RE: Shot the new Hoyts last night!!!
I also just shot them, I am at work as we speak actually. They are all very nice bows. We got the same shipment yooper is talking about. The new "Z3" cam, pulls a little harder towards the back end but has quiet a bit of valley to it. Still a VERY sweet shooting cam.
I can't believe Yooper didn't comment on the weight difference. I picked up the Katera first and my first words were, "Wow they are a lot lighter." Last year I think they tipped the scales at about 5,2lbs and this year the Katera is around 4,7 I believe. That's a big plus.
As Yoop mentioned, the camo does look very good, I like it alot, but it honestly doesnt differentiate that much between last years. The finsish however seems to be a bit smoother, which I like. The green and cream strings also compliment the bow pretty well, we'll see if they turn out like the usual Fuse garbage. Hopefully they don't. Usually Fuse strings have way too many lemons in the bunch. They seem to be about half and half ratio between good and bad.
They shot just as smooth and shock free as the last year Vulcan/Vectrix. Still some sweet shooters, I may take a few pics, they will be with my phone though.
