G5® Outdoors and the Prime Ion Win Field & Streams “Best of the Test”

Several Great Bows were tested, but when the Dust settled it was the Prime Ion that Came Out on Top



Memphis, Michigan - G5® Outdoors, the leading designer and manufacturer of premium archery equipment, and their Prime Ion compound bow have officially been named as a winner in the 2015 Field & Stream “Best of the Test” awards.

The best bow manufacturers in the industry were all present this April when the Field & Stream bow-test team gathered in Murray, Kentucky for a 3-day shootout of 2015’s leading compound bows. A dozen flagship models were tested and it was quickly determined that this would be the tightest battle in the test’s history.

“It’s a great honor to be recognized by a group like Field & Stream for offering the best bow in 2015,” stated Matt Grace, President of G5 Outdoors. “To see all of our hard work and diligence culminate in an award of this caliber makes me extremely proud of our entire G5 and Prime team.”

After three long days, the Field & Stream team was extremely impressed by the Prime Ion in all facets of the test, but as expected the virtual silence of the bow, its rock solid back wall and the overall effortlessness of shooting the Ion, carried it to the top. Most bows that are a joy to shoot will see themselves get easily surpassed in the speed category. Not the Ion… “The bow simply did nothing wrong.”

stikbow, just saw your sig.

I'm really debating ordering a new Ion. I, like you, have an Alloy with PCXLs and 60 lb limbs. Went and shot an Ion, and I like it, but I don't love it as much as the PCXLed Alloy. Comments? Pretty sure it's related to the vibe on the Flex Guard that can be easily resolved with a weighted damper.

Thanks!

I'm shooting a Bowtech now, but I will own another Prime one day. Great bows!! In a perfect world, I'd have a Boss and a Rival in my closet. Right now it holds an Experience. I'm too cheap to buy a new bow. And WAY too cheap to have have two premium bows at the same time!
