Hey guys I got a first bow tonight its a Hoyt Intruder. Its a used bow but its in pretty good condition and I got a good deal on it. I wanted to do a tune up for it at bass pro or gander. How much would a tune up cost. I would like to get new strings and make sure everything is alligned and good to shoot. The bow came with a single pin tru glow sight and a camo hoyt usa quiver and a whisker basket holder with a camo stabalizer. (These things really don't mean much, but they're accessories, nonetheless) I would like to maybe put the stings that are on the Hoyt on another older bow whose strings are crappy and get new ones for the hoyt. (Unless the other bow takes strings that are the exact length of those the Hoyt Intruder takes, you can't do this. If you want a set of strings for it at a decent price, PM MeanV and he can get you a set of Vapor Trails for around $60 or so TYD, then you can look at having the bow tinkered with.)
Not trying to bust your bubble, but it's difficult for some people to understand that strings need to be made to specific lengths and such. I have a older Hoyt Striker II, which is from the same era as the Intruder. It's a great shooting bow, as a matter of fact, I'd rather shoot it than my Reflex Highlander because it shoots so nicely. And it's not a slo-poke either, I was getting 256fps with a 415gr arrow out of it at 58# and 29" and 247fps with a 440gr arrow.
