Carbon Icon reviews

For archers looking for a prime hunting bow, the Bowtech Carbon Icon is an ideal choice for a variety of reasons. For one, it’s a very quiet and vibration-free bow that can produce a respectable arrow speed, more than enough to take down a big game animal at a decent range, not to mention that it’s compact and lightweight enough for long trips through the woods. It comes in at a very decent price.

Things to consider before buying

First off, the Bowtech Carbon Icon comes with a silencing package, which works to kill most of the noise and vibration caused when shooting. It comes with a carbon-printed side plate grip, which is comfortable to hold, plus it looks stylish, although it may produce minimal torque.

The Carbon Icon comes with a dual cam system, not the fastest in the world, but fast enough to let off a good number of shots in a limited amount of time. It might not be the fastest, but it is very smooth. A standout feature is the FlipDisc2 tech integrated here, which allows you to switch between a performance setting and a comfort, setting, thus allowing for a great deal of versatility.

What also stands out is how this bow only weighs slightly over 3 pounds, making it one of the lighter options.  It also has a relatively short AtA length, making it fairly compact as well, which is ideal for all day hunting needs. It’s fairly forgiving for such a short bow, and it’s certainly very stable thanks to the high quality limbs. It comes in 2 finish options.

Pros

• Good price for what it is
• Respectable FPS for big game hunting
• Comfort and performance settings
• Super lightweight design
• Compact
• Rotating module for easy draw weight adjustment without a bow press

Cons

• Not the fastest at drawing
• Low quality cable slide

Final thoughts

For any hunter looking for a reliable compound bow for a decent price, the Bowtech Carbon Icon compound bow is a good choice. It’s compact and lightweight, but still more than powerful enough to take on big game.
