my guess would be Martin as well.

Phoenix rising. Well done.

Yeah, they are doing some good things!  I like the new motto/catch phrase. The fire is out - The passion still burns

Hope the "Me" has been removed from E.O. and replaced with the proper C.  That was the only thing stopping me from getting behind the new company this past year.  Will be nice to have a great NW bow company again.  Especially since the other one is about to get burned!
He asked, Do you ever give a short simple answer?  I replied, "Nope."

Enquiring minds just want to know: What is it with the obsession about Bowtech?  I only know the smallest bit about bows, and nothing of the various firms.  But I often see comments disparaging Bowtech.  Perhaps a separate thread is required, but for the sake of those who are not in the know, could you (you all) briefly explain the issue(s)?

And I might as well ask why the previous "great NW bow company" no longer is.

Bowtechs are great bows.  D rock just hates on them cause he shoots some other over priced brand and like most archers, he thinks the gear he uses is the only gear that works.
And Martin the bow company burned down awhile back.  Sounds like they are rebuilding.

Do a search of broken bows, or limbs and you will find more info/pics of broken Bowtechs than any other brand. Ill let these do the talking. I only searched for less then two minutes.

I shoot a lot of shoots every year and have seen more bowtech walk off a course in pieces than all other bows combined.  Yeah they do shoot good I'll give them that but I'll never buy one.

OK, I think I get it.  So it is an issue of product quality, right (not design or engineering, but manufacturing)?  Thanks for the insights, all.

That's it.  It like the Chevy vs ford debate. We all know Chevy is better but people still buy Ford's.
