bighoytman Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 Athens archery I have the 32 it is smooth quite and very fast.My son is a field staff also he shoots the 34.I went with my son on a youth hunt with his bow.I was 16 feet directly under him when he shot. If I hadn't seen the limbs flex back I wouldn't have known he shot.The fit an finish is awesome.The let off is very nice when holding long time on a nice buck.I shot a deer with my 32 at 10 yards the other day he sprang side ways looking around then at his side walked 40 yards with his tail up an fell over dead.The omega rest has a feature you can lock it shut in the stand when you draw bow back rest unlocks an your ready to shoot.I have shot alot of the high end bows over the years.I think I will stay with Athens from now on great bows and excellent customer service.

SonnyThomas Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 Athens Archery is looking for National Field Staff shooters Made a reply on Elite site. I set up a Athens yesterday for this fellow shooter. Didn't look for the name, but it was a 34" and a looker for sure. Black riser and camo limbs. Setup was a breeze, no cam lean and timing looked good. Use and levels and laser and within six shots the owner had it zeroed in for 20 yards. Six more shots had 25 and 30 yds down pat. The bow was q-u-i-t-e and no stabilizer. We clocked it at 300 fps with the bow set to 69 pounds and 29" draw. We didn't weigh the arrows, but I figured around 365 gr min. The two things I didn't care for were the grip panels (would like them to blend to the riser) and it was only 34" ata (I like longer bows in the 38" class).

RE side plates, you mean you would like to see them flush? I can see that, I love a tink grip. Our Next fullsize bow will be a 37 ATA bow. We also have a youth bow coming out called the Protege' a true high quality youth bow, Machined Riser, gordon glass limbs, string stop and Americas Best strings.

Yes, a flush grip, no corners. 37" sounds good. I haven't kept a bow that had a ata of less than 35". Keep in touch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
