Default I shot it.......and bought it.

It was a miserable day, weatherwise in SW PA today, and with a doe in PA and little buck in WV under my belt, I decided to relax today. Then...I get a call from my local bow shop, and the owner tells me Tony Tazza from Hoyt is stopping by with the new bows. Before he got "Taz" out of his mouth, I wasstanding in his shop,fondling it....the Tricon XL.Man isit a sweet shooting bow. I thoughtmyXtec was a smooth shooter, huh-uh. Not even close. This bow doesn't move in your hand.The particular bow I shot was60lb., 29" drawwith 80% let off. It shot 261 with an extremely heavy new Easton arrow, weighing9.9 gr. per inch, probably28-29 in. long with 4" vanes and 100gr tip. 30 or so shots with it, and I was sold. Ordered myself a 60lb, 28" draw Tricon XL with 65% let off. It should be here just in time for indoor spot leagues. I won't sleep for 3 months...

I also appreciate Mr. Tazza taking a few moments to talk to me today about getting the right set up for myself. He is a class act.
