OK folks. I've pretty well made up my mind to buy a Hoyt bow because of the fact there is a dealer close buy who carries them in stock and has a practice range there where I can shoot them. Plus he'll set it up for me also so I don't have to worry about tuning it or anything. (still too new at this sport to try it myself) Now, which Hoyt do I buy? I really liked the PSE Team Fitzgerald bow that I saw at this other shop because it has short limbs and was very compact and light. But it only had a 29" draw length and 65lbs. max pull. My bow I'm shooting now is a 31" draw length and 70lb max pull. I see that a lot of Hoyt's bows are shorter than the PSE I looked at (axle 2 axle length) and the "TEC" models are all about the same weight. Any opinions (dumb question to ask on here) about which Hoyt "TEC" bow I should consider?

KEEP IT LEGAL. KEEP IT SAFE. OR WE MAY NOT GET TO KEEP IT AT ALL.

First off Hoyt has gone to all Dual Cam Bows with their new line. So If your looking for a dual cam bow your in luck. The Shop I shoot at, said to get the Bow Comparable to my Legacy, is the Hoyt Utlra-tec, it's $900+ just for the Bow, and that doesn’t include the new cam Spiral Can & ½ (315 fps). And I wouldn’t buy a bow out of convenience. Buy a bow that feels good to you and meets all of your hunting needs.

Technically speaking, the new Hoyts are not dual cams, they are technically single cams or, as Hoyt calls them, a cam and a half. I really like the looks of the Cybertech with the Darton....I mean cam and a half system.

Start with the Razortec and go from there...<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>. Hoyt's new Cam and a Half system is really something.

I posted my experiences with the Razortec on a detailed thread over in the Bowhunting Equipment forum if you are interested.

I bought the MagnaTec two years ago and love it. You didn't mention
what kind of budget you have. The Magnatec ran me about 425 bucks.
I would have loved to spend more but by the time I was done I was still at 700. One piece of advice, pay the extra for the good limbs, the XT2000 or XT3000(I'm not sure which is better). The ZR200 are a solid glass limb and not as consistent or smooth as the laminate
limbs. I'm no expert but that's how it was explained to me, alot of
shops spend less and put the ZR200 on the floor for spec buyers. Do yourself a favor and order what you want and wait the 2 weeks. Have you determined what your actual draw length is? The bow should fit you not you fit the bow. You're going to spend alot of time with it, you might as well be happy with your purchase. Good luck!

Go into the bow shop and shoot them all. get whatever one fits you the best. Dont worry about the model, go with the feel. (You will know it when you feel it.) I am very happy with my magnatech, but by no means did I go into my proshop with my mind made up on a magnatech, or hoyt at all for that matter. I shot alot of different brands and models. When I shot the magnatech, I knew it was for me.

I also shoot the Magnatec with the XT2000 limbs and the Versa Cams (2002). I love it!! Hope to start hunting with it next season!! The bow only cost me $330.00 not a bad price new from the dealer!!

I shoot a HavocTec, paid $580 for it, love to shoot it! Little vibration, quiet too. Plus it's short ATA is great for treestand hunting.

I shot the new Hoyt Supertech a couple of weeks ago. This bow is super fast and almost whisper quiet, but this bow has a 6inch brace height and if you are not an experienced shooter with perfect form this bow is not for you. If you like speed and want a bow that is a little more forgiving try the Razortech. By the way I am shooting High Country now but I still have my Hoyt Tenacity and use it as a backup bow and still love the way it shoots as much today as the day I bought it. Shoot several differnt models before you choose one but you cant go wrong with any Hoyt product that you feel comfortable with. Good luck HC4

Budbowhunter, I shot a Razortec yesterday and was very impressed. The Cybertec looks nice as well. Very quiet and no recoil or vibration. The cam & 1/2 system is very smooth to draw. If you want a Hoyt, I'd try these two.

&quot;Could you guys be quiet, my dad's trying to shoot.&quot;<img src=icon_smile_shock.gif border=0 align=middle>
