Believe they are $799(dont quote me on this) and worth every penny.
 
So there better than a Osprey?
This is an opinion, but I have had both. And I only shoot the AE now. The osprey is cast with plastic parts, the AE is machined with all aluminum parts. The AE is shorter tip to tip ranging from 38-42 depending on draw(short,med,long) and the osprey is 44 or 45 depending on draw. At the same poundage my AE hits harder. I feel it is a superior bow , and it will be built to fit your needs.
 
We are moving forward and worked with programmer last night for a couple hours. The programming for the new risers should be done by the end of this week and I expect the rest of programming I need for the other parts shortly after this. I am working on cutting fixtures as well at this time. Also have purchased three double vises and have redesigned molds to to speed up cycle times for production. Once we work through any issues plans are to build 25 bows a month. Hope this helps.
 
Imo the AE is well worth the wait ive got an osprey and an AE the ae is smoother and hits way harder at the same poundage . I like the short tip to tip at 38 inches the osprey is a fine bow but im on the list for another ae and a couple of my buddies have shot my ae and are on the list to . When i get my next one ill have an osprey for sale.

damn hacksaw buy me one or just give me the one i shot at the open ill be happy
 
I've shot & or owned the following bows, hands down the AE is better than all these...

- Ospreys
- LFM (my back-up)
- Screamers
- Tomcat XD
- Onieda Discovery aka The Deathscovery (wifey's bow)
- Onieda Discovery Monster Hybrid (its what I shoot now)
- Shot (2) 5150 Anglers
- PSE Discovery 2's
- Browning & PSE Cudas
- Miro Midas
- Genesis
- Fish Hawk

this is just my opinion & I suggest that anyone looking for a new bow shot the one they think they want & a few others before they spend the $ on one... I'm not saying the bows above are junk or subpar to an AE, I'm just saying an AE is a solid well built bow that is exactly what I want in a bowfishing bow... I dont own an AE, yet but have shot Skippys, Nate's, Tara's & Travis, all of which I wish were mine... I did draw back the one that Joe built for the raffle & surely wish I had bought some tickets but didnt & the guy that won it is in love now... someday I'll own an AE or two & sell most of myu collection because I dont need dust collectors
 
Trashman there is no way im getting rid of the one ive got now lol. Ive put thousands of arrows thru it since then and it has performed flawlessly ive shot close to a thousand fish with it since the us open.
 
If you can only buy one and you can't shoot both side by side? I'd go with the AE. A lot higher quality with a harder hitting cam. :tu:
