AJ Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 Re: most accurate Bows The most accurate bows are the ones with the most accurate shooters using them. Everyone has a different style of grip, anchor, release, etc. so you can't really come down and say one is more accurate than the other. Some can be more forgiving to your style than others, but overall, I would venture to say that just about any modern compound is capable of better accuracy than the shooter. The same goes for most guns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYBUCK Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 Re: most accurate Bows Very well put AJ. I think some more bows are definately more forgiving than others but the accuracy relies on the shooters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckslayer Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 Re: most accurate Bows We've talked about accuracy, would anyone agree with me that given mechanical shooting devices like the hooter shooter, almost all bows consistently group dead on (consistency), assuming arrows and all else equal... SOOO... I guess it does come down to the shooter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] Providing the Bow is "Setup" correctly(and for that matter even if it's not)...when shot from a mechanic device the Bow will continue to send the Arrow to the same place on the target with only a minor change as time goes by due to "String Stretch". My Bow has a nasty habit of occasionally sending Arrows to strange places...when I touch it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtnhunt Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 Re: most accurate Bows Once again, AJ has hit the nail on the head. His answer pretty well sums this up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Finn Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 Re: most accurate Bows Agree with AJ....all bows today, if properly tuned with the correct spine/size arrows, will shoot better than the average guy is capable of. My Switchback is the most accurate bow I've ever shot, but I haven't tested a ton of newer models. I'm sure Hoyt, Ross, Martin, Bowtech, PSE, and Browning bows all shoot good also.
