In 2000 I decided to get back into archery/bow hunting. I got a PSE Nova and set it up myself. That alone was an experience since things had changed just a little bit since 1979 when I got out of archery. Anyway, I shot everyday and fell in love. Iknew this was no passing fancy anddecided to upgrade to a premium set up. After shooting just about every bow made I settled on the 2001Hoyt Vortech.I know the new bows are faster but it's going to take more than speed to get me to part with it. It is a sweet bow and we work well together.
