    It's not another 'new bowtech thread'! ;)

    It's a TNT Revolution bow. When I first saw this bow at one of our shows.... I laughed at it. ....Then I shot it. It's actually a really sweet shooting little bow.

    I'll be putting it through it's paces and see if I continue to like it. First I'm going to beat up on it by setting it up for bowfishing. Then if holds up, I'll set it up for some 3d shooting and if it proves worthy... I'll take it hunting.

    It's only 22" ATA. (I could have gotten it in pink camo... but it would really look like a toy then.)

    Pic of Kendall holding my bow. :D

    Better put some No Glovs on there:D


    Interested to hear how it preforms as a bowfishing bow. Might have to get one of those next year instead of a Browning Barracuda

    COElk, I think it's 25-60lbs. (my buddy has the manual and specs) IBO isn't too fast. Something like 270-275. I won't be getting much speed with my short draw. low poundage and heavy arrows but I'll put some arrows through a chrono and compare it to my bowtech equalizer. The equalizer should smoke it handily but this bow is much nicer to my shoulder than the equalizer. This bow is not squirrely at all.

    Jim, my buddy shot a 12 hour bowfishing tourny with his and said that he didn't have any problem with finger pinch. In my opinion, it's waay easier on your fingers than the barracuda. Mostly because this has let-off.
    He also said it was nice to shoot from just about anywhere on the boat and not worry about smashing a limb up against a railing or gunnel.

    Mudnation, I don't blame her. :) I rarely (like almost never) shoot a bow and then suddenly wanted one like I did with this one.

    I've seen those out at some shows. They look even smaller in person. Cool little bow though. I'm sure you'll be happy with it.

    That thing is sweet! Looks like it has alot of room for draw weight adjustment.

    That is definately a small bow, but with Kendall holding it, it looks even smaller.

    Good luck with it.
