Who is thinking about upgrading bows this year???

I shot the bowtech invasion for 2011, not sure about 2012 yet. Its always exciting when new bows are released. I have allot of video reviews coming up, ATA show next week busy busy Jan & Feb.

I will be shooting a bowtech, Elite,PSE, Strother or Mathews not sure yet. Time will tell. What bow are you looking at for 2012?

NOT ME!!!!! I finally found that bow I can't let go of or even think about upgrading because I don't see anything out there that would be an upgrade to my Dream Season Evo!!!! If I ever did anything it would be getting newer model of the Dream Season Evo!!! Best hunting and all around bow I have ever put my hands on or tried!!!

Picked up a New Breed Eclipse last week. If you havent had the chance to shoot a New Breed Bow you really should shoot one. Smoothest drawing, dead in hand accurate bows I have ever owned. I have a 37 in Cyborg and now a 35 inch Eclipse.. I shot Bowtechs forever but these really changed my mind..

I just can't justify spending the cash on new,but I will get a new to me bow every 2-3 years that has had good reviews and can be found low mileage for good price.New to me is a 2 year old bow.

I love my Mathews Outback, but I have the itch... Thinking about getting a Z7 extreme...

Don't know. Hard to put down something that performs and kills soooooo well...

Mathews ran out of ideas this year, in my opinion. Bowtech new leader.

Invasion is still new, but if I get a second bow this year I like the specs on that Insanity XL.

I shot one doe with mine this year after having it two years. I'm addicted and want a faster one. I look at it as having a shot gun keeping it and buying a new one but they cost so much.
