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...

My Bowtech Destroyer 350 still smashes everything it hits so I'm happy with it!!!

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.
