Default Bow Question

I am thinking about getting a XP Series Bow from Bass Pro. Anybody have any experience with them, good or bad?

Default RE: Bow Question

I just looked at them and they look to be a Hoyt designed bow, or possibly a renamed Reflex line. Good bows I have no doubt, never seen or shot one though.

I would advise against getting a bow from basspro or Cabela's though, even if you are going in the store to get it. If you are a newer archer I would highly suggest a reputable small pro shop instead. Might cost you a bit more, but I bet the service might be a bit better.

Not always the case though, some small shops are not that great, and some of the larger chains have some decent people behind the counter, but it's a rarity more than a given from what I have seen.

I would strongly advise against getting one from the internet unless you are an advanced archer with a decent knowledge of tuning and set up. And then I still don't think it's a great idea to be honest.
