    I just got a few xpedition bows in today and was very impressed with them. Anybody else get a chance to try these out?

    I live in Yankton, where they are made. I have heard some good things about them, but they are expensive. I think most guys who are looking to buy a new bow and spend a lot of money will go for one of the big brands instead of messing around with these smaller companies that are pumping out Strother designs.

    That is a good-looking bow... but I agree with boof's statement.

    I may be eating crow [see my post above]. My local Bowtech Dealer just added the Xpedition Bows to his arsenal. I actually think I'll try one out on the indoor range.

    My dealer also said they are a sweet shooting bow and just got some in at the shop. I'll be trying one out for sure.

    Yes for the most part, though I wonder about the three tracks a single cams since his previous ones have been such epic fails.

    I think the real common denominator is the amount of company's willing to buy from him...considering the history he has of screwing people over. Archery in some respects is a pretty small community.
    Maybe some of those royalty checks could pay back the guys he stole from?
    Kevin do you need my address?

    Ha. I wish I knew more about the situation. I'm just aware he isn't a well liked guy and he has changed companies 481266 times.
