undefinedIt’s Easter Monday and with spring finally springing, it’s time to get out and shoot our bows. If you happen to be in the market for a new one, check out my roundup of new compounds for 2014.

The bows that really caught my attention are faster than the speed bows of just a few years ago while offering much more forgiveness than the speed bows of the past.

While you may have a couple others to add, I'm betting our lists overlap more often than not.

Click here to get a look at some of 2014's top new compound bows.
