BowTech Insanity Receives Recognition

The Insanity CPX, BowTech's flagship model for 2012, was recently recognized as the most outstanding in its class by two different national hunting and outdoor magazines; Petersen's Hunting and Field & Stream.

The Insanity SPX received the Editor's Choice Award from Petersen's Hunting, recognized as being of the highest quality, innovative design, and of the utmost utility for today's bowhunter.

"For the last three years, Petersen's Hunting has awarded manufacturers with the Editor's Choice Award for best-in-class products. This award is given to products that embody the ideal combination of quality, craftsmanship, ingenuity and value. Hundreds of products are thoroughly tested by staff writers and editors in real-world conditions. Where scientific measures can be used for quantifiable results, they are. Where they can't, years of hunting experience and practical field knowledge become the yardstick." Petersen's Hunting

Additionally, the BowTech Insanity CPX received the "Best of the Best" Award from Field & Stream.

"This bow surprised my testing team, a group of guys known to bash 'speed' bows. Nothing wrong with a fast arrow, of course, but speed usually comes at a price-a rugged draw, unconquerable noise, thrumming vibration-that most bowhunters don't want to pay. The Insanity, however, managed to solve those issues and nose out some heavy competition.

"It broke the 300-fps barrier while flinging a 425-grain hunting arrow, only the second manufacturer's bow to accomplish that feat in the history of our test. That speed comes from BowTech's aptly named Overdrive Binary Cam, which rolled over nicely at the 70-pound test weight; crank the weight down 10 pounds and the draw would be effortless. The back wall was rock solid, and the bow had wonderful balance. 

BowTech has incorporated a lot of new technology, too, including the FLX-Guard, which reduces riser torque and nock travel." -Field & Stream.
