Buckslayer Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 I don't think this one made it here yet... if so, sorry for posting but this gets me excited for mid-winter!!! Ok, here we go... A buddy of mine has just informed me that some new bows have made it to hunting.net and AT . I just saw that some guys already posted the Hoyt info... But also, apparently, a magazine accidentally printed an 07 Bowtech ad!!! This bow is called the "Guardian"... I want one bad - looks like a sweet new design for a bow!!! Check out this link: Guardian! on hunting.net Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TBryan Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 Re: 07 BowTech... Accidental Release!!! It does look pretty sweet. Wonder what its gonna cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckslayer Posted October 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 Re: 07 BowTech... Accidental Release!!! I'm gonna guarantee its between $700 and $1000... well... actually thats just a very educated guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bownarow Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 Re: 07 BowTech... Accidental Release!!! That is the worst looking bow I have ever seen. Talk about making things complicated. Too many things that could fail at the moment of truth IMO. That thing sure is crazy lookin! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switchback29A1 Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 Re: 07 BowTech... Accidental Release!!! that thing isnt that good looking....extra pieces attached to the limbs?

Buckslayer Posted October 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 Re: 07 BowTech... Accidental Release!!! I'm just a BowTech fan... so I guess thats why I'm pumped ... I don't have a problem with any other bows or brands.... I just like new innovation and engineering marvels, that's all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAbowhunter4life Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 Re: 07 BowTech... Accidental Release!!! I'll be 100% honest. I am not a Bowtech fan by any means, but that being said, I think the Tribute is one heck of a bow and is by far the best offering on the table to date. Now, THAT being said lol, they have definitely taken a step in the wrong direction IMO. All I know is that thing better be FAST for as ugly as it is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAbowhunter4life Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 Re: 07 BowTech... Accidental Release!!! Found this on another website....................... This is the scoop: The Center Limb Pivot System is supposed to eliminate uneeded stress on the limbs caused by limb twist and such. It also is supposed to eliminate uneeded limb travel making the bow quieter and totally dead in the hands! IBO speeds somewhere near 330fps with split limb design. Take it for what its worth, that is from a Bowtech Team Shooter! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinwheel5 Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 Re: 07 BowTech... Accidental Release!!! I just don't know? Guess I will have to shoot it first. So far my bet is on the new Hoyts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leo Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 Re: 07 BowTech... Accidental Release!!! My guess is if it shoots well, is quiet and fast. You'll see alot more of this "UGLY" bow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckslayer Posted October 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 Re: 07 BowTech... Accidental Release!!! I just saw on archerytalk that BowTech's other new bow is the "Commander". And that either the guardian or the commander will be able to hit 350 fps..! Has anyone seen pics of the Commander? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdvantageTimberLou Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 Re: 07 BowTech... Accidental Release!!! I seen it yesterday, we all seem to comment on the riser design, pretty wild isn't it!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckslayer Posted October 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 Re: 07 BowTech... Accidental Release!!! The Guardian is Wild! I have yet to see the commander, but want to soooo bad... I just haven't seen any pics of it... can anyone help a BowTech Brotha out???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Commander is rated at 37.25" ATA, 7.5" BH and between 315-318 fps. A Bowtech rep himself said the 350 fps bow was just a rumor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MuZZyMomentZ Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 Re: 07 BowTech... Accidental Release!!! I don't necessarily think that the bow is ugly. I think that new innovative concepts and designs are useful in ANY field. Be it the deer woods or computer technology. I myself am a Hoyt shooter and I probably won't reinvest in something new. However, I personally like the new looks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckslayer Posted October 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 Re: 07 BowTech... Accidental Release!!! Ok, saw the recent post saying 330fps for the guardian... Thanks for the info PAbowhunter! I read that you can work on the bow without a press, by loosening the limb bolts from the riser, they pivot inward, relaxing the string...

I read the same thing . Seems like a lot of bow companies are offering that option these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
