Changing the two discs is simple: Just remove two pairs of Allen-head screws, flip the discs, and replace the screws. It also features a revamped version of BowTech’s FlipDisc, which allows for two distinct draw profiles: The Performance setting generates a bit more speed and a shallower valley, and the Comfort setting generates a smoother draw cycle. Pair that with the system’s MicroSync dial (an ingenious tuning device that allows you to correct minor timing issues caused by string and cable stretch or wear, without the need for a bow press), and you have the ability to fine-tune your bow quickly and easily. The Reign 6 features redesigned binary cams that allow for tuning of both vertical and horizontal nock travel. And while bow geeks will love that, you really don’t have to adjust it much to make it shoot smoothly. You can tune and adjust this bow as much or as little as you want. In the end, it was the Reign’s adjustability that gave it the edge. This year’s champion was the Reign 6 from BowTech, which earned a score of 93.8 out of a possible 100 to slip past Mathews’ Halon 32-5. Ackerman + Gruberįor the second year in a row, the battle for the Editor’s Choice award came down to two models, a few points, and one heck of a dogfight. Ackerman + Gruber EDITOR’S CHOICE | BOWTECH REIGN 6 | SCORE: 93.8 This year’s Editor’s Choice compound, the Bowtech Reign 6. Test team member Alex Robinson holds steady on the Indiana 3D course. Whether you’re looking for a budget bow for backyard whitetails or a top-end rig designed for conquering the field and the 3D course, you’ll find it here. We evaluated bows that offer tremendous value, some performance breakthroughs, and, yes, a few duds that need refining. Still, variety defines the compound industry. But we’d be less than honest if we said we didn’t find ourselves looking for a bit more innovation in this lineup. Why change a good thing? they’d probably argue. We test and review the best new hunting crossbowsĪdvancements in compound bow technology have come so far, so fast, it’s a bit greedy to expect radical redesigns every year from every manufacturer.
