And from all the archery boards I visit its, showing. Even the hoyt dealers who also sell bowtech, are saying thier sales of hoyts are sagging.
I hope hoyt comes out with something very innovative. Keeps the others on thier toes.

Why is that so bad? Because bowtech came out with some of the most innovative designs since the straight limb bow. And in this business, you got to keep innovating.

The dealers in this area have been saying the same thing. Hoyt has been lagging behind Mathews for a few years now, and Mathews is starting to slip as Bowtech moves intoa new era of bow design. I still have a sweet spot for Hoyts. They look good and feel right to me. Don't care if I ever break 300 fps.

The Vectrix is a nicer bow to shoot than the Trykon. The Trykon isn't available for 08 I belive. The new Katera XL is a sweet shooting bow also.Got to shoot them alast week at my dealer.
Snood - haven't heard any problems about the cams. got a link to that ? I'd like to read about it. You will miss the draw stop if the cams are leaning/out of time.

I was considering a trykon before I got my commander. Have they fell completely off the radar screen?

MIkey, here is a link to a recent one. Seems to be only a few here and there. I don't think it is that big of a deal, but something you should definitely check to make sure isn't going to occur on yours if you own one. Pretty bad if it were to happen, but sounds like a pretty easy thing to fix.

I was told that the Hoyt Vectix is nothing more than a Trykon with some extra bells and whistles.I had been looking at them for the last 2-3 years, but when the Vectrix came out I fell in love!I have shot 2 deer already with it, I used to shoot a BowTec Pro 38, My Cabelas club Visa pulled through for me though i will be enjoying this bow for a long time
