    Anyone ever have one of these? Or at least play with one? Have a guy offering one in a trade. Not finding a lot of info online. Some but not a lot.

    I never had one, but I shot one at the shop a few times. I really liked it from what I remember. I know this isn't glaring cold, hard facts, but it's all I got.

    I had one. In 2010 I believe. I liked it a lot. Very smooth to shoot. It was my 4th diamond bow

    I love mine! I bought it from a member here and never looked back.
    My previous bow I felt like it wanted to jump out of my hands. This bow does not.
    Nice wall once she's pulled back.

    I had one for a season as a backup bow. Quiet, smooth, very little handshock, plus the FLX-Guard to reduce torque which really helps on these types of short ATA bows.

    If I was looking to buy a used single cam bow on a limited budget this would be on the short list.

    I bought my bowtech captain 2010. At the time I was deciding between the captain and the diamond iceman. There really wasn't much of a difference in feel as far as shooting between either bow. I can't say I remember exactly what swayed my decision, but I might have been better off with the iceman as I'm on my third set of limbs with the captain. I remember the iceman feeling very smooth through the shot.

    I never shot the Iceman, but did shoot the Black Ice (the previous bow) and it was smooth. I was torn between that and the Tribute, which I eventually decided on. If you can, shoot the bow a few times and see if if feels good to you and go from there.

    It is in another state so can't shoot it, and I dont care a whole lot how it shoots for me personally lol I probably will only use it to bowfish if I use it at all. I would likely play with it for a minute and sell it.

    Was just looking for some reviews as I wasn't familiar with the bow. Thanks guys
