    Haven't we reached a stage were all grips are all modifiable with furniture that has a universal attachment standards . Your fave grip should be on any bow from any manufacturer

    Next to two log bow's, one hanter and one hoyt carbon 34 "it will be something like a grave closure of a wardrobe with arches.

    You got the flip disc backwards? Performance on inner part of the limbs is for performance mode

  • @cjr4497

    I love my Carbon Icon. I wonder how much of an improvement this bow is over it? I see the changed the grip a little and put a dampener on the bottom. That is about it. The grip was a bit square on the Icon, but am used to it.

  • @megan6228
    @megan6228 Před 2 lety

    Okay I'm new to archrey so please forgive my dumb question (lol). Why does the zion only have 2 limbs where as most others have 4 (2 up top and 2 on the bottom). I want a zion real bad as a backup bow but I feel ill be laughed at for having a bow that is not what you typically see

  • @danielcondon1607
    @danielcondon1607 Před 3 lety

    My well maintained, babied diamond liberty from 07 delaminated at half draw at the bottom axle.. too many limb issues with bowtech for me. Bit the arrow and got a v3.

  • @timkaldahl
    @timkaldahl Před 3 lety +1

    Still shooting a Carbon Overdrive from 2013. The riser is a little off, because my center shot is not parallel to the riser even though it shoots bullet holes through paper and broadhead and field points are perfectly aligned. I really can't justify a new bow unless it is super cheap. And I picked up the Overdrive for about half price used.

    • @Waty8413
      @Waty8413 Před 3 lety

      There are a multiple factors that can attribute to your bow shooting well when not perfectly center shot. This is not abnormal and usually has more to do with cam lean and shooting form/grip than actual flaws in the bow. Every bow I have owned has tuned best for me with my arrow rest set up so that the arrow points slightly left. That includes Hoyt, Bowtech, and Bear bows.

    • @troywesterbur706
      @troywesterbur706 Před 3 lety

      I just bought the carbon. They both shoot almost exactly the same. But the lighter bow is what sold me. Plus I don’t need to adjust it. I’m not growing or building arm strength. If I didn’t hunt out west or shot mostly targets I might have saved a little money and went the other way. But after 10 miles in Colorado a pound makes a difference. Just my 2 cents.

  • @Waty8413
    @Waty8413 Před 3 lety +1

    Bowtech needs a complete redesign on the carbon risers. The knight/Icon/Zion riser is a tired design and there are so many similar Bowtech/Diamond carbon riser bows out there that you are probably better off buying used and saving a few bucks than buying a rehashed design just because the cams look a little different. Bowtech should have made a new carbon riser for the Amplify and maybe used the same riser on a more expensive bow with high end features.

    • @Shadow0fd3ath24
      @Shadow0fd3ath24 Před 2 lety

      Why would they? The Zions 1+lb lighter, better looking, and has less vibrations and shock than other composite bows for $200+ less and sells a lot more at shops also. Everyone else with carbon bows are 33+ ATA, bad brace height/silly design limbs for and the same or lower IBO speed and more money than these, or are trying to have too many things going on at once and sacrifice too much. These are as smooth as anything else too. Theres not much they can do anymore. Bows technology has hit a performance plateau big time everywhere except in crossbows

  • @jimschmitt650
    @jimschmitt650 Před 3 lety

    Personally I’d stay away from any Bowtech carbon riser bow. Check out the video I posted on CZcams about my Carbon Overdrive. The riser has warped making in practically useless, at the very least dangerous.

  • @PatchedRoundBall
    @PatchedRoundBall Před 3 lety

    Just FYI, this info is BACKWARDS about the FlipDisc.
    Per the Bowtech Manual:
    If you want the "Performance" setting, it should say "Performance" on the INNER SIDE of limb, NOT the Top/Outer side as he says in the video.
    Same with the "Comfort" setting. To achieve this it should say "Comfort" on INNER SIDE of Limbs.
    Hope this helps.-

    • @PatchedRoundBall
      @PatchedRoundBall Před 3 lety +1

      @UCLodeISZGq7rmkz83PdsCBw Correct. I also just looked up the Amplify. So both models have "Flip Disc" but 2 different versions. Who says the internet is just fighting? Together we figured it out!
