Hoyt VS. Reflex
 

I know they are the same company but is there a difference.As some of you might know I am a Hoyt fan and have been shopping for a new bow for a while now. There are soo many choices to choose from that I can't make up my mind.I was just looking at the Reflex bows in the Cabelas catalog. They look identical to the V tec. It is alot cheaper and they have it set up with the S Coil,Whisker Bisquit,copper john sight and Bohning quiver. I might go with that. Is there a difference in Hoyt and Reflex. Is the Super Slam the same bow as the V tec??

I shoot a Reflex and love it. And they are quite a bit cheaper than Hoyt. It is my understanding that Hoyt manufactured Reflex specifically for the hunting industry, while Hoyt was for competition. I think they realized the market for bows in the hunting industry was tremendous so they brought Hoyt bows over as well. Both good bows though.

Reflex are great bows--that BUCKSKIN looks very tempting to me!

I bought the Buckskin back in February. It's a nice little bow. The ATA is short, without being too short, the brace height is forgiving, and it weighs less than 4 pounds without anything on it. Only "drawback" is it doesn't have the space age looks of the other Reflex and Hoyt bows. I suppose the deer won't mind though.

I believe Reflex produces the older products of Hoyt with a different name, once hoyt quits making them. Or at least I think so.

The Buckskin is what I also shoot. I love it, it has a great feel to it!!!!

If I were buying a new bow today, it would probably be the reflex..... It's the same bow!! Just fewer bells and whistles......

I just bought a Vtec 2 days ago. I have to say that it was expensive but I won't buy another bow for a long time. It shoots oh so sweet. I installed a trophy taker rest, and fuse quiver, with gold tip pro hunter arrows, also the new limb saver stabilizer.

They are not just old hoyts, they use the same TEC and cam 1/2 technology but get the less expensive limbs and risers.

They are both good bows, I would not hesitate to shoot a reflex.

Hoyt has laminated limbs, Reflex doesn't.

High end reflex has magnesium risers. Lower ends reflex doesn't.

I wouldn't hesitate to get a Reflex, Hoyts are WAY too high for me.

It's 20 % good average bow, 80% Hunter (practice and perserverance).
