Bear Archery announced today the launch of an all-new compound bow to join the 2019 lineup and disrupt the entire compound bow market. The Divergent is rooted in inspiration from Fred Bear, the company’s founder, who developed a legacy of innovation and a heritage of introducing new technologies that are accessible to everyone.
Designed for the whitetail bowhunter in mind, the Divergent offers amazing performance in a short 28” axle-to-axle, weighs only 3.9 lbs., and will not break your wallet. With speeds of 338 feet per second, the Divergent’s compact platform and hybrid cams give shootability a whole new meaning. The Divergent shatters the price-to-performance ratio with a retail price of $699.99.
“We are proud to continue the tradition of making archery accessible for everyone by introducing the Divergent,” says Dave Parker, Archery General Manager. “A bow with this speed, this shootability and this compact size and weight should cost $1,100, but we are delivering it to retail for $699.99.”
The Divergent is equipped with the Bear Hinge Guard System, which reduces lateral load, Naro Grip to eliminate hand torque, and the ShockWaves limb dampening system which reduces vibration and noise. The draw length is adjustable from 25.5” to 30” with a 6.5” brace height.
The Divergent is available in both 45-60 lb. and 55-70 lb. draw weights and right- and left-hand versions. Choose from six finishes including Realtree Edge, Veil Stoke, One Nation Midnight, Kryptek Highlander, True Timber Kanati, and Iron.
