Newest Bow - Interesting Camo!!!
The newest mistress to the harem is my new 2015 APA NANO
she is donning the New Soft touch Camo in "Digital Camo"
I strayed away from my signature Winter Mimicry Camo just to try this new pattern...
I bow hunt Elk, Mule deer, whitetail, bear and even Moose in our mid west poplar tree woodlands
I thought I would give it a try to see how it blends into the poplar trees and willows!!
I was pleasently surprized with the results...
Both in the direct sunlight and shadows it blended in perfect...even in snow...its going to be great on foot, blinds, and stands....
Absolutely an all season camo...Im very happy with it
Neil

Greys, tans, and "puke" or "canned pea" greens are all very versatile colour choices for camo almost anywhere. Digital patterns are proven time and again.

I saw that new finish and I liked the feel of it. I was curious how cold that bow get compared to the old finish or other metal riser bows? Is it any milder to hold at -10 like the carbon bows are or is it about the same?

It is noticibly warmer to the grip and touch...the older riser would "conduct" the cold whereas the new Soft touch seems to insulate it...
feels much warmer on grip...

Funny thing, when we were at the show last weekend, I attempted to sneak into the APA demo booth - IncrediGirl was incredibly skillful at herding me away from there.
Smart girl.

Only 3.9 Lbs...light but well balanced...if too light for some shooters a stabilizer with switch out weight mods makes it perfect...mine with the 3" Axion and ultra light HS stabilizer insert is truly perfect...
