By Curt Wells

This company's best selling bow, the Griz ($599), blends speed and forgiveness. Length is 33.38". A brace height of 6.88" provides enough power stroke to produce speeds up to 312 fps, and a hybrid cam design smoothes out the draw cycle.

If you're looking for something unique, consider Full Force's newest bow, The Addiction ($699). The geometry makes this bow stand out from other designs, and the Nitrous Cams crank out IBO speeds of 337-342. The Static Free Cable guard pivots at full draw to reduce bow torque, and spring-loaded Double String Arrests tame string oscillation.

The FFXS ($549) and Thunder ($599) remain unchanged for 2010 except for the addition of the new String Arrest.

The Technology Behind BLOCK & GlenDel Targets

Curt Wells of Bowhunter TV visits with Chris James of FeraDyne Outdoors at the 2025 Archery Trade Show in Indianapolis, where they discuss the innovative technologies behind two of the most well-known target brands on the market — BLOCK and GlenDel. BLOCK, of course, features layered foam technology, essentially stopping arrows with friction instead of force. Not only is that easier on your arrows, but also results in easier arrow removal. What's not as known by archers is that the same layered technology is also used in the GlenDel 3-D targets under an added overmold.

Kimber O'Dell of FeraDyne Outdoors discusses all the features of the new Rhino Low Hub Pro FD hunting blind with Bowhunter TV's Curt Wells at the 2025 ATA Show. Rhino's top-end blind for 2025 showcases lower hubs — meaning the windows start closer to the ground — which is excellent for kids or shorter bowhunters that no longer have to worry about getting themselves high enough to shoot clearly over the windows. FD stands for "Full Door," allowing easy entry and exit for even the tallest bowhunters while toting a backpack, bow, and any other gear that may come along to the field that day.
