New Hunting rig (Bowtech Invasion)

[skyhunter]

  Almost got this bow set up now, just a few things left.

Got the Montana Black Gold sight in the mail on saturday and we're almost there. Took some shots with it and I am pleased to say that it definitely justified the purchase. I had been shooting a 2007 Bowtech Allegiance for the last 4 seasons and really didn't see buying a new bow to replace it, being as I didn't think I would gain that much.

Now that this bow has come along, not only am I getting 30 ft / sec more out of 60lbs/ 28" draw, but I am also getting greater shootability and foregiveness as the geometry of this bow places the pivot point of the limbs well behind the grip. In the foot/lbs of energy category I also went up 13lbs.

Yesterday I spent some time lessening the pin gaps as the arrows are now flying a lot flatter than they had with my Allegiance. I have not yet got my back sight (Hindsight) installed, and yet I am still shooting fairly tight groups. Arrows are not going left or right but the misses are mostly high and low as being without a rear reference my tendency is to be inconsistent with my vertical head position. That being said the absence of left /right torque in the bow is noticeable.

Speed and shootability is one sweet package for a bowhunter to have, and so far this Invasion delivers both and has lived up to my expectations.

Oh Sky... I hate you, I hate you, I hate you!!!     

My local bow shop has one in 70#, and I shoot 50#... so I haven't got to draw one yet - But the FEEL of that bow is awesome!!!!!!!

Good Luck with it for years to come!

Let us know how you like the Hindsight.

I've got one to install on my Bowtech Swat I purchased a couple months ago for my BG sight.

Going for the single pin sight and removing the peep from the string.

Nice rig Sky.

I've been using the Hind Sight for a few years and love it!

I bought a Invasion a month ago and can't believe the groups, the speed, the penetration, and how quiet it is. Can't wait until opening day.
