Congrats again Don- yeesh. You are the steal of a deal KING!

The GTO was the ONLY bow that caused my local tech/dealer to stop shooting Hoyt for the past 10 years. He's a short draw guy and with cam fiddling was able to get his bow shooting 317 IBO at his 27" draw length. Thats SCREAMING for a 7" brace height and 2FPS faster than I was able to get my GT-500 to shoot at 29/5 grains (albeit a 60 pounder so I'd prolly pick uo 5 or 6 more FPS at 70/5grains).

They had a 29" GTO come in that for whatever reason would shoot in the low 350s all day long- but most of them shot in the mid 340s range. After handling one I'll admit there is something EXTREMELY special about that bow compared to the rest of Kevin's bows- It's quieter, it's faster, it's smoother to draw and smoother to shoot, and by all accounts is easy peasy to shoot. The GT-500 comparitively is a step back. Not far, but it is.

The tech is back to shooting a Bone Collector AM32 this year as he's a friend of Waddell, but I get the feeling he's not quite as enamored with it after a few weeks shooting it as he is of the GTO. I know for the me the ZTRs on the Alpha take some getting used to compared to a Binary cam bow-probably for him too.

Finding the GTOs and XXL bows is fairly easy, but modules are very scarce.
