Default RE: I bit the bullet.....HOYT

I don't know what to say to all this exactly.


As far as being pressured by my boss to shoot Hoyt, not so much. I have got him on the verge of buying a Ross for target. Would you call that advertisment on my part? I would. Me and him played around with it today and his exact words were, "You've got me wanting one of these, I bet I could drive tacks with this thing". Honest to God that's what he said. That's coming from a HOYT staff shooter. He is actually dying to get Ross into the shop but due to dealer agreements and a shop being about 20mi away, it's not possible at the moment.

I love my Ross, I absolutely LOVE it. Great bow, no handshock, quietest bow I've seen at the range yet. Ross IS and will REMAIN #1 in my book. Just because I was THINKING about a Hoyt, does that justify the 3rd degree from my fellow HNI'ers? Probably not. Everyone that comes into the shop asking about Mathews EVERY single worker there says, "If you're looking for a single cam bow, those Ross's are GREAT bows." That's the main reason I take my bow with me to the shop, is to show other people. When I actually go shoot it, all I hear from the other people is just how good it looks and just how quiet it is.

You guys are making it seem that I am betraying Ross's because I shot and was mearly THINKING about buying another bow. I have or will have 2 Ross's. To me that would indicate some brand loyalty, but obviously I am dumber than dirt and don't know anything.

I know they are giving me a bow and everything, but I just don't know how much longer my patience is going to go. I was told by Angie that they would give me a bow at the end of February. I recieved a call at from Mr.Mike Osbourn in May sometime. I was completely bowless from February until a week ago when I got the 337. How many of you guys think you could stand being perfectly healthy and not shooting for 5months? I have shot 1200 arrows thru that 337 in a week, I honestly can't get tired of shooting it. My plans were origanlly to only have the Cardiac, but it getting so close to hunting season I had to buy a bow.


As to my fellow HNI'ers, I think it's time for me to take some time off from this place. So guys, continue to flame away, I'm done posting in this thread and the forums for a little while. Have fun and Take care.
