Well it’s a new year, which brings another opportunity for us archers to drool over all the new bows, gosh darn it, and I’m not about to let that activity pass me by without a look-see!
Smaller framed people (like us women and youth) generally like the shorter axle to axle bows for their ease of maneuverability in a tree and in a ground blind. They also tend to be lighter in weight. Perfect for us women!
Here is a listing of every bow company’s short axle-to-axle bows, (otherwise referred to as A to A) and the weight of the bow (minus after-market goodies) in alphabetical order.
All bows cover a 40# draw for the average woman shooter. If there is no 40# bow in their product line, the least amount of peak weight is listed as noted.)
All bows have clickable links to take you directly to the specified bow and also to the home page of the bow company (in bold font).
Note All bows listed may not be new products for 2009, but are still part of their product line. Several were also listed in 2008.
