RE: Anyone Shoot Hoyt
ORIGINAL: Dopler
I've shot every bow there is, I currently own two mathews bows and a Bowtech. I've shot older Hoyt bows and they were decent, but last year, I bought a Trykon and I couldn'r sell it quick enough after extensive shooting. It was by far the worst bow I've ever shot. Finiky, unforgiving, slow as snails andwould not stay in tune, the valley was all over the place too. Yes, it was quiet and no recoil but most bows are nowadays. I've heard this from many other people too. The older Hoyts were good, the new ones are not worth the material they are made with in my opinion, your money could be usedon Mathews, Bowtech, Bear bows, even the new PSE's, anything but Hoyt! Just my honest opinion from a shooter whose shot them all...

RE: Anyone Shoot Hoyt
Although bows feel different in the hands of different archers, I don't see how you could responsibly make such a rash statement about the 2007 Vectrix. Best bow of 2007 in my hands - even though I like the Bowtech Guardian and the Mathews Drenalin - and wound up buying a Reflex for a backup bow.
