Bowtech Archery’s newly launched Ascend compound bow is engineered to deliver the flagship-level performance that hardcore bowhunters demand, at a price — $999 — that fits real-life budgets. With IBO speeds that rival high-end bows, a buttery draw cycle and a smart, DIY-friendly tuning experience, the Ascend proves that bowhunters can truly get more for their money.
Designed from the ground up for the blue-collar hunter, the Ascend features high-end materials and advanced technologies typically reserved for top-tier models. Its goal is to redefine expectations in the mid-price category without compromising accuracy, performance or ease of use.
At the heart of the Ascend is the all-new DeadLock Lite Cam System, a simplified, press-free tuning platform that allows archers to achieve precision accuracy with just an Allen wrench. With rotating modules and FlipDisc technology, shooters can easily fine-tune draw length and choose between a smooth draw or high-performance speed. Key features include
forged 6061 aluminum riser and limb pockets, Picatinny and standard sight mounts, Integrate Mounting System (IMS) for a secure rest connection and zero movement, dual stabilizer mounts for customization of balance and much more.
