BEAR ARCHERY
ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY
The Heart of Bear Bows
We've always been proud of the bows we design and build. But as we look back at the family of past Bear bows with pride, we know that simply recycling old technology is not what we do. Every year, Bear engineers figure out new ways to make our bows lighter, stronger, faster and even more quiet. But we don't stop there. There are so many variables to consider when creating a better shooting bow. It's more than a numbers game. It's knowing the in's and out's of what a hunter wants. And that's what we're dead set on giving you: a bow that can go toe-to-toe with any bow in it's category – while delivering a far superior shooting experience.
All of the technology below wasn't just developed for our flagship bow. You'll find these features in several of our bows. And you'll find the knowledge we gained from developing these innovations in EVERY single Bear bow. In order to be called a Bear, a bow must deliver a certain level of performance. And we're proud of every single one of this year's Bear bows. And you'll find our dedication to archery innovation is at the heart of every one of them.
THE ALL-NEW FLAT TOP CAM
We don't do "conventional". When we designed the Anarchy, we took rules that others have placed on us and threw them out the window. And that's how Anarchy's Flat Top Cam was designed. While others are content with designing cams using tired, conventional methods, we're busy delivering faster speeds, a smoother draw and release, and a more solid wall – all wrapped up in a lighter cam. There's never been a bow like the Anarchy or a cam like the Flat Top.
THE ALL-NEW E2-CAM
When we introduced the Bear E-Cam, it was a huge leap forward in cam design. This year we set out to make it even better. The result was the new Bear E2-Cam. A faster, more efficient power source for the new Legion and Encounter bows. And while it delivers new levels of performance, it also delivers 1/2" draw length adjustments without the use of modules or a bow press.
THE ALL-NEW FH-CAM
This is the power house behind the all-new Siren bow. The FH-Cam was designed specifically "For Her". This masterpiece was not only designed to deliver performance along side short draw lengths – it was designed specifically in response to requests our top-tier female archers gave us. The FH-Cam has been field-tested and has proven its status as a killer cam.
THE SKELETON CAM
The Skeleton cam is one of the reasons that the Carnage became one of Bear's most popular compound bows in the company's history. Don't let its thin profile fool you. This cam delivers brutal speeds at a level of efficiency that is unheard of. The Skeleton cam takes smooth drawing and release to a whole new level.
THE E-CAM
When this cam was first tested, the level of efficiency it delivered made this work of art easy to name. "E" stands for "Efficiency". The Bear E-Cam set new industry standards in efficiency. And the fact that this cam is virtually bullet-proof meant it was the perfect fit for the Mauler bow. Strength combined with speed, a smooth draw and release – the E-Cam is pure Bear.
ZERO TOLERANCE LIMB CUP
Whether you're utilizing every bit of poundage our limbs can dish out or prefer a lower draw weight, you demand a consistent and tight limb-to-cup-to-riser fit. Our Zero Tolerance Limb Cup was designed to deliver just that. And the vibration-eliminating limb boot is just one more way we reduce hand shock at release.
NEW ADVANCED GRIP DESIGN
It's a dramatic leap forward in grip design. The Anarchy's grip was developed to eliminate hand torque and deliver unmatched accuracy – regardless of your desired grip setup. Whether it's the over-molded grip or the side panel grip, the Anarchy was designed to shoot flawlessly with both.
LIGHTWEIGHT, FORGIVING RISER
All strength. Zero excess. A long, forgiving riser doesn't have to mean a heavy riser.
MAX PRE-LOAD QUAD LIMBS
Smooth during draw and a silent, smooth, vibration-free source of undeniable Bear power at release.
DUAL ARC OFFSET STRING SUPPRESSORS
Keeping Bear bows shock-free and silent at release since 2008.
4X4 ROLLER GUARD
8 sealed ball bearings deliver the smoothest draw cycle and the maximum amount of efficiency.
