Picked up a used Hoyt today,awesome deal
A guy my brother knew was desperate for $, and was getting out of archery. Has back problems also I guess. Anyways my brother told me he had a modern Hoyt he was selling dirt cheap. I went to the guys house today, and turns out to be a 2000, or 2001 Magnatec w/XT-2000 limbs. As matter of fact the guy claims he just had these limbs put on it new, before last fall. He bought it new w/ 65-80 lb rated limbs, and realized it was way to much. So had them replaced with the next limb down I believe is 45-65lb limbs. It has the factory package on it, 2 prong rest, hoyt fiber pins sight. He included half dozen XX75 2117 arrows, and a HHA release. He let me have it for $150! I wasn' t in the market for another bow, just bought a new Champion last spring. But I know this bow went for over $500 new, as my other brother has the same exact Hoyt, and thats what he paid $520 for his. How could I resist, make an excellent backup for me.
My only problem with the bow is the draw is 29-31" cam. I shoot a 27" draw, so have to pickup a new cam for it. Do I contact Hoyt for a cam, or go to a dealer? I checked Hoyt' s website, and it doesn' t show anything on older models or cams.
