I'm saying this in reference to bows in general. Like speed bows or smoth drawing single cams. Lately where I have been shooting more and more different bows at the shop I have learned that I am willing to lose fps to have a bow that draws smooth. Like for instance, as most of you remember I was about to buy a Tribute and went and shot one and I didn't care for the draw at all (with both speed and "smooth" mods). I then went and shot Ross again and decided that it was no contest with me. I decided to get a 337 for hunting and more specifically spots when I get the Cardiac in. I just needed a bow to get me through just in case the Cardiac doesn't get here in time. I got to shoot a Vectrix tonight because they had JUST gotten a lefty in and I have to admit it was pretty nice. If I were to get a hybrid cam bow it would DEFINATELY be a Vectrix, but they are REALLY heavy compared to others. Despite being heavy it seemed to hold on the target really well and didn't want to jump out of your hand at all. If I for some reason don't like the Cardiac when it gets here I'll trade it in for a Vectrix. So what kind of bows do you guys seem to prefer?

Cougar I am sure there are a lot more knowledgablebow hunterson here then me but I can tell you this for a FACT ...no matter how fast that bow is the sound will get to the deer before the arrow does ... after alomost 30 years of bow hunting my first and foremost consideration is stealth during and after the shot ..

When shooting from my treestand... I tend to lean forward.
I don't really care what bow I shoot. I like quiet, and little shock, and it has to fit me. Other than that, I don't care who made it, what pattern it is, what the KE is... long as I can shoot it well.

Personally, I got the best of both worlds. My Vectrix is super smooth, and shooting 320 fps.....Why settle for one if you can get both?

. Can't seem to find the weight of them on their website, maybe they're afraid to put it. It's gotta be about 5lbs. In all seriousness I like the looks of the Vectrix, but I'm done buying bows for this year.
