Default I bit the bullet.....HOYT

I was sitting there at the shop today talking to the owner, tweaking on the bow, and shooting some. The UPS man came bye and he got some new bows in. He opened one up and I was like WOW, a Left Handed one. It was a VectrixXL. I asked who it was for and he said it was for his partner in the buisness, but I could shoot it. I have been absolutely dying to shoot one. I helped him put everyhting on it and we took it to the range. Drew it back on 72lbs, it was stiffer than my Ross but not too bad. The wall was REALLY solid. It shot really good, I liked it alot. Just as I had said no more bows for me this year I'm already considering another. More than likely I'll just wait for the Cardiac to get here and use it for this year. Next year, that's a different story, Getting a Hoyt at cost would be pretty sweet. I might end up trading the 337 for it.

Cougar,
I thought Andy and Angie Ross were hooking you up with that Cardiac?

Yeah the Cardiac is staying put.I meant the 337 but I like it too!I'm done buying bows for this year, I need to keep telling myself that.


Bows are too good these days. I think this Cardiac will be everything I'm hoping for, the only thing I don't like about teh 337 is the wall is a little spongy, but that is to be expected from a single cam.

Well if the Ross family isGIVING you a new Cardiac I probably don't have to bother typing the lengthy response I have in mind?

(Hoping the lightbulb flickers on there my man)

Yeah I wouldn't get rid of it EVER. That Cardiac will be with me until it blows up. I didn't mean to say the Cardiac to begin with, the 337 would be the one to go.

Nevermind........you're missing the point.[&o]

Good luck with whatever bow you wind up shooting.

One of the guys who works there got his Vectrix XL Target bow in the other day and that thing looks SWEET. He got the blue and black one. It's one sharp looking bow. They come with the Silver cams too, Hoyt makes some good looking target bows too. I'll probably get a Hoyt next year assuming I'm still working there.

Cougs...

My shop owner bent over backwards to get me into a Bowtech. I can't tell you the "Deal" I got as a good friend and a good customer.

It wouldn't matter to me if I thought the new Mathews was the bees knees. Somebody went out and put a little faith in me.......did me a good deed. What kind of slap in the face would it be if I took the Bowtech back to buy the Mathews (or kept it and bought the Mathews for that matter)?

These guys give you good advice.
