Compound Bow Comparator

The Fanatic 3.0 is a pretty decent upgrade over the outgoing 2.0. The added features are all highly sought after for most shooters on the market for a new target bow, and Bowtech delivered. It is also a decent selling point the Overdrive Binary Cam System feels just like a hunting bow to help shooters more easily make the transition to target archery. These cams have been around for a long time, and there is good reason for that considering the performance and adjustability offered. The price tag is pricey, but not more than competitors in the target world. Shooters interested in this caliber of compound bow are serious archers, and the Fanatic 3.0 should live up to that type of hype. Read full review...

The Fanatic 2.0 is a great shooting target bow with the ability to be used on the line indoors shooting paper, or outside shooting 3D targets. For a competition bow, the price is reasonable, but $1499 is still pretty steep for most people potentially interested in a new target bow. That cost may be justified a bit with the Powershift technology and shooters having the ability to choose between three distinct draw cycles to better accommodate the style of shooting they partake in. To say this bow is capable of any style of competitive shooting would be an understatement. Shooters already owning a Fanatic may not find enough of a difference between the 2.0 to justify a new purchase. The 2.0 is a more refined model, and there are some differences, but most shooters will not feel the need to drop the original Fanatic for the 2.0. Overall, if shooters are looking at new target bows, the Fanatic 2.0 is worth a look. Read full review...
