 Re: Pagin' Swamp Snyper
300 FPS is a big # fo me! i shoot a 26.5" draw nuttin' personal DDM, Mathews is a hell of a bow, but it's just not fo me! been shootin' High Country fo 8 years now & prolly go back wit 'em! just wanna know if de Destroyer is gonna pan out for Bowtech. wit dat being said, Bowtech or Hoyt would be de only "mainstream" bow i would buy!

 Re: Pagin' Swamp Snyper
Well I got to sling about 20 arrows today with the 350 and 340. Its a nice bow, but not what I was expecting. The handle seems to slim for my likings. I do like the laminated limb design and It does have a smooth draw but the hand shock was nothing special. All in all nothing really stood out and made me say wow. For the price I'll stick to my allegience and admiral. IMO the admiral is the way to go. I got to talking to the bow guru and he felt the same way I did. Said he put his admiral up and took the Destroyer home and said after about a week of shooting it he pulled his admiral back out and sold the destroyer.
To each his own, but i feel with all the hype that bowtech made about the destroyer it was a let down for me.
