Retail Prices will be close to the following or more:

Phantom X4 $450
Bengal $500
Alien $800
Nemesis 35 $850
Scepter V $900
Seeker $950

Blade X4 $350
Prowler $450
Pantera $550
Onza XT $650

Wow, great line-up! I really like the Nemesis, Alien and Seeker and the Diablo has my attention. The Seeker is for sure a great concept. Martin has a great range, 30 - 40'' axle to axle and a nice poundage range. Well done Martin, 2013 is going to be a great year!

Any idea when these bows will be available for purchase? Specifically the Blade x4.

im highly dissappointed in the 2013 lineup. i hate being the negative person, but according to the specs, they just arent making progress, after owning a single cam martin bow, they just dont have the speed other bows have, i will be purchasing a new bow next year after deer season and spring turkey is over, and unfortunately, it will not be a martin, i hate to be a sellout, but its reality

i keep seeing ppl commenting on the seeker and prowler as if they have never seen these bows, this is the seekers 2nd or third year out, it used to be an alien, and the prowler is the exact same as the 2012 prowler.

It is what it is. It's a step in the right direction for some parts and a side-step in others. Just depends on how you look at it. Things are only going to continue. I think now that they are focusing on one brand we could see some really nice things going forward. There are a few new compounds, but I think they are pretty similar to each other as far as overall specs are concerned.

I think being able to focus time/efforts into one brand is going to open up a lot of opportunities for them in the near future. Hope to see things continue to progress and evolve.

The Phantom X4 is very interesting.

X2 I would like to check it out in person







Hutch:cool:

Can we get a confirmation that the Onza XT is a 7" BH. The current XT and Onza are spec'd at 7.25"

I love Martin bows, but the 2013 line up is a big disappointment to me.
