I don't think bowtech makes that good of a bow. I think they just have a good name like hoyt or Mathews but I don't think they can be mentioned with them. They are not of the quality of Hoyt or Mathews. I will give them that bowtech does have a pretty awesome draw cycle................ also I would have to mention how well balanced of a bow they are......... and that speed... That speed should not be allowed on a bow that is so smooth. And the accuracy of those bows, I didn't know it was possible for a bow so fast and so smooth to be so accurate. Also the durability.....those bows will last you a lifetime. Come to think of it I'm pretty sure that bowtech makes the best bow on the market! That's why my new bow is going to be the Bowtech Invasion! I have shot this bow numerous times and it blows my Z7 out of the water which takes alot for me to say. It is faster, smoother, lighter, and a better balanced bow! I have to hand it to bowtech. When it comes time for me to upgrade I will be happy to join the bowtech family!

Also Bowtech has a better grip... I can't stand Mathews grips, even when I was a Mathews shooter.

The Mathews Koolaid of 08-10 is drying up fast. I will say if they don't bring something out special this year they are on the way out.

And your located In kerens correct? That is right on the way to my lease. Next time I head down there I'll stop by and check out the destroyer. See if I like it better than the invasion.

Where'd you find it? I fell in love with my buddy's Guardian after shooting the Z7 for a while, but they haven't made it since 2008.

Shouldn't you go ahead and change up your signature block?

You seemed to have switched brands.

I just shot a Z7 extream and will go take a look at the Destoryer later this week. I have to say, I went in to get check out the Mission Endeavor and went a head and shot the Z7. All that did was mess me up. I really liked the way the bow felt and shot.

My only issue with the Z7 is the price, but it really was a nice shooting bow. It seemed to be forgiving. What I like about the Mission, beside the draw, was the ability to change the weights.

Today I went to Cabela's to check out a few other bows. I shot a Diamond Fugitive and a Quest. The Diamond felt better then the Quest, but neither had a smooth draw, so I doubt I'd get either.

Can you give me some feed back on the Bowtech?

What is the difference between Destroyer 340 vs 350?

I've already got a bow, so I'm not looking for entry level. I'm also not looking to take a 2nd mortage on the house to get a new bow either. But I'd be lying to say, I've not started thinking of coming up with the extra money to get the Z7. It is over my budget, so I may weight.

Try telling my bowtech assassin that it is an "entry level" bow for beginners only...it is an expensive bow to shoot if you sling more than one arrow at the same spot on a target! Haven't had it long but have been counting coup on rabbits possum and hog this month.

shot the assasian, it didn't seem "entry level" at all. reason I didn't buy the assassin was the dealer cut me a $200 lower price on the stud than the assasin.
