NY911Bowhunter Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 I have seen a couple of posts on other sites about the new binary (hybrid cam system) of the 2005 Bowtechs - the Allegiance and Defender. Apparently speeds of 300 fps+ are easily acheived - even at moderate poundage and a 28 inch draw! Allegedly zero hand shock, smooth shooting, and great looks. These just might help put this rapidly up and coming company past Mathews for once and all. I am still not 100 percent sold on the hybrid cam systems, and REALLLLLLLLLLLY want a Mathews BAD - but these may make me look more at these when I am ready to buy another bow. I'll try to find some pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrud Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 Re: 2005 Bowtech with Binary Cam System I don't think that'll put them over Mathews. They are at the top with Mathews and Hoyt, but not at the very top yet. BowTech has used a lot of Mathews' ideas (parallel limbs) and now Hoyt's newest idea (hybrid cam). BowTech needs to have original innovations of their own to push them higher. JMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NY911Bowhunter Posted December 5, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 Re: 2005 Bowtech with Binary Cam System Good replies so far ! I agree that they are not yet on par with Hoythews (lazy typer). Last year when they released the 2 new models I was in love - but the more I think aboput a new bow - I get drawn to Mathews. I especially like the Legacy - but am looking at the LX and the Outback. So far the new Switchback does nothing for me. As with every premium bow - they all have their strong suits. ********FYI*******WARNING*********FYI****** This thread was not posted to start a debate or war about ANY bow manufacturers. Please do not reply if you intent to start a "My Dad can kick your Dad's butt" post. Follow suit of the GENTLEMEN that have already replied - Thank you.

I'll be in a toss up between the Outback and Switchback. If it's as close as I think it'll be, the speed of the Switchback might swing me.
