Looking in to purchasing the Katera this year. Haven't bought a new bow in about 9 years; currently shoot the Jennings Machined Supreme XLR; yeah I know what your thinking, thats the bow that Bill Jordan used in the making of the FIRST Monster Bucks Videos. But you know I shoot good with it; notice I said good, not great. I am just wanting to hear some un-solicited opionions from HOYT owners and how they feel about their bows. I know their durable, have lifetime warranty on their limbs; which is a big selling point to me, considering the old lady will probably never let me buy a new bow again. The Z3 cam and 1/2 technology seems to be a popular trait. Just like to hear it from the front line on what you guys think.

well, I cant say anything bad about the bow, i love mine. I wish it came with the side plates instead of the full grip but that is just me. I love it as much as any Hoyt ive owned. You wont be disappointed with it at all!

There's simply nothing bad to say about it. It's a very smooth draw cycle, super quiet, fast.......incredibly shootable......Fuse stepped it up a notch w/ their strings this year (THANK GOODNESS!!) and there's no stretch. I bought my Vectrix Plus in late November, set the peep, and it hasn't moved at all. They're a TAD on the heavy side, but not bad. I think you'll be very happy with it.

The Katera is a really nice shooting bow. Very fast, has a short BH, but does not shoot like a short BH bow. I love the Z3 cam, very smooth draw. I went with the Katera XL for my 3D bow, I wanted a little longer bow for targets. The bow has a little more hand shock than my Mathews DXT, but still smoother than most of the other bows out there. I don't think you would be disappointed, in fact, you will love it like every other person that decides to shoot a Hoyt.

You really can't go wrong with any of these bows... They don't press speed bows, they make a bow with a GREAT combination of all attributes that make a bow productive.
