Default RE: HOYT BOWS

Mord. buddy, what can I help you with? <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

Yes, Chiefheadhunter is correct. The ZR200 limb version of the Havoctec will allow you to shoot a 34 inch axle to axle length bow...but it also slows the arrow speed down a little when compared with the same cam on an XT2000 version of the Havoctec which is 31.5 inches.

The Havoctec was only introduced in 2002. There is no 2001 model Havoctec. Though there is a 2001 model Havoc which was 34 inches from axle to axle.

Shops in my area have the ZR200 version of the Havoctec priced around $460, so if you can get it for $410.00 then I would think it is a steal!

The XT2000 version sells for around $570 at a minimum.

Both the 2001 Havoc and 2002 Havoctec (regardless of which limb) were offered with both the Command Cams(2001)/Command Cams Plus (2002) and the Versa Single cam. All of these cams are adjustable in draw length with the use of an inner cam draw length adjustment module. No bow press is needed nor are multiple modules.

But, the 2001 Havoc was also offered with the Saber single cam which is not adjustable in draw length.

Any of the 2002 model Hoyt bows that have the Excel cam are, basically, not adjustable in draw length.

So, you are going to want to look at either a Versacam or Command Cams Plus model bow for 2002.

As for all of the different models.....

With XT2000 limbs

Havoctec: 31.5 length, 7.5 inch brace height, 3 lb 4 ounce mass weight, IBO speeds are generally around 300 fps depending on cam. Price is around $570

Hypertec: 33 inch axle to axle length, 6 inch brace height, 320 IBO speed, 3 lbs 8 ounces $600-$615

Cybertec: 36 inch length, 6.75 inch brace height, between 304-309 IBO speed, under 4 lbs mass weight, $600

Ultratec: 38 inch length, 7 inch brace height, around 300 IBO speed, about 4 lbs mass weight, $600-$625

Protec: 38-42 inch length, 8.25 inch brace height, around 295 IBO speed, about 4 lbs mass weight, $600-$625

Vortec: 37 inch axle to axle length, 7.5 inch brace height, around 295 IBO speed, under 4 lb mass weight, $450 (only available with ZR200 limbs)

All of the above bows have machined aluminum risers. The following bows use cast Magnesium risers

Magnatec: 35 inch axle to axle length, Under a 4 lb mass weight, 7 inch brace height, 300 IBO speed, $390

MTSport: 34.5 inch axle to axle length, Under 4 lb mass weight, 8.5 inch brace height, 280-290 IBO speed, $250 (only available with ZR200 limbs).

As far as the ZR200 limbs go, add roughly 3 inches to the axle to axle length on the bows that they are available on and subtract roughly $110 in price.

Certain models are also available with XT3000 and LXPro limbs that add to the bows axle to axle length.

I hope this makes it a little simpler for you.
