Dave Watson was diehard Mathews forever and "switched" to Gearhead Archery a couple or so years ago. I know I'm usually late to the party but now I see that Roger Raglin has "switched" to Gearhead Archery. Has anyone on the GS actually used, held, or shot one of these 10 inch bows?? JK about the 10 inches of course but dang....

Been shooting a Bowtech 82nd Airborne for several years and have enjoyed it. I was walking by the trailer at TTHA for gearhead, and decided to stop and take a look....i was intrigued by their design and then i decided to shoot one. I was so impressed i decided to order one.
There were 2 brothers in front of me waiting to shoot one, they were both talking about how they just bought Halons....after they shot the Gearhead they both decided to buy one and sell their Halons....True Story. The guy that invested in the company started laughing when they said they would take 2 of them....
I haven't been excited about buying a new bow but after shooting this one (T20, 60lbs) i got excited.
I think once they pick up a some dealers in Texas they will catch on. One of the Engineers and one of the guys that financed the company were answering questions, they had a good story and from what i could tell a very interesting product and design.
The reason i decided to buy was after the arrow was released, it was like I hadn't shot it, I'm not sure what the bow term would be but (recoil) is the only word that comes to mind.
Last but not least i shot the Aluminum and Carbon didn't really feel any difference for the cost and only losing about 8 oz's in weight. For some reason there isn't much about them on Youtube, but the guys in Hawaii really like them and that one video of him crushing the target at 75 yds, looked pretty convincing to me about accuracy.
Hopefully i am making a wise investment on a Bow since I haven't bought one in a long time, except for my recurves!
I shoot at my home and behind my office, if you want to try it, come by the office.
And no I'm not in the Bow business, I'm in the money business...my point being is this not a commercial, but i do think they deserve a fair shake on something that is a little bit revolutionary and got the attention of a typical skeptic.
If you get a chance to shoot one, you should try it.

I just shot one yesterday for the first time a 24 inch version. I have a turbo carbon hoyt now and I can tell you that it will be my back up bow.. I live a few miles from CCA so I get to shoot new bows pretty ease as they get them in .. Dont get me wrong I like many other bows.
The size of this bow is amazing. the pull is very light for the poundage you pull.
And in a tree or blind no more worrys about branches or how or where you sit , super light.. And its extremely quiet to shoot .. Whats not to like about it ??
