    I disagree. I'm not going to dump a bunch of money into a bow that looks like that. When it comes to guns, bows, and rods & reels that I'm going to spend money on, I'm going to like the way they look. This isn't a wrench or a pipe.

      Well I shoot a glock so I guess that is why .. And I disagree its a tool,... My Glock and AR have been used just for that,.. in service to protect myself and others . To tell anyone that its a looks deal is silly in my opinion .. Do you really think the fish cares what the reel looks like , or the game you shoot noticed the latest camo pattern ..

      You care what it looks like , it has nothing to do with function . I want an item that gets the job done each and every time . If that said item is smaller lighter and easier to maneuver ad there is no down side ?? why not ..

      Its a mechanical device designed to propel an arrow . that simple .

        Strange looking for sure but I've been interested in the bowfishing rigs. Just want someone else to try them first.

          I shot bows at the ATA show a few weeks ago. I can understand their concept, but did not feel it was next best thing.

            I'm not sure of what their concept is ?
            A short bow with crazy string angles? Way too many pieces on that riser and pistol grip for me to even look at them.

            Also, having a looooong release doesn't increase your draw length!


            Hard to think that PSE, Matthews, Bowtech, Elite, Obsession, Martin, High Country, etc, etc., got it wrong for all these years.

                The employee said they wanted to shake up the archery community. Basically, all bows look alike. Only so many ways to cut a riser. New concepts generate new ideas.

                  Sure. I work with engineers daily. I understand taking simple, proven designs and complicating the hail out of them

                    That's what engineers do!!! Just ask any shade tree mechanic that is trying to change the last spark plug at the back of the engine.

                      Do some research on where they bought some of their ideas from .. Owner of this company .. He decided to make this one his own .

                      I get it I own a 1400 + dollar bow now.. bows pistols are a " fit" thing . It may not be for everyone .. I can say that it fits me very well and I plan to buy one..

                      Complicated ? Explain that ?? a left or right bow thats a nice feature ..

                      Other companys got it wrong well some went under others kept changing.. SO Not sure how you can say that they are right and this one is wrong ??


                      CCA is not where I shot it and they do not sell them I live by that shop and shot all the new bows this year and nothing was jumping out at me . will keep my 17 version for the back up and the new GH for primary .

                        Anybody? Any other opinions out there?

                          I saw one for the first time on tv today. They are ugly, but the first parallel limbed bow I saw was ugly also. Probably not buy one.
