A little while back I was given the opportunity to try out the Compound bow from Apollo Tactical and I am very impressed with the product. As most of you know who visit this website often, over the past year I have gotten bitten by the archery bug, I started with building my own long bow, after that I purchased a crossbow, and now I am falling in love with the compound bow.
I was a little intimidated by this bow at first because I am no professional and this is definitely a top of the line bow. I think my initial hesitation to purchase a compound bow was based on the fact that they looked so complicated to use. The long bow and cross bow are pretty basic setups, but a compound bow just looked like I would have to spend time and money to get everything adjusted and fit to my specifications.
While this is true for some compound bows, it is not the case with the Apollo Tactical compound bow, everything is adjustable without the need to go to the pro shop or purchase a bow press.
The draw length is adjustable from 19 to 30”, and the draw weight is adjustable from 15Lbs to 70Lbs with just an Allen Wrench that comes with the package. I currently have mine set at 28” draw length and 45Lbs draw weight.
The main reason I have my compound bow set to 45Lbs draw weight right now is because the muscles I use to fire a compound bow need to be worked into shape before I can fire more than 2 shots at a higher weightage. I am working on my stance, consistency and sighting it in, so I need to be able to fire it continuously. Eventually I will raise the weight, and the great thing about this bow is I can do it any time I want.

The Compound Bow Installed Options
As I said, I am no professional…yet, but because this bow is so easily adjusted, you don’t need to be. Along with being easily adjusted to your body style this compound bow comes with a few other things already included.
CNC Milled Aluminum Parts: USA billet aluminum is used in our CNC machines to make the cams, body and other major parts of our compound bow. The bow is finished and assembled by hand, and made with exclusive anti-vibration and dampening technology.
The Forward Site: UV Lighted Site with 5 adjustable fiber optic pins, with a glow in the dark ring that really helps in low light situations.
The Peep Sight: Think of a peep sight as the rear sight on a gun, mechanically they serve a similar purpose. You just line up the peep sight with the forward sight and fire away.
D Loop: A D loop simply gives you a place to attach the arrow release without having to attach it to the main string giving you better accuracy.
Weighted Dampening System: The built in, “weighted dampening system” is designed to reduce vibration & sound. The machined metal weights are suspended in a sheathe of rubber.
Stabilizer: The stabilizer shares this technology extending its role from simple counter weight to actively improving your accuracy and stealth.
Whisker Biscuit: The arrow rest or “whisker Biscuit” also gives you better accuracy by holding the arrow in place insuring the same arrow position every time.
Apollo Tactical Compound Bow Package
As I said before, I am really impressed with the compound bow package from Apollo-Tactical. Because everything I needed was included, all I had to do was turn an Allen wrench a few times and I was out back shooting. Along with all the options already installed on the bow, the rest of the supplies came in a heavy duty hard case.
The Complete Package Includes
- HIGH QUALITY HARD CASE
- DETACHABLE QUIVER
- 6 ALUMINUM ARROWS (Great for target practice)
- 6 CARBON MIX ARROWS (Great for accuracy)
- 6 FIELD TIPS
- 6 BROAD HEAD TIPS
- BOW STRING WAX
- HEX KEY SET
- EXTRA CASE LATCH
- VELCRO WRIST STRAP ARROW RELEASE AID
- 2 POINT BOW STAND
Conclusion
This is not your run of the mill compound bow, this a top of the line milled aluminum compound bow with all the bells and whistles included. This package has everything you need to hit the range or head out hunting.
This bow weights 4.5 lbs and includes adjustable draw length 19” to 30” (without bow press) and adjustable draw weight 15 Lbs to 70 Lbs (without bow press) sending arrows flying through the air at up to 320 FPS (Feet Per Second) making it ideal for any shooter.
The price might be a little intimidating at first, but if you add up what it would cost to purchase each item of similar high quality you would end up paying just as much if not more.
The mere convenience of getting everything you need without having to wait for 10 different packages to get shipped, and not having to deal with compatibility issues makes this fantastic package even better.

I love precision equipment and tools! When I added up all of the extras and figured out what they would cost separately, it was a clear cut decision to go with the package…especially a package like this one!
