Just picked up my new bowtech reign 7 from Jim-bows in Edmonton. Couldn't b happier with it. Took a few months of shooting different bows and internet surfing but finally. Carson and Dave great guys and great shop. Hope the weather breaks next week so I can shoot some distance with it.
Cool looking bow. I shot the Reign 7 at Jim Bows and was impressed with the draw cycle, low shot recoil, and all the adjustability in the cams.
Good luck with the new purchase!!!
So your saying it's heavier then most manufacturers ...

Nope pretty much right on par with other big manufacturers. Hoyt Defiant comes in at the same....Halons are coming in around 4.5+ pounds.
Personally a bit heavier bow holds better for me anyhow. I use front and back bars (back bar with 8oz of added weight) on my hunting bow, a 5 arrow quiver, Spot Hogg sight, Hamskea rest, and a bow mounted camera (none of which are built to be light). The day I can't carry my bow is the day I take up a different activity.

Great looking bow. It's awesome you're pumped to shoot it and you let it choose you after trying so many options. That alone will give you confidence in your ability.
I've never understood the weight issue. Some people care and others don't. You will not shoot that bow and dial it in at all sorts of distances and then walk away saying you wish it was 3 oz lighter
Thanks for sharing the pics. Next up: tight groups of arrows, THEN: bloody arrow, short blood trail, and your elk

Carrying around a 15 lbs rifle in the same bush as with bow. So a pound or two is not a concern with me. I read a few threads on here and it seem to b the common advice to shoot as many different bows as u can and let the bow decide. Didn't have a budget per day but had a ball park price in mind.
Now just need to become efficient and precise with the new bow.
The quest is finally over.
