RE: Hoyt vs. Mathews
After Shooting the big three I picked the BowTech. I shot the Hoyt Trykon & Trykon XL, Mathews Switchback & BowTech Tribute.
In my hands the BowTech just felt right. So I bought the BowTech Tribute.:) The Bow I owned before I shot the big three was a Darton Typhoon. Darton makes a good bow & I did like my Typhoon. I just wanted to try something new. I am notpumping the BowTech line. Do yourself a favor and at least shoota BowTech before you buy a Hoyt or Mathews. Maybe you will like theBowTech bows, maybe you will not??? The only reason I even shot a BowTech? I had to shoot one for myself just to find out what all this BowTech talk was about? I shot the Tribute & feel in love with the way it shot. I also liked the 31-1/2 inch axle to axlecombined with a 7-1/2 inch brace height.Can you say tree stand/ground blind bow.;) |
RE: Hoyt vs. Mathews
ORIGINAL: maytom ORIGINAL: D.Parsons How come pepole on here can not read??It is personal PREFERANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What I am doing is I am shooting many different bows to find the one that I want to purchase. After I shoot, I come to these forums and ask around to find out if anyone has shot the same bow as I did, and try to get their reactions/thoughts. Right now I am not biased towards any brand. Yes, Hoyt felt better in my hand, but, if I find that I like PSE more than anything in the end, that is what I will buy. I said before and I will say again, this is only my opinion and I am wondering if anyone else has felt the same. I shot another Mathews Switchback this morning along with Hoyt, Browning and a very old Oneida. Again, in my opinion, the top felt heavy on the Switchback. This is my opinion and it is not "wayoff the truth" because it is my opinion. If this makes you upset, then please stop reading because over the next month, I am going to shootmany other bows. If I find out that one bow farts every time I shoot it, then I am going to post a message saying that this is what I found......and I am wondering if anyone else has felt the same. Besides, if you agree that choosing a bow is a personal prefference, then you must agree thateach bow fits each individual differently. My findings, being 100% different from yours, are still valid because of this. |
RE: Hoyt vs. Mathews
All I am saying is this, by posting what you find and get pepole
tell you what they find is you find the pepole that have the same likes as you.We all can do that after shooting a certain bow.It is not hard to find pepole with the same likes or dislikes as yourself on this site!! All bows will have FOLLOWERS!!! |

RE: Hoyt vs. Mathews
ORIGINAL: MDBUCKHUNTER In my opinion, Hoyt was the better bow.I am also wondering why Mathews bows seem so top heavy? |
RE: Hoyt vs. Mathews
I just bought a Trykon after shooting many different bows. If your buying a top of the line bow and spending $700+, it's certainly going to be a well-engineered weapon regardless of the name on it. The difference is in shooting styles and the physical make-up of the shooter. Back in 1980 my Darton SL-50 felt like heaven, as did my Bear recurve in 1971. I probably wouldn't feel the same aboutthem today.
By the way, I bought the Trykon because as a product of the '50s, I felt it was time to "bowdown" (50-60lbs from 60-70lbs), and being a Hoyt guy, the Trykon caught my eye. But I did shoot a Switchback andconsidered crossingover to the "Dark Side"!

RE: Hoyt vs. Mathews
