I have the Realm. Shot the X too when shopping. Was a toss up between them. I got the shorter one just got the fact I mainly treestand Hunt. Great shooting bow and easy to tune.

IMO if bowtech didn’t have the limb issues a few years ago they would be tops on a lot of people list. That has all been cleared up (at least I haven’t heard of any since they brought the manufacturing back in house). They are super easy to tune (they claim the most tunable bow on the planet), have technology not found on any other bow and flat out shoot. You could call me a fan boy, I’ve shot nothing but bowtech (although I did take all other manufacturers bow through the feel out process before may last purchase) so take my opinion for what it’s worth, my opinion. I would jump on it if it feels and shoots good for you.

I honestly avoided Bowtech for years because of the limb issues. They seem to have it figured out now. The Realm is my first BT and it's a GREAT shooting bow! Really enjoying it so far.

I have a realm X and love it. I shoot it better than any bow I have ever had. I went from a Halon and will never look back.

I’ve shot nothing but Bowtech (except in a shop). Limb issues are definitely fixed and I really like how tunable they are. I’m shooting last year’s reign yet.

Shooting the rein 6 and love it. Second season on it. Shot insanity for 3 seasons and loved that as well. Went to Prime ion and liked it but never fell in love like my bowtechs. So back to bowtech and rein 6. Favorite so far.

I've been shooting my Bowtech Experience since 2013. It shoots amazing. So what's a dumb guy do...go to the archery shop & shoot the Realm X. Now I have bow envy. But I've been looking at the tradbows as well. Hmm.
