I'm real happy with mine . Been shooting trophy takers for years and decided to try something new and I'm real impressed with the code red. I'm going to serve the rope into the string and do away with the little football thing it comes with to attach to the string.

I have an older Rip Cord & I like it but I have read some bad reviews on the new Red one.

How did you like it compared to the Thropy Taker, and what big difference did you see between the two.

I've been using the Thropy Taker for a few years on my hunting bows and I just bought another one today, for a new bow I bought yesterday.

I'm always getting things from my sponsor to try and promote, however I'm funny about changing things that work for me. I still used a Boo Doodle pro series model until last year on my 3D bows. Just always worked for me, and I didn't see a reason to change.
I'll give the Code Red a try the next bow I get.

Yep, shot it on my 82nd airborn.
the only bow (Bowteck)

When its speed you need then its Bowteck indeed.
leaving the others down range.
Come shoot in the Iowa games in July and I'll see you there.

Had clearance issues on my My GTO with a TT then i switched to a G5 Expert II had the same problem after about a 100 shots.... Then got a limb driver and haven't looked back. One of the best for a dual cam bow IMO
