[lifeson241]

U taking your fish oil daily..??????  Nice video man !!

[randytune88]

dang man sick set up what arrows you using and what is ur pull weight set to??



[notladgnag]

I need that range. Probably still couldn't hit the 80 yard target.

[skipdownstairs]

hey what drop away is that??

[jhelmsorig]

I love my bowtech tomkat

[esoxkid06]

man you get some awesome christmas presents...

[demon7575]

PSE GX TREESTAND .. TRY IT! AWESOME BOW

[MAIDEN068]

how do you shoot that far??? i shoot my bow all the time and im not accurate past 30 yards! whats your secret????

[tacos43]

Its the Bling Sling man. Those are the best sling in the world. I got me a few of them. Great video.

[TozerBGood]

@tacos43 Yeah...I know I said it wrong. The BLING SLING is a GREAT SLING!

[dbboy79]

i hate how video makes a nice bow sound like shit...

[TozerBGood]

@dbboy79 Yeah...I quieted the bow down quite a bit since this video. I put bowjax on the string stop, which is where the thunk noise comes from. Some people put bowjaxs on the flex gaurd also.

[HDMann292]

Hey what is the hat cam you have?

[TozerBGood]

@HDMann292 check out HatCam.com

[bowhunter853]

[TozerBGood]

[predator1able]

ya go oregon!

[LamboCam]

When people say their arrows are (ex.) 340 grains..is that everything combined...lumenoks arrow/tip/ broadhead?? thanks! Im thinkin bout upgrading to this amazing bow!!...nice shot:)

[TozerBGood]

@LamboCam yeah, the weight is the total arrow, fletches, field point..everything. I buy bareshafts, and fletch myself, and the weigh the arrows on a fine scale.

[TozerBGood]

I don't understand why this video is so much more poular than my other videos. It makes no sense.

[TozerBGood]

@TozerBGood - Maybe it's because of my dog

[pootinhammer]

thats pretty good

[TozerBGood]

@pootinhammer

Thanks

[burtonpunch180]

my dad has the same bow and he shot it from 95 yards and he still tipped th target over. than the next week he went to wyoming and shot a pretty good mulee from 55 yards with a rage broadhead and just tore it apart. =]

[TozerBGood]

@burtonpunch180 - that's cool

[TozerBGood]

@burtonpunch180  RIGHT ON!

[CROSSBOWPISTOL]

i like the bow =D

[95ULTRAZ]

Bowtech is a shit load better than PSE. Some will say the Destroyer 350 is even better then the Matthews Z7.

[TozerBGood]

@95ULTRAZ They are all good bows. Each has there own good points and bad points. Everyone should shoot what they like.

[streakingcameraman]

@95ULTRAZ Dude, bowtech has made amazing strides in technology and are fearless when it comes to making new technology. Sometimes, they mess up with it, like the recalls on the limbs a few years back. However, sometimes they hit the mark and make outstanding bows like the invasion and the destroyer series that are far better than anything mathew's has ever put out. Mathew's, millions in marketing, Bowtech, millions in actual technology. 

[101TheBas]

i just got a new bowtech tomkat and it is sweet my favorite bow so far

[TozerBGood]

Since this video was made, I have completely worn out the string and replaced string and cables with Tropy string & cables. And then I paper & yoke tuned it, and gained arrow speed. However I bought heavier arrows for elk hunting (423 gr Victory VForce). Now my arrow speed with the 423 gr arrows is approx 310 fps.

[TozerBGood]

BTW I just noticed several folks asking where in Oregon. This range is in just outside of Wren, Oregon, which is approx 7 miles west of Corvallis. It's owned by the Benton Bowmen.

The DL of the bow is set at 30". The bow was set up at 63# (it has 70# limbs), shooting 346gr Victory VForce HV arrows. I'll let you do the math, but to say the least, it's the fastest bow I have ever owned.

[MrLakehoward]

what a christmas sir ahaha that bow is badass i have an bowtech alliegance and what is the draw weight on that bow

[rockinthefirebird]

sweet range. you have quite the selection of ranges. I knew it was oregon when I first watched.  takes one to know one.

[you78mas]

either the bow is sooooo super fast or u r shooting at less than 80yards

[TheBowtechdude]

@you78mas the average pace of a human from heel to toe is roughly 30-36 inches. 1 yard=36 inches obviously, so count how many steps he takes...its a fast bow.

[hondamike21]

Did you make your backstops? If so.. out of what?

[BIGD6625]

not bad.. and i guarantee you can do better. i just bought a Bowtech SWAT recently and once i got used to the bow and the feel my groups improved tremendously. once you get settled in you'll shoot lights out

[parrishstuckey1]

What kind of hat cam is it? Are you looking through your left eye

[TheMoo531]

how much was it i cant find anny prices?

[1234yousuck56789]

@TheMoo531 $800

[541bigb72]

where abouts are you in oregon? im in coos bay...havent had the chance to shoot an elk with my bow but i got a nice cow with my rifle at 250 yards...

[ifimlyinimbryan]

the purpose of the wrist sling or whatever its called is so you can shoot with your hand wide open not gripping the bow. im sure your group will tighten up if you shoot that way.

[PHDinSMoKiNgTrEe]

Nice vid man I just ordered a D350 myself jw but wat camo u got on that bow?

[BowtechFreak]

Where at in Oregon are you at?

[smurfnme]

better get some string silencers if you are gonna try to shoot an elk at 50 let alone 80yrds ! Decent shooting & nice bow but, I shot one at our pro shop & it`s one loud bow.Especially the flex roller guard. Maybe some minnie limb savers on the roller guard. Thats why I like my Guardian dead quiet with NO string silencers or stabilizer 393grn arrow 280fps.

[gasguiltyasin]

whats your draw length/draw weight/grain arrow/FPS? also what pin are you using at that distance

[staver76]

Your insane , 80 feet and that accuracy? I pity the deer that tries to run from you.

[randy4536]

dude,,,,yer killin em,,,very nice from 80 yards,,,

you are steady as hell come on,,,,dont be so non shalant! guns er easy bow is harder, ya were cool! nice vid, i have to get one of those.

[starchildbt]

Not a bad group at all for that distance. It sounded like the arrows got to the target there pretty darn quick.

[abnerrose]

I found one here in indiana for 850 going to shoot in in morning and if I like it will buy it I'd much rather bowtech than matthews not say matthews is bad just not a fan.

[millennium]

picking one up this spring....loving it...tops all mathews..

[vybzshakur]

nice bow.. do you know any that are quieter and the round thing with the gold spikes is called a sight?

[TozerBGood]

Are you trying to say the bow is noisy? And Yes, it's called a sight. The brand is Spot Hogg.

[paul7from7ukr]

@vybzshakur Any bowtech with center pivot limbs will be quieter (in my experience). Try an admiral or a captain.

[FSUNole05]

80 yard shots are tough, have you been able to kill anything that far? why did you pick the destroyer? Im thinking about getting the Z7 or Destroyer, whats your take?

[TozerBGood]

I missed a 70yd shop at a 6pt bull 2 yrs ago. I was sitting in an awkward position and shot low. The next day I shot a 5x6 at 40yds. Last year I shot a 6x7 bull at30 yds.

[TozerBGood]

I evaluated several bows before picking the D350. The Z7 was among bows evaluatedits a smooth shooting bow, but D350 faster.

I shot several arrows through each bow and chronied, and tested for grouping. D350 fastest and best grouping (I thought). You can see my D350 threads on ArcheryTalk.

[aanderson66]

@FSUNole05 i have the same decision as you between the same two bows. i actually want this one more but im holding off on it. too easy to jump string off the track with the cam design. i have a feeling bowtech knew about it before the bow was released to the public but did it anyways. or maybe thats just the cynical me. regardless thats too much money for me to gamble on. i dont think it takes that much hand torque to do it either

[FSUNole05]

Based on reviews of all the forums, It seems that Z7 is the best bow out right now. Z7 runs around 750.00 here in Georgia. The destroyer is little more expensive. I have Hoyt Alphamax 32 and its awesome but I would go with Mathews based on their reputation. Good luck deciding.

[TheWetzel21]

Where at in Georgia can you find the Z7 for $750?

[FSUNole05]

Adventures Outdoor!!

[TozerBGood]

It's a GREAT bow! I only used a Nikon Coolpix L18. But I'm hoping to save up and get a Casio EX-FC100 Hi-Speed camera (but they're about $250).

[sandiamx]

hey man im lookin at that bow. much can i get one of them for? (bare bow) how much did you pick one up for?

[TozerBGood]

$899

[brankramp]

It's Fast :)...what is your draw lenght and poundage of your bow...and tell me the total arrow weight...what speed you get?...thanks! Nice Bow

[TozerBGood]

Those arrows are Victory VForce HV 300s 346gr shooting 333fps at 63Lb 30" DL.

The only problem I'm now having is getting the 0.30" Dia arrows out of 3D targets. I just bought some fatter LineJammers, but haven't tried them out yet. Still gotta fltech...etc.
