My work sent me out on a road trip to a town i've never been.And right across the street from my job site was a Bow shop.So i just had to pop in and see what they had.
It was a really nice shop,mounts all over the walls owner has taken over several years of bow hunting.Many whitetails,Elk,And some african game.
I found out that the guy is a Certified Tech for Hoyt and Mattews.And has been in buissness since 1968.So i got to asking questions about the two bows and Companies.In his words,Hoyt has more to offer in Accessories and believes they are a better made bow.And in all his years of servicing,Mattews bows seem to have more go wrong with them as far as machanical problems and warranty work than does The Hoyts.
I just bought a Hoyt Magna-Tec two years ago.And thats why i was interested in asking which bow he believed to be the better of the two.
So if anyone is looking at the new bows theres a little info i learned today myself i thought i would share with the board.

It's not how big the Deer,But the size of the experiance that matters!!

As the owner of a MagnaTec myself, I suspected that the Hoyts were a better built bow....LOL!!!!

I have known all along Hoyts were great bows, I'm on my second one, an Ultra tec

i have a mathews FX and i love it and i held a hoyt and i didnt like the grip on it

I just won't believe it. You can tell as many things as you want. I would still put my SQ2 up against anything.

But like fgdcd, I don't like the feel of the grip.
