RedHead RedHead® Kryptik® Compound Bow Packages
The secret is finally out on this advanced bow for hunters who demand high-end, high-performance archery gear! Our most versatile bow boasts lightning-fast speed and extreme maneuverability. Together, the 4" single cam system and 7-1/4" brace height provide a silky-smooth draw and a forgiving shot. The slim 2-piece grip, machined shelf, and thumb groove effectively narrow the distance between hand and arrow, for reduced vertical torque, additional stability, and increased accuracy. Easy to tune and adjust for a precise fit. Axle-to-axle length: 33-1/4". Brace height: 7-1/4". IBO speed: 312–315 fps. Weight: 3.15 lbs. Color: Realtree Hardwoods Green® HD™.Kryptik Bow features: “Beyond parallel” limbs offer 100% vertical travel, for a smooth pull and incredible stability at full draw!Riser: 6061 T6 machined aluminum with ISO grid cutouts for extreme rigidity with maximum stability and accuracy. Stabilizer inserts at both front and rear of riser allow easy mounting of accessories. Single Cam System: Adjustable draw stop designed to let you fine-tune your draw length. Select any let-off from 65–80% (preset at 80% let-off). Limb Design: Vertical Force Technology: any power not directly converted to arrow speed is dispersed away from the riser, equally in opposite directions, virtually eliminating hand shock and recoil. The Kryptik limb design includes a split limb which distributes stress evenly and provides less mass, attributing to the low level of noise. Pivoting Limb Pockets: in conjunction with Vertical Force Technology, designed to achieve consistent efficiency when reducing the bow’s peak draw weight. Strings, Silencers, and Cable Rod Dampener: Pre-stretched at 425 lbs. of tension, strings are served under 400 lbs. and manufactured using 452X material for ultimate arrow speed and stability. Equipped with an advanced noise/oscillation/vibration arresting system.

By rubberfrogonthebottom
from Cincinnati, Ohio
Advantages: Durability, Ease of use, Performs well, Quality, Value for money, one sweet looking bow, t-6061 aluminum is superior material, stealth factor, lighted sight out of the box is an excellent addit
"I visited the Bass Pro in Cincinnati. Justin Knick there helped me twice. I was in a hurry to get a bow and bought the Kronik for an upcoming hunt. That hunt didn't happen. I looked a little closer and decided to go with the Kryptik. Justin helped me again with excellent advice, customer service and his tremendous knowledge. My experience there in the Cincinnati store was first class. The exchange was effortless. Justin set up the new Kryptik lefthander he orderd in for me in no time and now i can't wait to get out and get in the deerstand. BassPro and Bowtech have an excellent piece of gear with this product. Thank you Justin Knick for your tremendous service and skill and Bass Pro for great products. The best combination anyone could ask for in Retailer."

Great Bow,
January 25, 2009
By hunter8x8
from Seward, Ne
"Ordered the Kriptic bow with kit, dressed it and started shooting. Was lucky, but never had to move a pin. Did have a viberation but found the the upper limb was missing a screw that secured it to the base. Must have been overlooked at the factory. Local hardware store fixed that. Cant wait for turkey season now."

This Bow is Awsome!!!!!!!!,
October 1, 2008
By poeboy18
from Louisville, KY
"I have bow hunted for 15 years, and owned Hoyts, PSE's, Golden Eagle's. When I started looking for new bows I looked at the Mathew DXT, Diamond Marquis, and several others. Then I looked at the Kryptik at the Clarsville IN store. This bow is a steal for the money it quiet, fast and hits with a punch. You could buy this bow and still have money left over to get some near gear. Thanks BassPro and BowTech for making a such a great bow."

Amazing Bow!!!,
September 8, 2008
By BriscoeJG
from Fayetteville, AR
"I was looking long and hard at the Bowtech General and Mathews S2. I shot both and couldn't make up my mind. My biggest hang up was mainly price, until I was in Broken Arrow, OK and shot the Red Head Kryptic. This bow shot with the best. It might have the smoothest draw of any of the bows I shot. I added a string stop and alpha shox to what was already an amazingly quite bow. The guys in the archery department were great. They worked hard to set up my bow to my specifications. They not only installed parts that I purchased at the store but switched my sight and rest from my old bow. They also made sure my first sight pin was accurate at their indoor archery range. Overall this was an amazing experience. Not only were the guys in the archery department helpful, but I figure I ended up saving around $250 versus buying what I originally set out to buy...and the best part is I didn't have to sacrifice a thing. Thanks Bass Pro Shops!"

"I hunted with this bow all year long, I wouldn't trade it for the world. Not only is it fast and quite but it is light weight. I had no problems out of this bow whatso ever. I wanted to use it for a season before I actually wrote a review on it. I shot 11 deer with it and I have no complaints what so ever its great. Thanks to Bass pro and Bow tech"

An Excellent Purchase,
March 7, 2008
By doublelungshot
from Kansas
"the guys at bass pro are certainly no fools! they had bowtech build them a KILLER! With the price right around 750 for a package, you cant go wrong. you may get some looks with redhead on the limbs, but the mathews and hoyt guys are realizing they have to respect it. Smooth as butter from first effort to full draw. comfortable handle, light weight, and blazing speed without sacrificing noise. ive seen this bow chronographed side by side with a Diamond Black Ice and consistently be 3-4 fps FASTER! only downside is the string, it wont hold up for more than one season."

Could Not Be Happier!!!!,
July 30, 2007
By buckfever
"To the point, this bow really surprised me. The Draw was sooo smooth and at the release, the bow hardly moved... Accurate and Quiet and really light at 3.15lbs. I really don't know what else to look for in a bow but I think this has it all. I also found out by a friend of mine who works with bowtech that this was made by them with a lifetime warranty..."
