SPECIES IS PERFECT INTRODUCTORY BOW FOR FIRST-TIME BOWHUNTERS

EVANSVILLE, IN (October 9, 2017) – Bear Archery announced today the launch of an all-new compound bow to join the 2018 lineup. The Species is rooted in inspiration from Fred Bear, the company's founder, who developed a legacy of innovation and a heritage of introducing new technologies that are accessible to everyone.

The Species is a high-performance single cam system that shoots 320 feet per second and will be available at retail for $399.99. The Species is the perfect bow for an adult learning to bow hunt and comes ready to hunt. This package includes a Trophy Ridge 4-pin sight, Whisker Biscuit, an arrow quiver, stabilizer, and sling, and a peep sight and nock loop.

"We are proud to continue the tradition of making archery accessible for everyone by introducing the Species," says Dave Parker, Archery General Manager. "The Species is the perfect introductory bow for a first-time adult bowhunter because it is so simple to set up and so easy to shoot."

The Species offers the Lock Down Pocket System for the most accurate riser-to-pocket-to-limb alignment in the industry. The bow's ShockWaves limb dampening system reduces vibration and noise and the advanced grip design eliminated hand torque for enhanced accuracy.
