I have a bowtech now but it's 10 years old...great bow, but too slow so looking to buy one this summer. I'm either going to stay with a BT or go to Matthews. Quailhnter, great looking bow...if you don't mind tell me why you went with BT Experience...other than you don't like the local dealer, or is that the main reason? Any other thoughts for someone that hasn't looked into bows in 10 years?

thanks

well for me the dealer was most of the reason at first but now that I've shot the bowtech I'm hooked. All I've ever heard from my Mathews shooting buddies was the bowtech (and every other bow that's not a mathews) is very unforgiving and poorly made. I completely disagree. I love my new bow and I'm now a bowtech man.

Your whole setup is a joke..... nocternals are the worst lighted nock on the market.. lumanocks are better... That bow could be the worst bowtech invention ever... that thing is so loud do you wake up all of your nehabiors at night when you shoot??? Highly inaccurate.. very bad draw cycle.. worst cam lean I have ever seen! That was a really dumb move on your part... I hope you make better decisions than this in your future... I know another guy who shoots the same bow And he's a homo!

Angry little man. I guess we agree to disagree. By the way if you're going to attempt to talk shucks at least learn how to spell. If you don't like my post then don't respond. Btw if this bow is highly inaccurate i should be shooting on tv with Levi Morgan bc I'm that f/ing good with it. Have a great day. Douche!

Quailhunter, congrats on your new bow! I used to shoot BowTechs and I think their awesome bows. I've been shooting a Hoyt for a few years but I'd shoot a BT in a heartbeat!! Especially the Experience!!

I see you're from Mobile Co. My brother-n-law (lives in Mobile) bought a Mathews bow last year and the Mathews' dealership (in Mobile area) didn't even measure his draw length. He's about 6'4" with at least a 30" draw and they had him in like a 28.5". He's not a experienced bow hunter and he just didn't know any better. They just sold him an already rigged bow and got him out the door! Pissed me off at that dealership would do that and I can't remember their name. I guess it's the only Mathews dealership in the Mobile area. Buyer beware and you're validating my belief about that bowshop. You don't sell a man a bow without measuring his draw length!

Thanks i appreciate the comments. If rather not say the dealer name but yes there's only one Mathews dealer in mobile. I hate that happened to your b.i.l. Had he changed out the cam and string yet?

I started a new thread about my experience before I realized this thread was about the experience. Best shooting bow I've ever held and I buy a new bow or 2 every year. No expert but I really like mine and its very forgiving. Makes a mediocre shooter like myself look pretty good.

No big deal. I'm very pleased with mine. I shot my 3d target today and from 70 yards i took 3 shots and put all 3 in the heart. I'm busting up nocturnals, fletchings, and arrows. This is definitely the best feeling bow I've ever shot.

Josht101! Did you say you spent a grand on that bow? Just wondering bc I didn't spend that much. Was that the price of just the bow?

No I actually got a really good deal on mine. But I have a friend that runs a local archery shop and he sold it to me for 1000 with ripcord rest, axcel protech armor hd sight, g5 titanium peep, bowtech wrist strap, doinker stabilizer. He did show me the msrp tag that was 999, but I didn't pay that bare bow

how are you going to tell someone what bow they need? you cant even spell. you act and write like a fourth grade child, and i directly oppose everything you said. if you dont have anything nice to say then why dont you keep that trap shut?

sounds good. I already had a trophy ridge react sight, qad ultra test hdx, and nap stabilizer. I feel like i got a pretty good deal on mine I paid $850 No tax. Glad to hear you got one. Good luck this season with it. I ONLY bowhunt so i should get plenty of use out of mine. I'm going to Kansas fire the first time this year on a hunt so I'm really pumped about that.

sweet looking rig quailhnter. i have been wanting to shoot one of those new bowtechs since the invasion came out. but the dealers i went to didn't have any and didn't know when they would get one in. so i went with something else. i am happy with what i have though. hope you kill a pile of deer with it congrats.
