my Ross bow, never a lick of problem with it. As far as the wife, well..I did get a new .223 Savage for X-mas, another longbow last summer, a few dozen arrows, stuff for the Harley, gettin my buck European mount done....

Jeramie Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 They are great bows. I found a local shop clearing them out a few years ago here. I picked up a CR334 and ended up selling it to a friend that night. The next day I went back and picked up the cardiac. Both are pre-bowtech. Sweet, sweet bows!

hoosierhunter Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Hopefully his bows are better than his TV show which sucks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
