Went to my hunting buddy's house this weekend so we could ride down to the Buckmasters show in Greensboro, N.C. He had a Bowtech Allegiance in his shop that needed a new center serving installed, so we got it fixed up, and I gave it a whirl out on the target range. The draw was a little too long for me, but not bad enough that I couldn't shoot it a little. This was the first Bowtech that I have shot, and I was impressed with it right away. Even though I was fighting a draw length that was a little long, I still shot it well right from the first few arrows. The draw cycle was a little different that I am used too in the Hoyts, especially right in the first few inches of string travel, but I got used to it pretty quickly. And it was fast. We measured the draw weight on a digital scale, and it was set at 62 lbs. At 62 lbs, with a draw length I'm guessing was about 29", it was flat spitting out the arrow!! I don't know what arrow weight the guy was using, but it was traveling Does anyone know right offhand what the IBO rating on the Allegiance is? It's gotta be pretty quick.
All in all, a great feeling and shooting bow. I'm not intending on giving up my Hoyts anytime soon, but I sure wouldn't worry about a deer getting away from me if I had that Allegiance either.

Great bows aren't they? Love my Allegiance!

I am not real knowledgable on the Bowtech specs, but I think the IBO on the Allegiance is around 330fps.

I shot both the tribute and the allegiance earlier this year.......I felt both bows were exceptional in quality and feel. It sems like most folks like the tribute better, but if I were buying one, I would go with the allegiance myself.

I think mine was rated at 326 fps.

IBO speed

My 60# allegience with 28" draw came with a factory certificate that said 304fps. The 30" bows are guaranteed at 328-332 fps
