Default RE: Info on X-force

And the X-Force is not all that impressive. To go from a Hoyt to a PSE is like going from Ruth Chris to McDonalds...or ok, maybe Lonestar. Still, if you want a speed bow, go check out a High Country.
I second that! IMO 15-20 years ago PSE made agood product. For the last10 years or so the bows have had the most problems of almost any bow manufacture. But people still buy them becasue they easy on the wallet. My dad went that route a few years back he had a old Fred Bear Whitetail ll and thought he needed to upgrade. He didn't want to spend much money. Against my advice he bought a PSE NOVA dual cam bow packageon a clearence sale, for a local sporting goods store. The single cam nova's had just came out.This bow ended up being not much of a upgrade, infact he had many many problems with it. His 15 year old bear bow was a better bow overall. He hated shooting his PSE and ended up giving it away to a friend and he also gave up bowhunting. He never was big into archery and archery hunting, so I can't blame the bow, but on the other hand this bow didn't help the situation out either. Thestore he bought it from deals mostly in guns and rifle hunting. They are in no way a pro shop, and they didn't even set his bow up or try to tune it. He had to take it to a pro shop to do that.Anyway I wouldwait to hear actualin field reports before buying this newPSE X bow. At 350 f/s the term "parts flying everyware" might just come true lol.We shall see.
