Summary
Summary review written by our editors.

Bowtech hit a homerun when they came out with the Prodigy in 2014; a super smooth draw bow, lots of punch, and the technology to actually adjust the performance range of the bow. So, what did they do to step it up a little in 2015? They designed a longer ATA rig with the same concepts in the Prodigy and gave the archery community the Boss. The Boss has the same PowerDisc/PowerShift technology, overdrive binary cam system, super smooth draw, and 333 fps that is very accurate and efficient. Adjustable from 26" - 31.5" of draw length, 40# - 70# of draw weight, 7" brace height, and the ability to adjust between a performance setting, traditional setting, and a comfort setting, this rig can be setup for any shooting season. This bow has all the quality one would expect from Bowtech and does not disappoint. Read full review...

The 2015 Bowtech Prodigy is becoming a popular bow for the serious archers. At first glance, it appears to be "just another speed bow," but at closer look, the first thing one will notice is the gold gear in the cams. Then you are forced to take a closer look. With the flexibility to alter the feel of the shot, this rig definitely will grab the attention of any shooter. This bow is average in size at 32" ATA and a 7" brace height. The max draw weight and draw length are average too. That is all that is average though. This rig boasts a 343 fps, and will hold pretty close to IBO even after adding the normal necessities. The Prodigy comes in a bare bow package, but can be purchased fully loaded, but if the shooter is spending this much on a bow, it only makes sense to add the exact components desired instead of a kit. This is a very nice shooter that will not leave the archer disappointed. One archer looking to purchase a new bow tested the Prodigy along with several others. After purchasing the Prodigy, he stated that the bow chose him instead of him choosing the bow. He said "it just felt right." Read full review...
