RE: Elite GTO, should NOT be overlooked...
Talk one of your buddies into getting one like you were talking about and have them buy one directly from the factory. Come to Jeff's get together in April, and I might be able to bring one for people to try out.

I just bought a new GTO on clearance, $200 off, at my dealer. What a bow.

Boy, this is an oldie ;)
The GTO is a great bow. Until they got discontinued. Still a good bow though. Sounds like you got a deal too. You'll like it. |

Congrats again Don- yeesh. You are the steal of a deal KING!
The GTO was the ONLY bow that caused my local tech/dealer to stop shooting Hoyt for the past 10 years. He's a short draw guy and with cam fiddling was able to get his bow shooting 317 IBO at his 27" draw length. Thats SCREAMING for a 7" brace height and 2FPS faster than I was able to get my GT-500 to shoot at 29/5 grains (albeit a 60 pounder so I'd prolly pick uo 5 or 6 more FPS at 70/5grains). They had a 29" GTO come in that for whatever reason would shoot in the low 350s all day long- but most of them shot in the mid 340s range. After handling one I'll admit there is something EXTREMELY special about that bow compared to the rest of Kevin's bows- It's quieter, it's faster, it's smoother to draw and smoother to shoot, and by all accounts is easy peasy to shoot. The GT-500 comparitively is a step back. Not far, but it is. The tech is back to shooting a Bone Collector AM32 this year as he's a friend of Waddell, but I get the feeling he's not quite as enamored with it after a few weeks shooting it as he is of the GTO. I know for the me the ZTRs on the Alpha take some getting used to compared to a Binary cam bow-probably for him too. Finding the GTOs and XXL bows is fairly easy, but modules are very scarce. |
