Z7 or DESTROYER ???

[BrandonWatts]

i shot the z7 too it was a great bow the only thing that got me was the destroyer had more speed not much more just enough to make me pick the destroyer.

Which one has the least amount of hand torque?  I wonder how many more animals will be lost due to individuals not see where there shot hits.  I was shooting the Reezen and could never see the arrow in flight until it hit the target, but if your shoot at 40 yards and there is a haze to the air, you may never see where the arrow hits on your animal.  They almost need to allow aluma nocks now with the speed bows, so individuals can see there shots.

Are you shooting with both eyes open?  I have no problem seeing my arrows in flight in the 290fps range.

I could see them also when I was in the 290 fps.  Then I jumped into the 315 fps and lost sight of them.

Something to think about.  Better to utilize that power to shoot a heavier arrow I suppose.

I shot the Z7 on Tuesday and I shot the Destroyer today.  The Destroyer felt a lot better to shoot.  The only bad thing the rep stated on the Destroyer is if you draw back and then have to slowly realease the bow back to the non-drawn position some guys are jumping the string off the flat portion of the cam as they end up twisting it as they go back to the non-drawn position.  Just something to think about.  A very nice bow though.  It shot really well.

Bump so I can find that program easier.

I went and shot the Z7 again then the Destroyer 340 & 350 to be certain.  I went with the Destroyer 350.  They could upgrade the handle, but other than that it's a great bow.

I wasn't totally thrilled with the stock grip on my 350, so I replaced it with a Torqueless Grip (www.torqueless.com).  Made a huge difference.

I'd like to see a pic of that grip on the bow.  Can you post one?

I'll take some pics and get them posted soon, but in the meantime here's the same, exact grip (from the torquless.com website):

I agree Blkbr.  Plus if your deployed you can get a fully set up top of the line bow for $500 bucks.  I believe Fire4effect from here took advantage of that deal when he was looking for a bow.

Sometime ago on this thread I said I would post a pic of the Torqueless grip on my Destroyer.  I finally got around to doing it.  BTW, any Destroyer 340/350 owners out there, I have the same grip, but in in a medium wrist style for sale.  I switched to a low wrist style a month or so ago.  Also, fyi a good read on gripping a bow and wrist styles see http://www.bowsite.com/bowsite/features/practical_bowhunter/grip/index.htm .

Looks nice.  Sent you a PM.  How are you liking the Destroyer?  I love mine!
