Ok, went out and shot a couple bows. Now that I have that out of the way!! I shot an 06 Trykon first, then 07 Vectrix. In all honesty, they were pretty comparable. The Vectrix was quieter, but it also had a STS installed, where the Trykon did not. The TRykon had a tough spot just before the let-off and if you allowed it to creep, it wanted to get away from you, but I did not see a major problem with it. So given the price new being the same, I would go with the Vectrix, but I did not see anything wrong with the Trykon. If he dropped the price $50 on the Trykon, I would go that route. Now on to the Bowtechs. I shot a Tribute, an Allegience, and a Guardian. Again not a lot of difference. The Allegience was set up a bit long(1" too long), so it had a slightly more harsh feel, but all in all, thery were super quiet. I think all 3 were quieter than the Trykon, same as the Vectrix. The Hoyt's seemed like they balanced better to me after the shot, not hanging on, where the Bowtechs wanted to fall forward. I think I need to shoot my Reflex next to each of these bows, but I'm not sure I'm at the point of buying a new bow. Sure, i should get them set up with rest and sight like I want to be certain, but I figured if I shot the new ones, I would feel the need to upgrade, which I'm not sure about.
Ending thoughts____-----Even though the Hoyts had a more harsh draw cycle, they felt better in my hand, and with a meanV CSS would be great!
